At magusbear.com, privacy is treated as part of hospitality.
If you contact me, join the mailing list, book a session, or spend time reading the site, I want you to know what information may be collected, how it may be used, and how carefully it is handled. The short version is simple: I do not sell, rent, trade, or casually share your personal information. Your trust matters.

Astrology Session Information
Astrology consultations sometimes involve personal material: birth data, biographical details, relationship questions, vocational concerns, timing questions, and other matters of life and meaning.
This information is treated respectfully and confidentially. It is not shared publicly, sold, or used for marketing without your permission.
If anonymized examples are ever used for teaching, writing, or illustration, identifying details will be removed or altered unless explicit permission has been given.

These services may process limited information as necessary to provide their function. Where possible, we aim to use reputable services that handle personal information responsibly.
How Long Information Is Kept
Personal information is kept only as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including providing services, maintaining records, responding to inquiries, or meeting legal and administrative obligations.
You may contact me to ask whether I hold personal information about you, to request a correction, or to request deletion where appropriate.
