PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Your records remain yours.

The website and the workbook serve different purposes. Participation does not require publishing your private household records.

Your saved setup guide

The website saves the setup-guide steps you reviewed, skipped or chose to continue later. This lets you resume on another device. It does not upload your inventory, record an Excel installation or calculate a household readiness score.

Website registration and verification

Registration stores your email, a securely hashed password, required terms and privacy versions, verification state and security audit records. Verification links are random, hashed in the account store, single-use and valid for 24 hours. Queued email contents are encrypted outside the public directory. General referral attribution is recorded only for the intended verified recipient. Registration creates no private household or group access, paid benefits or unrestricted download eligibility.

Necessary security cookies protect registration and sign-in. Expired pending credentials and email contents are purged by the maintenance worker. Public launch requires approved contact and retention policies and tested email delivery.

Private invitation requests (migration fallback)

The request form collects an email address, optional display alias, broad interest and consent confirmation. The private review queue also records submission time, review status and the reviewing administrator. These details support access review and a response through a trusted channel.

Requests are stored outside the public website directory. Authorized platform administrators can review them. The public form does not reveal whether an email is already registered or has requested access, and does not send automatic email.

Member referrals

Referral tools store the sender, category, private household/group context, intended recipient email, expiry, submission and review decisions. Only the sender and appropriately authorized reviewers can inspect those records. A private link reveals only its category and expiry, never household or group identity. A recipient submits their intended email with consent; a matching signed-in account is distinguished from an unverified anonymous submission. Tokens are hashed at rest, expire after seven days and cannot be resubmitted. No payment or financial incentive is active.

Private household records

Your workbook holds detailed inventories, finances, medical information and named assessments. These are not automatically uploaded to the website or published to groups.

Optional cooperation

Only approve information you intend to share with a particular group. Separate permissions and keys protect different groups. Encryption does not expand permission to disclose information. Previously decrypted or downloaded information cannot be guaranteed to be recalled.

Cookies and operational records

This website uses necessary security cookies for sign-in and invitation-form protection. The invitation form cookie expires after 30 minutes; sign-in sessions are limited in duration. Hosting and security controls may retain operational logs and abuse-limiting records. No advertising or analytics tracker is added by these visitor pages.

Corrections and account questions

Contact your known program administrator through your existing trusted channel to correct or withdraw a request. If you do not yet have an administrator contact, use the request form to request access review. Do not send sensitive household details.
