What we collect

We only collect what you send us. When you use the contact form or subscribe to the newsletter on lytyear.co.za, your submission is delivered to us through Netlify Forms and contains three fields: your name, your email address, and your message.

Why we collect it

Your name and email address are used to reply to your message or to deliver the newsletter you asked for — nothing else. We do not sell your information, rent it out, or use it to build marketing profiles.

Third parties

• Netlify — hosts the site and handles contact and newsletter form submissions.
• Sanity CMS — stores and delivers the review content you read here.
• Google AdSense — serves the third-party advertisements displayed on this site.
• Retailer sites — when you follow an affiliate link to a retailer, their own privacy policy applies from the moment you leave this site.
