Newsletter email
If you subscribe to the Engineering Brief, the address you submit is used to send that newsletter and related operational mail (confirmation or unsubscribe). The form collects email only; language may follow the page locale. Addresses are not sold or used for unrelated marketing.
Analytics
This site may load Plausible, a cookie-less analytics service. The script is included only when a Plausible domain is set in the environment; otherwise no analytics script runs. Plausible does not set cookies. Event properties do not include email or other personal identifiers.
External processors
When newsletter sending is enabled, subscriptions are processed by Buttondown. When analytics are enabled, page-use data is processed by Plausible. Both are independent services with their own policies. Builds without those settings do not send data to those vendors.
Unsubscribe
Each newsletter message should include an unsubscribe link from the email processor. Use that link to stop further mail. If a message is missing a link, use the contact email on this page.
Contact
This site is operated by the AEC Engineering Hub editor as a personal editorial project. It is not a registered company.
No contact email is published on this build. Set PUBLIC_CONTACT_EMAIL at deploy to show a reachable address.
