Privacy policy
How The Brew Plan handles your information: private tools, cookie-free visit counts, the newsletter, the coffee club, custom orders and our shop.
Last updated November 10, 2026
We keep this simple because we collect very little.
Coffee tools
Everything you enter into our calculators, quiz, Latte Lab, menu maker and brew timer stays in your browser. It isn't sent to a server or stored by us. A few tools remember your last result, drink, menu or brew log in your browser's local storage so they're there next time; clearing your browser data removes them. Share images are created on your device. Share links contain your drink or menu settings in the link itself, and the Pin it button opens Pinterest, whose own privacy policy applies.
Cookies and analytics
thebrewplan.com does not use cookies, tracking pixels or ads. We do count visits, using Cloudflare Web Analytics from our web host. It records the page, the site that sent you, your country, your type of device and browser, and how quickly the page loaded, but it sets no cookies, doesn't follow you to other sites and doesn't build a profile of you. Its small script is the only third-party script we load. Our fonts are hosted on this site. A few pages show product photos loaded from our shop's image host (Shopify). The club member site works a little differently (see Coffee club below).
Newsletter
Our newsletter is run by Beehiiv. If you subscribe, the email address you enter is sent to and stored by Beehiiv so we can send you emails. Beehiiv's privacy policy applies to that data. You can unsubscribe at any time with the link in every email.
Shop and other sites
Shop orders happen in our shop, The Three Good Things, and coffee club plans and gifts are paid through Stripe on our club site. Either way, we never see your full card number. When you follow a link to another site (for example our shop, Beehiiv, Pinterest or our sister sites Steady Sums, The Paw Plan and The Page Plan), that site's own privacy policy applies.
Health information
Our caffeine calculator and related content are for general information only and are not medical advice.
Paid links
Some links on this site may be paid links. When you click one, you leave our site. The company you visit, or the network that tracks the link, may place or read cookies in your browser to record that you came from us, so it can pay us a commission. That happens on their site and is covered by their privacy policy. Any network we work with will be listed on our disclosure page, with a link to its privacy policy. If we ever show a partner's product box on a page, that partner may serve the content, collect information directly from you, and place or read cookies. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, and you can opt out of interest-based ads at optout.aboutads.info and optout.networkadvertising.org.
Custom order requests
If you send a custom order request, the details you enter (your name, email, phone number if you add one, delivery city and state, the order details and any files you upload) are emailed to our shop inbox so we can reply with a quote. We keep that email as our record and don't add it to any other list. If you go ahead with the order, we share your design and delivery details with our print partner so it can make and ship your items.
Coffee club
If you join or gift the Coffee Passport Club, we keep your name, email, shipping address, plan and any coffee ratings or notes in your club account, stored with our hosting provider. Our roasting partner receives the name, shipping address and email for each box so it can ship it and send tracking. Club emails, including a couple of reminder emails for Founding Members, are sent through our email service. If you buy a gift, we use the recipient's name and shipping address to send their boxes, and we show your gift message to them on their private gift page. Payments are handled by Stripe, so we never see your full card number. The member site (club.thebrewplan.com) uses two small cookies: one keeps you signed in, and one protects its forms. It also loads its fonts from Google Fonts. None of this is used for tracking or ads.
Do Not Track
We don't track you across other websites, so there's nothing for a Do Not Track signal to switch off on our side. Affiliate networks may collect information about your activity over time and across sites; their own privacy policies explain how they handle Do Not Track.
Children
This site is meant for adults. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
