Privacy, plainly
Good boundaries are part of the experience.
The honest version: you can browse Vellum Knot without an account. We use only anonymous analytics, when enabled, to understand which pages are useful — not to build a profile of you.
At a glance
Read the site without signing up or handing over personal details.
Choose whether to email us at the privacy address below.
Leave the site when you follow a retailer link, on your own terms.
Our approach
Enough transparency to make an informed choice.
What we collect
No account is required to read our guides or browse the product edit. We do not ask for your name, email, or other personal details just to visit the site.
When the deployment analytics setting is configured, an optional page-view beacon may create a random browser identifier in local storage under polsia_vid. It sends that identifier with a page-view pixel so we can understand which pages are useful. It is anonymous analytics, not an account or advertising profile.
If you choose to email us, we receive the email address and message you send so we can respond to your privacy question or concern.
Cookies and local storage
You do not need an account or login cookie to browse Vellum Knot. The app does not use advertising cookies.
Local storage is different from cookies. If optional analytics is enabled, the browser may keep the random polsia_vid value described above. You can clear it through your browser settings.
Third parties and retailer links
Vellum Knot currently adds no third-party scripts to the page. If the optional platform analytics beacon is configured, it makes an external request to Polsia for the anonymous page-view measurement described above.
Some product links are affiliate links to independent retailers. Following one takes you away from Vellum Knot, and that retailer's own privacy practices, cookies, and terms apply there. We mark those links clearly and choose them for the context around the product, not for hidden tracking.
What we do not do
Vellum Knot does not sell personal data. We do not require you to create a profile to explore the site, and we do not use advertising cookies to follow you around the web.

We would rather hear from you.
