Privacy policy
A plain-language summary of what we collect and why. Last updated October 2026.
Portfolio Hub is a publication. We try to collect as little as possible.
What we collect
When you visit the site, our hosting provider records standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages requested) for security and to understand which articles are read. We may use privacy-respecting analytics to count visits in aggregate. We do not sell this data.
Cookies
We use only the cookies required for the site to function. We do not run advertising trackers.
Your account
If you create a Portfolio Hub account, we store the email address you give us, the page the form was on, the time, and the IP address the form was sent from. We keep the IP address so we can tell a reader apart from a script filling the form in bulk. We use the address for one thing: to write to you when something worth reading ships. We do not sell it, rent it, or pass it to anyone else.
Every email we send carries an unsubscribe link that works in one click, with no login and no form to fill in. Unsubscribing marks your record as closed and stops the mail. If you would rather have the record removed altogether, write to support@portfoliohub.io and we will delete it.
Workspace data
If you use the workspace, we store what you enter there: your initiatives, scores, benefit and cost figures, delivery roles and capacity plan, and the stage gate packs you build. It stays in your account, is used only to run the workspace for you, and is not sold or shared. An export from the workspace takes your portfolio with you, and writing to support@portfoliohub.io gets it deleted.
When you send a question about your own model, the message together with a summary of your portfolio as it stands is mailed to our support inbox so we can answer it, and a copy is kept with your account.
Payments
Plans are paid through a payment processor. Your card details go straight to the processor and never reach our servers. We keep your plan, billing period, subscription status and the processor's customer reference so we can run your subscription, and the invoices and payment records the law requires us to hold.
If you email us, we keep your message so we can reply and so we can correct anything we got wrong. We do not add you to a mailing list without your asking.
Third parties
Some articles link to independent software products that fit the workflow under discussion. If you follow one of those links, that company's own privacy policy applies. We do not share your information with them.
