Newfangled (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website frontier.newfangled.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what choices you have.
We take your privacy seriously. We collect only what we need to respond to your inquiries, improve our services, and measure the effectiveness of our marketing. We do not sell your personal information directly, though we may share data with advertising platforms as described below.
Information We Collect
Information You Provide Directly
When you fill out our contact form or subscribe to Frontier Notes, we collect the information you provide, which may include:
- Your name
- Your email address
- Your firm name
- Your firm type and size
- Your area of interest (e.g., Frontier Audit, Frontier Foundations)
- Any additional information you include in the message field
We collect this information solely to respond to your inquiry and, if you subscribe, to send you Frontier Notes when new issues are published.
Information Collected Automatically
When you visit the Site, certain information is collected automatically by our hosting provider and any analytics tools we use:
- Log data: Your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, and the date and time of your visit. Our hosting provider (WP Engine) collects this as part of standard server operations.
- Cookies: We use essential cookies required for the Site to function, and may use third-party analytics and advertising cookies. See the Cookies section below for details.
Information We Do Not Collect
We do not collect payment information through the Site. Any invoicing or payment for services is handled separately and outside this Site.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- To respond to your inquiries. When you submit the contact form, we use your information to follow up with you directly. A real person on our team will reply — we do not use automated sales sequences.
- To send Frontier Notes. If you subscribe, we will send you new issues of Frontier Notes as they are published. Nothing else.
- To improve the Site. We may use aggregated, non-identifying analytics data to understand how visitors use the Site and to make improvements.
- To maintain security. Our hosting provider uses log data to protect the Site from malicious activity.
How We Share Your Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. We share your information only in the following limited circumstances:
- Service providers. We use third-party services to host the Site (WP Engine), and may use services for email delivery and analytics. These providers process data on our behalf and are contractually obligated to protect your information.
- Analytics and advertising platforms. We may share data with third-party analytics and advertising platforms (such as Google, Meta, and LinkedIn) through cookies and tracking pixels. These platforms may use this data to provide us with insights about Site traffic and ad performance, and may combine it with other information they hold about you. See the Cookies section for opt-out options.
- Legal requirements. We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request.
- Business transfers. In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We would notify you of any such change.
Cookies
The Site uses only essential cookies necessary for the website to function. These include:
- WordPress session cookies. Used for basic site functionality. These are temporary and expire when you close your browser, or within a short defined period.
- Cookie consent preferences. If we implement a cookie banner, a cookie may be stored to remember your consent choice.
We may also use:
- Third-party tracking cookies. We may use cookies from analytics and advertising platforms (such as Google Analytics, Meta, or LinkedIn) to understand how visitors find and use the Site, and to measure the effectiveness of our marketing efforts. These cookies may track your browsing activity across other websites.
- Social media tracking pixels. We may use pixels or similar technologies from social media platforms to measure ad performance and build audiences for advertising on those platforms. These tools may collect information such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited.
You can manage or disable third-party cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling cookies may affect your experience on the Site. For opt-out options specific to advertising platforms, visit:

Embedded Content
Pages on the Site may include embedded content from other websites (such as videos). Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you visited that website directly and may set their own cookies or collect data. We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of any third-party services whose content appears on the Site.
Data Retention
- Contact form submissions. We retain the information you submit through our contact form for as long as needed to respond to your inquiry and maintain the business relationship. If no engagement results, we delete your information within 24 months.
