Operator contact

Losstoday is operated by Torrey Line LLC. Contact the operator by phone: (619) 601-7105. For privacy questions or content complaints, email hello@torreyline.com. Contact emails are handled through the operator's custom CRM inbox and response automation. The operator hosts that system separately from Losstoday on their own servers. The operator reports that email handling, forwarding and AI-assisted response drafting are self-hosted. Response drafts require the operator's approval before they are sent. Do not send passwords or recovery codes.

The operator reports that CRM contact emails, AI response drafts and CRM backups are retained indefinitely. To request removal of CRM contact records, email hello@torreyline.com. This CRM retention practice is separate from website account records and hosting logs. Sending a request is not confirmation of deletion.

Cookies & browser storage

The first-party session cookie supports sign-in, request protection, and the server's anonymous identifier. The lt_ui cookie remembers the selected interface. Browser storage remembers preferences described below. These controls are not a sale/sharing opt-out or a global cookie blocker. Your browser settings can clear site cookies and storage; doing so may sign you out and reset preferences.

No advertising or analytics tracking scripts are enabled by Losstoday. Dismissing the cookie notice does not consent to tracking or accept terms. The lt_cookie_notice browser-storage value remembers only dismissal of this notice revision; clearing it or changing the notice revision makes the notice appear again. You can reopen it with Cookie notice in the footer. If browser storage is blocked, dismissal lasts only for the current page.

Do Not Track & Global Privacy Control

Losstoday does not change its collection or storage behavior in response to Do Not Track (DNT) browser settings. No advertising or analytics tracking scripts are enabled by Losstoday. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control are different signals; neither is the Remember this browser preference below.

Global Privacy Control is a browser signal requesting an opt-out of sale or sharing of personal information. When detected, its status appears below. This notice does not enable advertising or analytics, and is not a sale/sharing opt-out mechanism. External publishers have their own practices; the browser-storage control below does not block their cookies.

Losstoday stores browser preferences in localStorage. The Remember this browser control applies only to persistence of lt_home_order, lt_home_order_bad, and lt_home_order_good. Turning it off removes those three keys from localStorage. It also removes any legacy/local anon_id key. Later writes to these protected keys stay only in memory for the current page instance. The legacy/local anon_id key is not the active server anonymous identifier.

This control does not disable localStorage, clear or prevent other preferences, or disable the lt_ui localStorage value or first-party lt_ui cookie. Theme, motion, font size, region, interface, widget layout and state, pins, dismissals, and other browser preferences may continue to persist. The anonymous identifier used by the server is stored in the first-party Flask session cookie. This control does not clear that identifier; it remains until the session is cleared or expires.

External content & sources

Third-party images can contact outside services while the dashboard loads. Website view loads the publisher's page in an embedded browser frame, where that publisher's privacy practices apply. Reader view requests an extracted copy through Losstoday's server; it may not contain interactive or complete source content. Original-source links open the publisher directly. These services may receive connection information such as your IP address, and browser cookie settings can affect embedded content. Source attribution is retained; some sources only support opening the original.

External image hosts and publishers may collect information about your activity over time and across websites under their own privacy practices. Losstoday's browser preferences and notice dismissal do not control those services. Feed requests to Reddit, USGS and NASA go through Losstoday's server; this page does not preconnect your browser to those three feed providers. Unnecessary connection hints to them are not used.

Account & community data

Creating an account submits your username, email, password and selected avatar color. Posts, comments, chat and messages submit the content you write. Public community content can be read by other visitors. Direct messages are stored to provide the inbox; they are not public community posts. Settings contains the account and content controls available to you; removal does not erase every retained record.

Download Account Data in Settings provides your profile, saved account preferences, watchlist and retained authored comments, profile posts, forum content and chat. It excludes private inbox content, credentials, security records, other users' records and browser-only settings. It is not a complete response to every privacy request; contact the operator for other retained-data questions.

Public profiles and public comments remain visible to other visitors. Profiles include your username, display name, avatar, membership month, online status and recorded time on the site, plus public comment counts and recent public comments and profile posts. Online status is derived from last-seen activity; the raw last-seen timestamp is not shown in the public profile response. Avoid putting private information in public profile fields or community content. Profile-visibility and mention restrictions are not implemented. Older browser preference flags for those switches did not restrict access.

Review, correction & removal requests

When signed in, Settings lets you review or change your username, email, display name and avatar color, and change your password. Download Account Data and the removal controls have the limits described above and below. They do not clear external publishers' records or every record retained by Losstoday.

For other requests concerning review, correction or removal of your information, email hello@torreyline.com. Describe the request and relevant account or content, without including passwords, recovery codes or identity documents. You do not need to create an account to contact the operator. Sending an email does not itself verify account ownership or authorize release of another person's information. Automated CRM responses are not confirmation that a request has been completed.

Service providers & operational data

Account security and operation can record IP addresses, login and signup events, last-seen activity, and account preferences. When configured, Mailboxlayer receives the submitted email address for validation, and IPStack receives an IP address for location lookup. This can produce country, region, city and IP-derived coordinates; it is not a request for your device's GPS location. Passwords and recovery codes are stored as hashes rather than their original text.

The daily-summary job can send selected public-feed fields to OpenAI to generate a short summary. This job does not send account records or private inbox messages. Generated summaries can be incomplete or inaccurate; check the original source before relying on them.

Google Cloud hosts the application and operational logs; the production account database uses PostgreSQL. Administrator views include account and activity totals. These are not counts of unique website visitors. Removing an account or profile content does not erase every public community record or operational log, and does not necessarily remove provider backups. For questions about retained data or a removal request, use the contact email above. Do not send passwords or recovery codes by email.
