I Am Burnt Out (“we,” “us,” “our”) operates the website at iamburntout.com. We provide a free burnout self-assessment tool based on the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory, along with educational articles and links to digital recovery resources. For questions about this policy, contact us at info@iamburntout.com.
All data you enter into the burnout assessment — your answers to the 19 questions, your scores, your assessment history — is processed and stored exclusively in your browser’s localStorage. This means:
The downloadable PDF report is generated entirely in your browser using the jsPDF library. It is not sent to or stored on any server.
We collect limited, anonymised information through the following third-party services:
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site — which pages are viewed, how long people stay, and where traffic comes from. This data is anonymised and aggregated. It does not include your assessment answers or scores. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Google AdSense
We display advertisements provided by Google AdSense. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our site or other websites. Your assessment data is never shared with Google AdSense. You can opt out of personalised advertising at google.com/settings/ads.
Gumroad
If you click a product link and make a purchase, you will be redirected to Gumroad, a third-party platform. Any personal data you provide during checkout is governed by Gumroad’s Privacy Policy. We receive confirmation of a sale but not your personal payment or contact details.
Google Fonts
We use Google Fonts (Lora and Mulish typefaces) served via Google’s CDN. Google’s servers may log your IP address as part of standard web font delivery. No assessment data is involved.
We do not set our own cookies. Google Analytics and Google AdSense may set cookies on your device for analytics and advertising purposes. These are standard industry cookies and do not contain your assessment data. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.
This site is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect any information from children under the age of 13. If you believe a child has used this site and you have concerns, contact us at info@iamburntout.com.
Because we do not collect or store personal data on our servers, there is no personal data held by us to access, correct, or delete. For any privacy-related enquiries, contact us at info@iamburntout.com.
If you are in the European Union or United Kingdom, you have rights under GDPR/UK GDPR regarding personal data held by third-party services used on this site (Google, Gumroad). Please refer to their respective privacy policies for how to exercise those rights.
This site is operated from South Africa and we take compliance with the Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) seriously. Because we do not collect or process personal information on our own servers, our direct obligations under POPIA are minimal. The anonymised analytics data processed by Google Analytics operates under standard data processing agreements. For any POPIA-related request, contact info@iamburntout.com.
Your assessment data is protected by the security of your own device and browser. The site is served over HTTPS, which encrypts data in transit. We cannot access your localStorage data even if we wanted to.
We may update this policy periodically. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site constitutes acceptance of any changes.
