Terms & Privacy
Effective date: August 6, 2026
Welcome to the website of The Same Sun ("The Same Sun," "we," "us," or "our"), located at [thesamesun.com] (the "Site"). By accessing or using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use (the "Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the Site.
These Terms govern your use of our marketing website only. Access to and use of any of our software products or services, including SLABB, is governed by separate agreements provided at the time of signup or purchase.
1. Intellectual Property
The Site and all of its content — including text, graphics, logos, images, photographs, illustrations, page layouts, designs, and software — are owned by or licensed to The Same Sun and are protected by United States and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.
You may view, download, and print pages from the Site for your own personal, non-commercial use, provided you keep all copyright and proprietary notices intact. You may not otherwise reproduce, distribute, modify, create derivative works of, publicly display, republish, or exploit any content on the Site without our prior written consent.
"The Same Sun," "SLABB," and our associated logos and marks are trademarks of The Same Sun. Nothing on the Site grants you any license or right to use any trademark displayed on the Site.
2. Acceptable Use
You agree to use the Site only for lawful purposes. You may not:
Use the Site in any way that violates applicable federal, state, or local law;
Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Site, its servers, or any connected systems;
Introduce viruses, malware, or other harmful code;
Scrape, harvest, or collect data from the Site through automated means without our written permission;
Interfere with or disrupt the Site or the servers and networks connected to it; or
Impersonate The Same Sun, our employees, or any other person or entity.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Site at any time, without notice, for conduct that we believe violates these Terms or is otherwise harmful to us or others.
3. Content Submitted to Us
If you submit information to us through the Site — for example, by joining our mailing list or contacting us — you represent that the information you provide is accurate and that you have the right to provide it. Our handling of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy.
4. Third-Party Links
The Site may contain links to third-party websites or services that we do not own or control. We are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of any third-party site. Accessing linked sites is at your own risk, and we encourage you to review their terms and privacy policies.
5. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT ON IT ARE PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY CONTENT IS ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR CURRENT.
6. Limitation of Liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SAME SUN AND ITS OFFICERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES — INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL — ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF, OR INABILITY TO USE, THE SITE, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SITE EXCEED ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation of liability for certain damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you.
7. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless The Same Sun and its officers, members, managers, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to your use of the Site or your violation of these Terms.
8. Governing Law and Venue
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Site will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in [San Francisco County], California, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of those courts.
9. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the effective date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the Site after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.
10. General
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms is not a waiver of that right or provision. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and The Same Sun regarding your use of the Site.

Privacy Policy
Effective date: August 6, 2026 · Last updated: August 6, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how The Same Sun ("The Same Sun," "we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and shares personal information when you visit [thesamesun.com] (the "Site"), and explains the privacy rights available to you, including rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act ("CCPA/CPRA").
This policy covers our marketing website only. Our software products, including SLABB, are governed by separate privacy terms and data processing agreements provided to customers of those products.
1. Information We Collect
Information you provide to us
When you join our mailing list, request information, or contact us through the Site, we collect the information you choose to share — typically your name, email address, company name, and the contents of your message.
Information collected automatically
When you visit the Site, we and our service providers automatically collect certain information about your device and how you interact with the Site, including IP address, browser type, operating system, device identifiers, referring URLs, pages viewed, time spent on pages, and links clicked. This information is collected through cookies, pixels, and similar technologies described in Section 3 below.
Categories of personal information (CCPA/CPRA)
In the preceding 12 months, we have collected the following categories of personal information as defined by the CCPA/CPRA:
CategoryExamplesCollectedIdentifiersName, email address, IP address, online identifiersYesCommercial informationInterest in our products or servicesYesInternet or network activityBrowsing history on the Site, interactions with pages and emailsYesGeolocation dataApproximate location inferred from IP addressYesInferencesPreferences and interests inferred from Site activityYesSensitive personal informationGovernment IDs, precise geolocation, financial account data, health dataNo
We do not knowingly collect sensitive personal information through the Site, and we do not use or disclose personal information for purposes other than those described in this policy.
2. How We Use Personal Information
We use the information we collect to:
Operate, maintain, and improve the Site;
Respond to your inquiries and requests;
Send you newsletters and marketing communications you have signed up for (you can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email);
Understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve content and performance;
Market our products and services, including through advertising on third-party platforms;
Detect, prevent, and address fraud, security, and technical issues; and
Comply with legal obligations.
3. Cookies, Analytics, and Advertising
We use the following categories of cookies and similar technologies on the Site:
Strictly necessary cookies, which are required for the Site to function;
Analytics cookies, provided by services such as [Google Analytics / Plausible], which help us understand how visitors use the Site; and
Advertising cookies and pixels, provided by services such as [Meta Pixel / LinkedIn Insight Tag / Google Ads], which allow us and our advertising partners to measure ad performance and show you relevant ads on other sites and platforms.
You can manage cookies through your browser settings, and you can opt out of the use of advertising cookies and pixels as described in Section 6 below. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect how the Site functions.
Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track
The Site recognizes and honors the Global Privacy Control (GPC) browser signal as a valid request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, as required by California law. Because there is not yet a common industry standard for responding to "Do Not Track" browser signals, the Site does not respond to DNT signals at this time.
4. How We Share Personal Information
We do not sell personal information for money. We share personal information in the following circumstances:
Service providers. We share information with vendors who perform services on our behalf — such as website hosting, email delivery, and analytics — under contracts that restrict how they may use it.
Advertising partners. Through the cookies and pixels described above, information about your activity on the Site may be shared with advertising platforms for cross-context behavioral advertising. Under the CCPA/CPRA, this may be considered "sharing" of personal information, and you have the right to opt out as described in Section 6.
Legal and safety. We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or legal process, or when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others.
Business transfers. If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, or sale of assets, personal information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
In the preceding 12 months, we have disclosed identifiers, internet activity, and inferences to our service providers and advertising partners for the business purposes described above. We have not sold personal information for monetary consideration, and we do not knowingly sell or share the personal information of consumers under 16 years of age.
5. Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy — for example, we keep mailing list information until you unsubscribe, and analytics data for the retention period configured with our analytics provider — unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.
6. Your California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, the CCPA/CPRA provides you with the following rights, subject to certain exceptions:
Right to know. You may request that we disclose the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you, the sources of that information, our purposes for collecting it, and the categories of third parties with whom we have shared it.
Right to delete. You may request that we delete personal information we have collected from you.
Right to correct. You may request that we correct inaccurate personal information we maintain about you.
Right to opt out of sale or sharing. You may opt out of the "sale" of your personal information or its "sharing" for cross-context behavioral advertising.
Right to non-discrimination. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.
How to exercise your rights
You may exercise these rights by:
Emailing us at [privacy@thesamesun.com]; or
Clicking the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link in the footer of the Site to opt out of sale or sharing.
We will need to verify your identity before responding to requests to know, delete, or correct, typically by matching information you provide against information we already hold (such as your email address). You may designate an authorized agent to submit a request on your behalf; we may require proof of the agent's authorization and verification of your identity. We will respond to verifiable requests within 45 days, and may extend that period by an additional 45 days where reasonably necessary, with notice to you.
7. Children's Privacy
The Site is intended for a general business audience and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13, and we do not sell or share the personal information of consumers we know to be under 16. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
8. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the revised policy on this page and update the "last updated" date above. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
