Privacy
What ChoreHacks stores when you visit, vote, share a prompt or sign up for email, and which outside services handle it.
Last updated October 23, 2026.
When you visit a page
We log each page view with the page, the date, the site that sent you, your browser's user agent and any campaign tags in the link (utm tags). We use this to count visits and to spot bots.
We don't store your IP address. We store a one-way hash of it, mixed with a secret value, so the same visitor can be counted without keeping the address itself.
We also use Cloudflare Web Analytics to count visits.
Cookies
We set two small cookies, and neither is used for ads.
- rv holds a random ID for 24 hours when you vote, share a prompt or send a sponsor message. It stops repeat votes and spam.
- pv_skip lasts 10 seconds after you open a link with campaign tags, so that visit isn't counted twice.
Spam checks on forms
The email signup, Share a prompt and Sponsor forms use Cloudflare Turnstile to check that a person is filling them in. Turnstile loads only when you start filling in one of these forms, or when the signup box appears after you copy a prompt. It runs in your browser and sends its result to Cloudflare. Cloudflare's privacy policy covers it.
Email signups
When you sign up for The Monday Chore List, we store your email address, the page you signed up from and the dates you signed up and confirmed. We send one email asking you to confirm, and nothing else until you do.
Every newsletter has a one-click unsubscribe link. When you use it, we mark your address as unsubscribed and stop sending to it. To limit abuse, we keep a hash of your IP address for one day after a signup attempt.
Our emails are sent through Resend, an email delivery service.
Sharing a prompt or sending a sponsor message
The Share a prompt form stores the title, category, app, prompt, description, source link and, if you give it, your email address. We never show your email on the site.
The Sponsor form stores your name or company, email address, website and message.
Both forms also store a hash of your IP address and the rv cookie ID, to limit spam.
Votes
When you tap "This worked for me", we store the vote with the date, a hash of your IP address and the rv cookie ID, so each person counts once a day.
Questions
Send us a message with the form on the Sponsor page.
