+carries this copy's contact id and change number (`contact_id`, `contact_rev`,
+see below), so removing or changing the address later takes back the
+follow-up permission given with the report too.

+## Contact email (optional)
+
+Frame Control never needs an email address. If you'd like to leave one, there
+are two separate choices, both off until you tick them:
+
+| Choice | What it's for |
+|---|---|
+| **Email me about Frame Control updates** | Occasional notices about new releases and updates |
+| **The maintainer may contact me with follow-up questions** | Questions about problem reports you send, mostly |
+
+You're asked once, in a bar at the top of the page, after the Frame has
+connected for the first time, and never in the same visit as the first-run
+privacy notice. **No thanks** hides it for good, and it isn't
+shown again even if you ignore it. **Contact email** in **Privacy & updates**
+is where you add, change or remove the address and either choice at any time.
+
+**What's sent, and where.** The address and the two choices go privately to
+Frame Control's PostHog project, the same place as problem reports, as a
+`contact_consent` event with `email`, `updates`, `followup`, `action` (`set`
+or `withdraw`) and the common properties above. Only the maintainer can read
+that project, and nothing in it is published or shared. It's sent only when
+you save, or when you send a problem report with follow-up questions ticked,
+whatever the analytics settings are, because you chose to. With a report, the
+address and choices are saved before the report is sent and stay saved if it
+fails; like any change, they're sent as soon as PostHog can be reached. It
+carries its own random contact id, not the analytics id, so it isn't linked
+to your usage events, and a `rev` number that goes up with each change, so
+the newest choice always wins. Like everything else sent, it's listed under
+**Show what's been sent**. On this computer the address and choices are kept in
+`contact/contact.json` in Frame Control's data folder. An address is only
+kept with at least one choice ticked.
+
+**Removing it.** **Remove my email** (or clearing the address and saving)
+deletes it from this computer, including from the **Show what's been sent**
+log (in earlier contact events and problem reports), and sends a `withdraw`
+event with no address in it. The maintainer's list only uses the newest event from each copy, so from
+then on the address isn't listed for either choice. Unticking one choice
+works the same way for that choice. This also covers problem reports you sent
+from this copy with follow-up questions ticked: if your newest choice since the
+report (by change number, not the clock) no longer agrees to follow-up
+questions at that address, the maintainer's inbox shows the permission as
+withdrawn and leaves the address out. If you're offline, the change waits on
+this computer and is sent when PostHog can be reached. The earlier event
+stays in PostHog until its data retention removes it; to have it deleted
+sooner, ask the maintainer (for example in a problem report).
+
+Nothing sends email yet: this only records who agreed to what. The
+maintainer lists the addresses with
+`python3 ui/frame_report.py contacts [updates|followup]`, which uses the same
+personal API key as `inbox`.
+
 ## Turning it all off
 
 Untick the boxes, or set `DO_NOT_TRACK=1` or `FRAME_CONTROL_TELEMETRY=0` in
 the environment that starts Frame Control. A copy run from a source checkout
-never sends anything unless `FRAME_CONTROL_TELEMETRY=1` is set.
+never sends analytics unless `FRAME_CONTROL_TELEMETRY=1` is set.
+
+These switches cover the analytics above. A problem report or a contact email
+is sent only because you pressed its Send or Save button, so those still go
+when you choose to send them (a contact change saved while offline is sent
+by itself once PostHog can be reached); if you don't, nothing is sent.

+removing the address sends a withdrawal with no address in it, and wipes the address from
+the local log of what was sent. The maintainer lists who agreed to what with
+`python3 ui/frame_report.py contacts`. Nothing here sends email.

+A change that can't be sent (offline) waits in the state file and is retried in the
