Who Is Reinette Senum
In 1994, Reinette Senum became the first woman to cross Alaska alone. During this isolated winter solo trek, which she filmed for National Geographic, she learned the power of community. Ultimately, lessons learned along the trail would catalyze her community work later in life.
For the last 20 years, Reinette has focused on building up her hometown of Nevada City, California, as a more prosperous and resilient community. Through risk assessment, public outreach, and a daily hands-on/hard work ethic, she’s been at the forefront of supporting Nevada City and our surrounding areas to prepare for a much more challenging and unpredictable future as a council member, mayor, and community activist.
In July 2020, Reinette stepped down before beginning her third term on the Nevada City City Council (California) after it became apparent local elected leaders and public officials were unwavering in adjusting their COVID-narrative. Reinette responded by resigning from the city council to step up and run for California governor in the 2022 primary election. Today, Reinette has created a nationwide organization called GenSeven and the program known as Save Our Skies.
GenSeven is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization created to educate and motivate citizens throughout the United States to become active in civic engagement and leadership through the strategic use of state referendums, people-powered initiatives, and litigation that support the GenSeven principle; every decision we make today should serve seven generations from now.
The first action GenSeven has undertaken is launching massive legal action against America’s biggest geoengineering perpetrators.

Refund Policy for Newsletter Subscriptions
I’m thrilled to have you as a subscriber and hope you find my writings, political commentary, interviews, and stories both enlightening and entertaining. However, I know that sometimes things don’t work out as planned, so here’s how refunds work for digital newsletter subscriptions:
Subscription Refunds
Eligibility: Because my content is delivered digitally and immediately upon subscription, Stripe generally does not offer refunds for newsletter subscriptions once access has been granted.
Exceptions: If you believe you were charged in error, or if you experience technical issues that prevent you from accessing your subscription, please contact me at reinettesenumsfoghornexpress@substack.com within 7 days of your purchase.
Renewals: Subscriptions renew automatically. If you don’t want to continue, you can cancel anytime before your next billing cycle to avoid future charges. No hard feelings, I’ll miss you, but you’re always welcome back!
Substack’s Privacy Policy for Subscribers
Substack’s privacy policy for subscribers is designed to protect your personal information while enabling the delivery of newsletters and content you sign up for.
What Information Substack Collects from Subscribers
When you subscribe to a newsletter, you typically provide your email address and, optionally, your name. This information is used to send you the newsletter and manage your subscription.
If you subscribe to paid newsletters, payment information is processed by Substack’s third-party provider (currently Stripe). Substack itself does not store your full credit card number, but may receive limited payment details such as your billing name, email, and payment method type.
Substack also collects technical data such as IP address and browser type for analytics and security purposes.
How Your Information Is Used
Your email address and name are used to deliver newsletters and communicate with you about your subscription.
Engagement data (such as whether you open emails or visit the site) may be collected to help publishers understand their audience and improve content.
Payment information is used only to process transactions and manage paid subscriptions.
Who Can Access Your Information
The publisher of the newsletter you subscribe to receives your email address and name (if provided) so they can deliver content and manage their subscriber list.
Substack may share your information with trusted service providers (like email delivery and payment processors) solely to operate the platform and fulfill your subscription.
Substack does not sell your personal information to third parties.
Privacy and Security Measures
Substack uses secure servers, encryption, and SSL technology to protect your data during transmission and storage.
Despite these measures, no system is completely secure, and there is always some risk when sharing information online.
Subscriber Controls
You can unsubscribe from any newsletter at any time via the “Unsubscribe” link in the email footer.
You may request deletion of your data; Substack and the publisher will honor these requests except where retention is required for legal or record-keeping purposes.
For paid subscriptions, be aware that your payment processor (Stripe) may, by default, share your phone number and address with the publisher unless you adjust your Stripe privacy settings.
Additional Notes
Substack retains your information only as long as needed to provide the service or as required by law. If you unsubscribe, your email may be retained on an opt-out list to prevent further contact.
If you have privacy concerns or want to exercise your rights (such as data deletion), you can contact Substack at privacy@substackinc.com17.
