WHAT INFORMATION DOES THIS SITE COLLECT?
NEWSLETTER OR BLOG
If you voluntarily sign up for my newsletter or blog, this site will record your email address. You can refuse to supply personal information, but that will exclude you from certain related activities such as receiving newsletters, blogs, and free offers. When subscribers click on a link in one of my emails or fills out a form, the site may record this information (see below how this information is used).
Subscribers may unsubscribe at any time. You may ask for all your data to be deleted at any time.
GIVEAWAYS AND CONTESTS
If you enter a giveaway, your email address is collected. If you win a physical prize, you will be asked to give your name and physical address.
NON-PERSONAL INFORMATION
This website may collect non-personal information about visitors when they interact with the site. This information may include the browser name, means of connection to the site, and other non-identifying information.
COMMENTS
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
COOKIES
This website may use “cookies” to enhance visitor experience. Typically, cookies may be placed on visitors’ hard drive for record-keeping purposes and sometimes to track information about them. Visitors may choose to set their web browser to refuse cookies, or to send an alert when cookies are being sent. If they do so, note that some parts of the site may not function properly.
EMBEDDED CONTENT FROM OTHER WEBSITES
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.
HOW IS THE INFORMATION USED?
Newsletter and blog subscribers’ names and emails will only be used for receiving the newsletters, the blog, or communication from me.
Giveaway entrants will be sent emails only about the giveaway, unless they also signed up for the newsletter or blog.
Information on which email links are clicked on the most will help me choose links that interest readers in future emails.
I may use affiliate codes in some of the emails or on the site.
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
Subscriber information is never shared with a third party. The only exception is that email addresses may occasionally be used to create lookalike audiences for online marketing. This in no way distributes the emails or signs subscribers up to any other services.
THIRD-PARTY LINKS
Sometimes I will include third-party links through email or on the website. These sites have their own policies and you should read those before subscribing or purchasing from them.
SECURITY OF INFORMATION
All information is saved by bluehost.com and wordpress.com, and only I can access it. Should a data breach ever occur, subscribers will be notified within 7 days.
USE OF THE WEBSITE BY MINORS
All subscribers must be 18 or older or have the consent of a parent or guardian.
CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY
I may update this Privacy Policy at any time. A notice about such changes will be emailed to subscribers. You acknowledge and agree that it is your responsibility to review this Privacy Policy periodically and become aware of modifications.
