Disclosure
All opinions are my own and any sponsored or paid posts will always be clearly marked. Outward links to retailers will sometimes be affiliate links. An affiliate link is a link to a retail website that has been encoded with a tracking cookie. The cookie notes for a period of time if you have made a purchase (or returned that purchase) after you’ve clicked one of my links. Cookie durations range from 1 day to 4 weeks depending on the retailer. To date all of mine have ranged from 3 days to 7 days. The website you’ve made your purchase from keeps track via a unique code that tracks back to me if you clicked my affiliate link. My code allows me to earn a commission on the sale generated from my links, within a certain time period. Any commisions earned are clawed back with returns or price adjustments. It is in my interest to only recommend items that readers will ultimately be very happy with and want to keep. It is always my goal to inspire, not instigate sales. The commission I earn, or my contributors earn on their own links does not cost you anything, nor does it change the price of the item you are purchasing, or my opinions. This simply supports my blog in a way that allows me to blog daily and allows me to maintain my site with its associated costs. I will post links that are relevant and available to items I mention or show on my posts but this in no way guarantees that my review or my opinion on that item will be favorable or positive. You may love an item that I hate, or I may love an item that you hate. My aim with this blog is to be informative by providing my reviews, critiques, and recommendations for items I love or use.
Contributor on this site may at times use their own affiliate links earning their own commisions, while always following and maintaining my affiliate link values.
Personal Data
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.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics and to track our traffic behaviour, understand which pages are being read, where readers are linking from, where they are, how long they are spending on certain pages, and other information that helps us understand how our readers use our site. We do not use additional parameters within the application to attribute users browser profiles with other elements of their usage, device or location data, or other identity markers. In addition, we randomize IPs within Analytics to further prevent attribution.
