Privacy Policy & Affiliate Disclosure

Effective Date: November 1, 2026

Welcome to brooklynspinster.com. This Privacy Policy outlines how your personal information is collected, used, and shared when you visit or interact with the site. By using this website, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

1. Amazon Affiliate Disclosure

brooklynspinster.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

This means that if you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase, I may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you. I only recommend products I genuinely use and trust.

2. Other Affiliate Programs

In addition to Amazon, brooklynspinster.com may participate in various other affiliate marketing programs. If you click on a link to a third-party product or service and make a purchase, a commission may be earned. These affiliate relationships do not influence the editorial content, reviews, or recommendations on this site.

3. What Information Is Collected

When you visit the site, certain information may be collected automatically or voluntarily provided by you:

  • Voluntary Data: If you leave a comment, subscribe to a newsletter, or contact me directly, you may be asked to provide your name, email address, or website URL.
  • Automated Data: Like most websites, standard analytics tools are used to collect data about your device, including your IP address, browser type, time zone, and the pages you view.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

This website uses cookies to improve your browsing experience.

  • WordPress Cookies: If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies so you do not have to fill them in again next time. These last for one year.
  • Analytics & Affiliate Cookies: Third-party services (like Amazon or Google Analytics) may place cookies on your browser to track the success of affiliate links or analyze site traffic. You can disable cookies at any time through your individual browser settings.

5. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, social media widgets). 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.

6. How Your Information is Shared

Your personal information is never sold to third parties. Information may be shared with trusted service providers who assist in operating the website (such as website hosting through Hostinger or email delivery services), subject to strict confidentiality agreements.

7. Your Data Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, update, or request the deletion of the personal data collected about you. If you have left comments on this site or have an account, you can request an exported file of the personal data held about you, or request its deletion (excluding any data required to be kept for administrative, legal, or security purposes).

8. Changes to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated periodically to reflect changes in practices, legal requirements, or operational updates. The revised policy will be posted on this page with an updated “Effective Date.”
