Privacy Policy

What we collect

• Newsletter email: only if you type it into a signup form.
• Basic usage data: pages visited and referring links, used to decide what to write next.

We do not ask for, or want, your payment information. Purchases happen on Amazon.

Analytics and cookies

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand which guides people read. It sets cookies and is only loaded after you accept the cookie notice shown at the bottom of the site. Decline it and no Google Analytics script is ever loaded. You can change your mind by clearing this site’s stored data in your browser.

We also keep our own anonymous counter of article views and outbound product-link clicks. It stores no cookies, no IP addresses and no identifiers — only the article, the product, whether the link was a direct or search link, and a coarse device type. Because it cannot identify you, it runs regardless of cookie choice.

Affiliate tracking

When you click an Amazon link on this site, Amazon may set cookies to attribute a purchase to us. That tracking is controlled by Amazon under their own privacy policy, not ours.

Third parties

We rely on our hosting and database provider to run this site, on Google Analytics for consent-based traffic measurement, on Brevo for newsletter delivery, and on the Amazon Associates program for affiliate links. We do not sell personal information.

Your choices

You can unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time, block cookies in your browser, and request deletion of any email address you gave us.

Children

This site is intended for adults and is not directed at children under 13.
