This Privacy Policy describes how Pet Decoded (“we,” “us,” or “the site”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit petdecoded.com.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information you provide directly, such as your name and email address when you sign up for our newsletter or contact us. We also collect standard technical information automatically through analytics tools, such as your browser type, general location, and pages visited, which helps us understand how the site is used.
2. How We Use Your Information
- To send the newsletter and content you’ve signed up for
- To respond to questions, comments, or corrections you submit
- To understand which content is useful and improve the site
- To operate affiliate links and track referrals where applicable (see our Affiliate Disclosure)
3. Newsletter & Email
If you subscribe to our newsletter, your email is stored with our email service provider and used only to send you the content you signed up for. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email we send.
4. Cookies & Analytics
We use cookies and similar technologies for basic site functionality and to understand traffic patterns through analytics tools. You can disable cookies through your browser settings, though this may affect how the site functions.
5. Affiliate Links
Pet Decoded participates in affiliate programs, including the Amazon Associates Program. When you click certain links and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. This does not affect the information collected about you beyond standard referral tracking used by the affiliate program itself.
6. Information Sharing
We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share information with service providers who help us operate the site (such as our email or hosting provider), who are required to keep that information confidential.
7. Children’s Privacy
Pet Decoded is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
8. Your Rights
You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information at any time by contacting us. You can also unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time.
9. Data Security
We use reasonable measures to protect the information we collect, though no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.
