Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 15, 2026

The short version: We collect minimal data, we never sell your information, and you're always in control. This policy explains the details clearly and plainly — no legal jargon, no surprises.

1.

Information We Collect

We collect information you give us voluntarily — such as your email address when you subscribe to our newsletter — and information gathered automatically when you visit our site.

Automatically collected information may include:

  • IP address and general location
  • Browser type and device
  • Pages visited and time spent
  • Referring website or search term
2.

How We Use Your Information

We use information collected to provide and improve our content, send our newsletter to subscribers, and understand how readers engage with Gathered Days.

We do not use your information for automated decision-making, profiling, or any purpose beyond what is described here.

3.

Cookies & Tracking

We use minimal cookies necessary for site functionality and anonymous analytics (via Google Analytics). These help us understand which topics resonate with readers so we can write better content.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time. This will not affect your ability to read our content.

4.

Third-Party Services

We use a small number of trusted third-party services: Google Analytics for site metrics, and an email service provider to send our newsletter. These services have their own privacy policies and operate independently.

Some articles may contain affiliate links. Clicking these links and making a purchase may earn us a small commission at no extra cost to you. We only link to products we'd genuinely recommend.

5.

We Never Sell Your Data

We do not sell, rent, trade, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. Your email address is used only to send you the newsletter you subscribed to — full stop.

6.

Your Rights

You have the right to access, correct, or delete any personal information we hold about you. You can unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time using the link in any email we send.

For GDPR (EU) or CCPA (California) requests, please contact us directly. We'll respond within 30 days.

7.

Children's Privacy

Our site is intended for parents and adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. If you believe a child has submitted information to us, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

8.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we'll update the date at the top of this page. Continued use of our site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
