We are committed to respecting your privacy and protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy is intended to meet the general requirements of privacy laws in the United States and Europe, including the EU/UK General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and certain U.S. state privacy laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”), where they apply.

By using the Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not access or use the Site.

2. Information We Collect

We may collect personal and non-personal information about you in various ways when you use the Site, including:

2.1 Information You Provide Directly

  • Contact information: such as your name and email address when you contact us, subscribe to a newsletter, comment on a post, or otherwise communicate with us.
  • Content you submit: such as comments, messages, feedback, survey responses, or other information you choose to provide.

2.2 Information Collected Automatically

When you visit the Site, certain information is collected automatically by cookies, pixels, and similar technologies. This may include:

  • Usage data: pages visited, links clicked, time spent on pages, referring/exit pages, and other actions taken on the Site.
  • Device and technical data: IP address, browser type and version, operating system, device identifiers, approximate location (based on IP), and similar technical information.

This data is often collected through third-party analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) and is typically aggregated and de-identified, but may still be considered personal data in some jurisdictions.

2.3 Information from Third Parties

We may receive information about you from third parties, including:

  • Email marketing and newsletter providers (if you sign up through a hosted form).
  • Advertising and affiliate partners that provide us with information about clicks, conversions, or commissions related to links on the Site.
  • Embedded content providers (such as YouTube, Instagram, or other platforms) that may collect information when you interact with embedded content.

3. How We Use Your Information

We may use the information we collect for the following purposes:

  • To operate, maintain, and improve the Site and our content.
  • To communicate with you, including responding to your comments, questions, and requests.
  • To send newsletters, updates, or marketing communications if you have subscribed or otherwise consented.
  • To analyze how the Site is used, monitor performance, and understand our audience.
  • To personalize your experience and show relevant content, recommendations, or offers.
  • To detect, prevent, and address technical issues, fraud, or security incidents.
  • To comply with legal obligations and protect our rights, property, and safety or that of others.

4. Legal Bases for Processing (EU/UK Visitors)

If you are located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”), the United Kingdom, or another region with laws governing data collection and use, we process your personal data under one or more of the following legal bases:

  • Consent: where you have given us explicit consent (e.g., to receive marketing emails or to accept non-essential cookies).
  • Legitimate interests: to operate and improve the Site, communicate with you, and perform analytics, where our interests are not overridden by your rights and freedoms.
  • Performance of a contract: where processing is necessary to provide services or content you have requested.
  • Legal obligations: where processing is necessary to comply with applicable laws, regulations, or legal processes.

5. Cookies, Tracking Technologies & Analytics

We use cookies, pixels, and similar tracking technologies on the Site to:

  • Recognize your browser or device.
  • Remember your preferences and settings.
  • Understand how you use the Site and improve performance.
  • Provide analytics and, where applicable, show ads or measure the effectiveness of marketing campaigns.

Some cookies are essential for the Site to function (for example, for security or basic performance). These are typically set without your prior consent. Other cookies, such as those used for analytics or advertising, are considered non-essential in many jurisdictions and may require your consent.

When required by law (such as in the EU/UK), we will ask for your consent to use non-essential cookies via a cookie banner or similar mechanism. You can manage your cookie preferences through the tools provided on the Site and by adjusting your browser settings.

We may use third-party services (such as Google Analytics) that set cookies or similar technologies. These third parties may collect or receive information about your use of the Site and other websites. For more information, please refer to their respective privacy policies.

6. How We Share Your Information

We do not sell your personal information in the traditional sense (i.e., for money). We may share your information in the following limited circumstances:

  • Service providers: We may share information with trusted third-party service providers who help us operate the Site and perform functions on our behalf, such as hosting, analytics, email delivery, and customer support.
  • Advertising and affiliate partners: We may share limited information with advertising or affiliate partners as necessary to track referrals, clicks, conversions, and commissions related to links on the Site. In some jurisdictions, this type of sharing may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information for targeted advertising.
  • Legal and safety: We may disclose information when required by law or in response to lawful requests, and to protect our rights, privacy, safety, or property, and that of our users or others.
  • Business transfers: If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable laws.

We take reasonable steps to ensure that any third parties who receive your information are subject to appropriate confidentiality and data protection obligations.

7. International Data Transfers

The Site is operated from the United States, and your information may be stored and processed in the U.S. and other countries that may not provide the same level of data protection as your home jurisdiction.

Where required by applicable law (such as GDPR), we implement appropriate safeguards for international data transfers, which may include standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or other lawful transfer mechanisms.

8. Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including:

  • To operate the Site and provide content and services to you.
  • To comply with legal obligations (for example, tax, accounting, or regulatory requirements).
  • To resolve disputes and enforce our agreements.

When we no longer have a legitimate business need to process your personal data, we will delete or anonymize it, or, if that is not possible (for example, due to backup archives), we will securely store your data and isolate it from further processing until deletion is possible.

9. Your Rights (EU/UK Visitors)

If you are located in the EEA, UK, or other regions with similar laws, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data, subject to certain conditions and exceptions:

  • Right of access: to obtain confirmation as to whether we process your personal data and to request a copy.
  • Right to rectification: to request correction of inaccurate or incomplete personal data.
  • Right to erasure: to request deletion of your personal data in certain circumstances.
  • Right to restrict processing: to request that we limit processing of your personal data in certain cases.
  • Right to data portability: to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format and to request transmission to another controller, where technically feasible.
  • Right to object: to object to processing based on our legitimate interests, including profiling, and to object to direct marketing.
  • Right to withdraw consent: where processing is based on your consent, you may withdraw that consent at any time.
  • Right to lodge a complaint: with a supervisory authority if you believe our processing of your personal data violates applicable law.

To exercise your rights, please contact us at privacy@kizzykingston.com. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling your request.

10. Your Rights (U.S. Residents)

Depending on where you live in the United States, you may have certain privacy rights under state laws (such as in California, Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, and others). These rights may include:

  • Right to know/access: to request information about the categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected, used, or disclosed about you.
  • Right to delete: to request deletion of certain personal information we hold about you, subject to legal exceptions.
  • Right to correct: to request correction of inaccurate personal information.
  • Right to opt out of “sale” or “sharing”: to opt out of certain disclosures of your personal information that may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” for targeted advertising under applicable laws.
  • Right to non-discrimination: we will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.

To exercise these rights, please contact us at privacy@kizzykingston.com with “Privacy Request” in the subject line and provide enough information for us to reasonably verify your identity.

If we engage in activities that constitute “selling” or “sharing” personal information under California or other state laws, we will provide additional mechanisms (such as a “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link) to allow you to opt out of such activities as required by law.

11. Do Not Track

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) setting that you can activate to signal your preference not to be tracked online. There is currently no universally accepted standard for how to respond to DNT signals. Accordingly, we do not respond to DNT signals at this time. We will review developments and may update this policy if standards for responding to DNT emerge.

12. Children’s Privacy

The Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at privacy@kizzykingston.com, and we will take steps to delete such information as required by law.

13. Affiliate & Sponsored Content Disclosure

KizzyKingston.com participates in affiliate programs and may include affiliate links to products and services. This means we may earn a commission if you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase, at no additional cost to you. We also may work with brands or partners to publish sponsored content.

We strive to clearly identify affiliate links and sponsored content in accordance with applicable advertising and endorsement guidelines (such as those from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission and similar authorities in other jurisdictions). Our opinions and recommendations are our own and are not influenced solely by compensation.

14. Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect the personal information we collect. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

15. Third-Party Links

The Site may contain links to third-party websites, services, or content that we do not own or control. This Privacy Policy does not apply to third-party websites or services. We recommend that you review the privacy policies of those third parties to understand their data practices.

16. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technologies, legal requirements, or other factors. When we do, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the Site after any changes to this Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
