At The Alabaster Home, we believe privacy is a form of respect. This page explains in plain language what information we gather when you visit, how we use it, and the choices you have.
At a glance
- We automatically log your IP address, browser type, and the pages you view.
- Advertising partners place cookies to show you relevant ads.
- We never sell your personal data.
- You have rights under European (GDPR) and Californian (CCPA) law, and you can contact us anytime.
Information we collect automatically
When you browse our site, our server records:
- Your public IP address
- Browser and operating system version
- Date and time of your visit
- The pages you visit and the time spent on each
We do not collect your name, email, or other identifying information unless you choose to reach out.
Advertising cookies
To keep our content free, we work with third‑party advertising networks. These partners use cookies and similar technologies to:
- Serve ads tailored to your interests
- Limit how many times you see the same ad
- Measure campaign performance
These cookies collect pseudonymous data such as cookie IDs and browsing patterns. No personal contact information is stored in them.
How we use the data
- To keep the website secure and stable
- To understand which content resonates (aggregate statistics)
- To enable ad delivery and reporting through our partners
No sale of personal information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to anyone. The anonymous data shared with advertising partners is used solely for ad serving and aggregated measurement.
Data retention
Server logs are automatically deleted after 90 days. Cookie data retention is governed by each advertising partner’s privacy policy.
Your rights under GDPR (EU/EEA visitors)
If you are in the European Economic Area, you may:
- Request access to your personal data
- Ask for corrections or deletion
- Restrict or object to processing
- Receive your data in a portable format
- Withdraw consent for advertising cookies
To exercise these rights, email [email protected]. We will respond within 30 days without charge.
Your California privacy rights (CCPA)
California residents have the right to:
- Know what categories of personal information we collect and the business purpose
- Request the specific pieces of information we hold
- Ask us to delete your data
- Opt out of the sale of personal information (we do not sell data)
We will not discriminate against you for exercising your CCPA rights. Please send your request to [email protected].
Cookie controls
You can manage cookies directly from your browser. Look for settings under “Privacy” or “Security” to delete existing cookies and block new ones. Disabling cookies may affect the relevance of ads but not your ability to browse the site.
Security
We employ technical and organizational measures to protect your data. However, no online platform can guarantee absolute security.
Children’s privacy
This site is not intended for anyone under 16. We do not knowingly collect data from children.
International transfers
Advertising partners may process data outside the EU/EEA; where they do, they are bound by Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent safeguards.
Policy updates
We may revise this policy periodically. The “Last updated” date at the top indicates the latest version. For significant changes, we will post a notice on our homepage.
