This Privacy Policy explains what information Botanical Glow Shop (“we,” “us”) collects when you visit botanicalglowshop.com, how we use it, and the choices you have. We keep data collection to a minimum: you can read everything on this site without creating an account or giving us any personal information.

- Affiliate link clicks. We use a link management tool so we can count how many times our affiliate links are clicked. It may record basic information about the click, such as the time, the link clicked, and browser type.
- Cookies. See the Cookies section below.
How we use information

Cookies
Cookies are small files stored in your browser. This site uses:
- Comment cookies. If you leave a comment, you can choose to save your name, email, and website in a cookie so you don’t have to re-enter them. These last for one year.
- Essential cookies used by WordPress and our hosting provider for security and site performance.

Affiliate links and third parties
Botanical Glow Shop is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. We may also participate in other affiliate programs.
When you click an affiliate link and visit a retailer’s site, third parties, including Amazon and other affiliate partners, may place and read cookies on your browser, or use web beacons and similar technologies, to collect information and attribute purchases to our site. Their use of that information is governed by their own privacy policies, not this one. See our Affiliate Disclosure for more on how we earn money.
Embedded content
Articles may include embedded content (for example videos or images) from other websites. Embedded content behaves exactly as if you visited the other website, which may collect data about you, use cookies, and track your interaction with that content.
Gravatar
If you comment, an anonymized string created from your email address (a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check whether you have a profile picture. The Gravatar privacy policy is available at automattic.com/privacy.
How long we keep information
- Comments and their metadata are kept indefinitely so follow-up comments can be approved automatically.
- Emails are kept as long as needed to respond and for our records.
- Server logs are kept for a limited period by our hosting provider.
