This Privacy Policy explains how FrugalLiving Guides (“we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information when you visit frugallivingguides.com (the “Site”). We keep this simple and honest: we collect very little, and we never sell your personal information.
Information we collect
Information you give us. If you email us (for example at hello@frugallivingguides.com), we receive your email address and whatever you choose to write. We use it only to reply to you.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our Site and its service providers may automatically collect standard technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and the time and date of your visit. This is used to keep the Site secure and to understand, in aggregate, how it’s used.
Cookies
The Site may use cookies and similar technologies. Cookies are small files stored on your device that help the Site function, remember preferences, and measure traffic. Third parties we work with (see below) may also set cookies.
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect how parts of the Site work.
Advertising
We may display advertising on the Site, including through Google AdSense and other advertising partners. These partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to our Site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings (myadcenter.google.com) or www.aboutads.info.
- For more on how Google uses data, see policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Analytics
We may use analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use the Site in aggregate. These services may collect information such as pages viewed and general location, and may use cookies to do so.
Third-party links
Our articles may link to other websites. We’re not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any site you visit.
How we use information
We use the limited information described above to operate and secure the Site, respond to your messages, understand aggregate usage, and display advertising that helps keep the Site free.
Data retention
We keep information only as long as needed for the purposes above, or as required by law.
Children’s privacy
The Site is intended for a general, adult audience and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights over your personal data — such as accessing, correcting, or deleting it, or objecting to certain processing. To make a request, email us at hello@frugallivingguides.com and we’ll do our best to help.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we’ll revise the “Last updated” date above. Significant changes will be reflected on this page.
