Who we are

Our website address is: https://anchoredathome.com.

At AnchoredAtHome.com, we recognize that privacy of your personal information is important. Here is information on what types of personal information we receive and collect when you use and visit AnchoredAtHome.com, and how we safeguard your information.  We never sell your personal information to third parties.

What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Contact forms

We will save and store your information and message that you submit through contact forms. If you do not want your name and email and website recorded on AnchoredAtHome.com, please do not leave a message on our contact forms.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

We do use cookies to store information, such as your personal preferences when you visit the site.  [This could include only showing you a popup once in your visit, or the ability to login to some of the features, such as forums.]

We also use third party advertisements on AnchoredAtHome.com to support the site.  Some of these advertisers may use technology such as cookies and web beacons when they advertise on the site, which will also send these advertisers (such as Google through the Google AdSense program) information including your IP address, your ISP, the browser you used to visit the site, and in some cases, whether you have Flash installed.  This is generally used for geotargeting purposes (showing Texas store ads to someone in Texas, for example) or showing certain ads based on specific sites visited (such as showing cooking ads to someone who frequents cooking sites).

You can chose to disable or selectively turn off the cookies or third-party cookies in your browser settings, or by managing preferences in programs such as Norton Internet Security.  However, this can affect how you are able to interact with this site as well as other websites.  This could include the inability to login to services or programs, such as logging into forums or accounts.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Analytics

Who we share your data with

We share your name and email and messages with our email service provider, MailerLite, for our own marketing purposes. Google analytics also collects information about your visit.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Opting Out

If you don’t agree with these policies, you should not access, comment on, or share this site.

You can opt out of any email marketing at anytime by contacting Anchored At Home, LLC directly (privately through email or direct messaging on social media sites) or by automatically unsubscribing from the email service provider for newletters and the resource library.  The email service provider may take some time for your email that is associated with AnchoredAtHome.com to be removed so you do not receive any more emails and I am not responsible for this lapse in time from unsubscribing to not receiving any email.

Where we send your data

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Additional information

How we protect your data

We take security measures on this site, including a security plugin on WordPress. Our computers have normal security programs to prevent spam, access to admin profiles, and computer breaches.

Your name and email, if submitted, are protected by our email service provider’s data protecting procedures.

Liability Clause

We are not responsible for anything that occurs from you implementing or reading the information presented on this site. We cannot be held liable if injuries or mental distress occurs from you visiting this site. This information is presented for informational purposes only and is not to be taken as advice from a professional.

Updates to this Policy

We reserve the right to update this policy at any time without notice to past or future readers. It is your responsibility to read this policy.  We may attempt to publicly post about any changes to this policy, but we can change this policy without notice.
