This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit our website, how we use that information, the choices you have, and your rights regarding your data. We encourage you to read this policy carefully so you understand our practices.

1. Information We Collect

Information You Provide Directly

We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide to us. This includes:

• Newsletter subscription: When you sign up for our newsletter, we collect your email address so we can deliver curated room design, hairstyle, and nail art inspiration directly to your inbox.
• Contact form submissions: If you reach out through our contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the content of your message in order to respond to your inquiry.

• IP address (anonymized for analytics purposes)
• Browser type and version (e.g., Chrome 126, Firefox 128)
• Operating system (e.g., Windows, macOS, iOS, Android)
• Referring website — the page that linked you to GlowDailyHub
• Pages visited and time spent on each page
• Device type (mobile, desktop, or tablet)

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• Delivering newsletter content — sending you the design inspiration, styling tips, and nail art ideas you signed up for.
• Responding to inquiries — replying to questions or feedback submitted through our contact form.
• Analyzing website traffic — understanding which content resonates with our audience so we can improve and expand our articles.
• Displaying relevant advertisements — serving ads through Google AdSense that may be tailored to your interests.
• Preventing abuse and ensuring security — protecting our website from spam, unauthorized access, and malicious activity.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We do not use your data for purposes unrelated to those described above.

3. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. We use several types of cookies on GlowDailyHub:

Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for the website to function. They include your theme preference (light/dark mode) and session cookies that maintain your state as you navigate between pages. Without these cookies, parts of the website would not work correctly. These cookies do not collect personal information and cannot be disabled.

Analytics Cookies

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website — which pages are most popular, how long people spend reading, and where traffic comes from. All data collected through analytics cookies is anonymized and aggregated. We use IP anonymization so your full IP address is never stored by Google Analytics.

Advertising Cookies

Google AdSense places cookies on your device to serve advertisements that are relevant to your interests. These cookies may track your browsing activity across multiple websites in order to build a profile of your preferences and show you ads that are more likely to be useful to you. You can opt out of personalized ads at any time (see Section 4 below).

Third-Party Cookies

Pinterest Save buttons and social sharing widgets embedded on our pages may set their own cookies when you interact with them. These cookies are governed by Pinterest's own privacy policy, not ours.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies, set preferences for specific websites, or browse in a private/incognito mode that automatically clears cookies when you close the window. Please note that disabling essential cookies may affect the functionality of our website. For detailed instructions, refer to your browser's help documentation.

4. Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on GlowDailyHub. Google, as a third-party advertising vendor, uses cookies and web beacons to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other websites across the internet. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your browsing patterns.

You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can visit www.aboutads.info to opt out of third-party cookies used for personalized advertising. For more information about how Google handles your data in advertising, please review Google's Privacy Policy.

5. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to collect statistical information about how visitors use GlowDailyHub. Google Analytics uses cookies to gather data such as the number of visitors, the pages they visit, and the time they spend on each page. This information is processed in aggregate form and does not identify individual visitors.

We have enabled IP anonymization in Google Analytics, which means your IP address is truncated before being stored. Google Analytics data is retained for 26 months, after which it is automatically deleted.

If you prefer not to be tracked by Google Analytics, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, which prevents your browsing data from being sent to Google Analytics.

6. Newsletter Subscriptions

When you subscribe to the GlowDailyHub newsletter, we collect your email address for the sole purpose of sending you periodic updates featuring our latest room design ideas, hairstyle trends, and nail art inspiration. Here's what you need to know:

• You can unsubscribe at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link included at the bottom of every email we send.
• We do not sell, rent, or share your email address with any third parties for marketing purposes.
• Your email address is stored securely in our database with appropriate access controls.
• We send emails on a reasonable schedule and will never spam your inbox.

7. Pinterest Integration

GlowDailyHub includes Pinterest Save buttons and widgets that allow you to pin our images directly to your Pinterest boards. When you interact with these features — such as hovering over a Pin button or saving an image — Pinterest may collect information about your activity, including your IP address, browser type, and the URL of the page you're viewing.

This data collection is governed by Pinterest's Privacy Policy, not ours. We encourage you to review Pinterest's policy if you have questions about how they handle your data.

8. Third-Party Links

Our articles and inspiration galleries may contain links to external websites, including product retailers, design resources, beauty supply stores, and other content creators. These links are provided for your convenience and reference. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or data collection policies of any third-party websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of every website you visit.

9. Data Retention

We retain your data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy:

• Newsletter data: Your email address is retained for as long as you remain subscribed. Once you unsubscribe, your email is removed from our active mailing list within 30 days.
• Analytics data: Google Analytics data is retained for 26 months, which is the default retention period. After this time, data is automatically deleted on a rolling basis.
• Contact form data: Information submitted through our contact form is retained for up to 12 months and then permanently deleted.

10. Your Rights (GDPR)

If you are located in the European Union or the European Economic Area, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) grants you the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Right of access: You can request a copy of all personal data we hold about you.
• Right to rectification: You can ask us to correct any personal data that is inaccurate or incomplete.

11. Children's Privacy

GlowDailyHub is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect, store, or process personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected data from a child under 13, we will take immediate steps to delete that information from our systems. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us at privacy@glowdailyhub.com so we can take appropriate action.

12. Data Security

We take the security of your personal data seriously. We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include:

• HTTPS encryption: All data transmitted between your browser and our servers is encrypted using TLS/SSL.
• Secure database storage: Personal data is stored in databases with restricted access and regular backups.
• Access controls: Only authorized personnel have access to personal data, and only when necessary for legitimate operational purposes.

While no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal information.

13. Changes to This 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 make changes, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information.
