Simple Pet Guide (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website simplepetguide.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.
Information We Collect
We collect two kinds of information:
- Information you give us. If you subscribe to our newsletter or contact us by email, we receive the email address and any details you choose to share.
- Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we automatically receive standard log data such as your browser type, device, approximate location (from your IP address), referring pages, and how you interact with the Site. This is collected through cookies and similar technologies.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies are small files stored on your device. We and our partners use them to remember your preferences, understand how the Site is used, and serve relevant advertising. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some features of the Site may not work as intended.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the Site. Google Analytics collects information such as pages visited, time spent, and general location, using cookies. This helps us improve our content. You can opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Advertising
We display advertising to support the Site. Our advertising partners, which may include Google AdSense and Google-certified third-party vendors, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
- Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies (including the DoubleClick DART cookie) to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- You can also opt out of third-party vendor cookies at aboutads.info/choices and youronlinechoices.eu.
As the Site grows, we may work with additional advertising networks such as Mediavine. These networks and their partners may also use cookies and device identifiers to deliver and measure ads. When such a partnership begins, their vendor list and privacy practices will apply alongside this policy.
Affiliate Links
Some links on the Site are affiliate links, including links through the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. This means we may earn a commission if you click a link and make a purchase, at no additional cost to you. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. See our Disclaimer for full details.
Email Newsletter
If you subscribe, we use your email address to send pet care tips, product ideas, updates, and related content. Every email includes an unsubscribe link, and you can opt out at any time. We do not sell your email address.
How We Use Information
We use the information we collect to operate and improve the Site, respond to your messages, send our newsletter (if you subscribed), display relevant advertising, and keep the Site secure.
Third-Party Links
The Site contains links to other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third-party sites and encourage you to read their privacy policies.
Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights over your personal information:
- EU/UK (GDPR): You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data, and object to certain processing. To exercise these rights, email us at hello@simplepetguide.com.
- California (CCPA/CPRA): California residents may request disclosure or deletion of personal information we hold. We do not sell your personal information.
Children’s Privacy
The Site is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age in your country), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Data Retention and Security
We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes described here, and we take reasonable measures to protect it. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes take effect when posted on this page, with the “Effective date” updated above.
