Information we collect
Information you give us
- Comments. When you leave a comment we collect the name, email address and website address you enter in the comment form, along with your IP address and browser user agent string. This helps with spam detection.
- Contact form. If you contact us, we collect the name, email address and message you send so we can reply.
- Email subscriptions. If you subscribe to updates, we collect your email address for that purpose only.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, we and our service providers automatically collect certain technical information when you visit, including your IP address, browser type and version, device type, operating system, the pages you view, the time and date of your visit, and the site you arrived from.
Images
If you upload images to the website, avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors can download and extract location data from images on a website.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. We use them for the following purposes.
| Type | Purpose | Set by |
|---|---|---|
| Essential | Keep the site working, remember your cookie choices, and let you leave comments without re-entering your details | This site |
| Analytics | Understand how visitors use the site so we can improve it | Google Analytics |
| Advertising | Serve and measure advertising, and limit how often you see the same ad | Google and its partners |
If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies so you do not have to fill them in again. These last for one year.
You can control cookies through your browser settings and, where a consent banner is shown, through the choices on that banner. Blocking cookies may affect how parts of the site work.
Advertising
This site is supported by advertising.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
- You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- You can opt out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies for personalised advertising by visiting aboutads.info or, in Europe, youronlinechoices.eu.
Third-party advertisers may also place or read cookies on your browser, or use web beacons to collect information, in the course of ads being served on this website. We do not control these cookies and we recommend reviewing the privacy policies of those providers.
You can review Google’s own practices at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how the site is used — which pages are read, how long visitors stay, and which devices they use. This information is aggregated and is not used to identify individual readers. You can opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos or images. Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if you had visited that website. Those sites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that content.
How long we keep your information
- Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely so that follow-up comments can be recognised and approved automatically.
- Contact form messages are kept for as long as needed to deal with your enquiry, and then deleted.
- Email subscriptions are kept until you unsubscribe.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
- Ask us to correct information that is inaccurate
- Ask us to delete personal data we hold about you
- Object to or restrict how we process your data
- Withdraw consent you previously gave
This does not include data we are required to keep for administrative, legal or security purposes. To make a request, email support@sprucednest.com.
Visitors in the European Economic Area and the UK
Where the GDPR applies, our legal bases for processing are your consent (for advertising and analytics cookies, and for email subscriptions), and our legitimate interest in operating and securing the website. You may withdraw consent at any time, and you have the right to lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority.
Visitors in California
Under the CCPA and CPRA, California residents have the right to know what personal information is collected, to request deletion of it, and to opt out of its sale or sharing. We do not sell personal information for money. The use of advertising cookies may be considered “sharing” under California law, and you can opt out using the cookie controls on this site and the advertising opt-out links above.
Children
This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the information we hold, including serving the site over HTTPS and keeping software up to date. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Links to other sites
Our articles may link to other websites. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of those sites, and this policy does not apply to them.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the date at the top of this page. Significant changes will be noted on the site.
