b. Derivative Data
Information my servers automatically collect when you access the Website, such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, access times, and the pages you have viewed directly before and after accessing the Website. This is standard practice for most websites and helps me understand how visitors use the Website.
c. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
I may use cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels, and other tracking technologies on the Website to help customize the Website and improve your experience. A “cookie” is a small text file that is stored on your computer or device. Cookies help me analyze web traffic, personalize content, and target advertisements. You can control cookies through your browser settings; however, disabling cookies may limit your ability to use certain features of the Website.
Third party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to your website or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to your users based on their visit to your sites and/or other sites on the Internet. Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Ads Settings.

I use third-party services, such as Google Analytics to understand the traffic that this website receives.

3. Disclosure of Your Information
I may share information I have collected about you in certain situations. Your information may be disclosed as follows:
a. By Law or to Protect Rights
If I believe the release of information about you is necessary to respond to legal process, to investigate or remedy potential violations of my policies, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of others, I may share your information as permitted or required by any applicable law, rule, or regulation.
b. Third-Party Service Providers
I may share your information with third parties that perform services for me or on my behalf, including data analysis, email delivery, hosting services, customer service, and marketing assistance. These third parties will only have access to your information as necessary to perform their functions and are contractually obligated to protect your information.

4. Third-Party Websites
The Website contains links to third-party websites, primarily through Amazon affiliate links. Once you have used these links to leave the Website, any information you provide to these third parties is not covered by this Privacy Policy, and I cannot guarantee the safety and privacy of your information. Before visiting and providing any information to any third-party websites, you should inform yourself of the privacy policies and practices (if any) of the third party responsible for that website.
5. Security of Your Information
I use administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your personal information. While I have taken reasonable steps to secure the personal information you provide to me, please be aware that despite my efforts, no security measures are perfect or impenetrable, and no method of data transmission can be guaranteed against any interception or other type of misuse.

The Website is not intended for children under the age of 13. I do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe I have inadvertently collected information from a child under 13, please contact me, and I will promptly delete the information.
7. Controls for Do-Not-Track Features
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature or setting you can activate to signal your privacy preference not to have data about your online browsing activities monitored and collected. No uniform technology standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals has been finalized. As such, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals or any other mechanism that automatically communicates your choice not to be tracked online. If a standard for online tracking is adopted that we must follow in the future, we will inform you about that practice in a revised version of this Privacy Policy.
