Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 2026

At The Gooderie, your privacy matters to us. This page explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what choices you have. We’ve written it in plain language because we think that’s what you deserve.

Information We Collect

We collect information in a few different ways depending on how you interact with the site.

Information you give us directly. If you fill out our contact form or sign up for our newsletter, we collect the information you provide, such as your name and email address. We use this only to respond to you or send you content you’ve asked for.

Information collected automatically. Like most websites, we collect certain information automatically when you visit, including your IP address, browser type, the pages you visit, and how long you spend on them. We use this data to understand how our site is being used and to improve it.

Cookies. We use cookies, which are small text files stored on your device, to help the site function properly and to analyze traffic. You can instruct your browser to refuse cookies, though some parts of the site may not function as intended if you do.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to operate and improve the site, respond to your messages, send newsletters if you’ve subscribed, and understand how our content is performing. We do not sell your personal information to anyone, ever.

Third Party Services

Google Analytics. We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site. Google Analytics collects information such as how often you visit, what pages you view, and what site you came from. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics is restricted by their terms of service and privacy policy, available at google.com/policies/privacy.

Amazon Associates. We participate in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. When you click an Amazon link on our site and make a purchase, Amazon may use cookies to track that referral. Amazon’s privacy policy is available at amazon.com/privacy.

Other affiliate programs. From time to time we may link to other retailers through affiliate programs. Those retailers have their own privacy policies governing any information collected when you visit their sites.

Email & Newsletter

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address for the sole purpose of sending you content you’ve asked for. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link at the bottom of any email we send. We do not share your email address with third parties.

Children’s Privacy

The Gooderie is not directed at children under the age of 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child, please contact us and we will remove it promptly.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we’ll update the date at the top of this page. We encourage you to check back periodically.
