This policy explains what information TipsForAcne.com (“we”, “us”) collects when you use this website, why, and the choices you have.
Information you give us
- Contact form: your name, email address, topic and message. We use this only to read and reply to your message, and it is stored in our website database.
- Newsletter (if you subscribe): your email address, used only to send the newsletter. Every email includes an unsubscribe link.
Information collected automatically
- Server logs: like most websites, our host records technical data such as IP address, browser type and pages requested, for security and performance.
- Cookies: WordPress may set functional cookies (for example, if you leave a comment). If we add analytics or advertising, we will update this policy and, where required, ask for your consent.
- Affiliate links: if you click a retailer link, that retailer may set its own cookies to attribute a purchase. Their privacy policies apply to their sites.
How we use information
To respond to you, to operate and secure the site, and to understand in aggregate how the site is used. We do not sell your personal information.
How long we keep it
Contact messages are kept only as long as needed to respond and to keep a record of corrections, then deleted. Newsletter data is kept until you unsubscribe.
Your choices and rights
You can ask us to access, correct or delete personal information you’ve given us by using our contact form. Depending on where you live (for example, under the GDPR or U.S. state privacy laws), you may have additional rights, which we will honor.
Children and teens
Much of our content is written to be useful to teens and their parents, but this site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child under 13 has contacted us, let us know and we will delete the information.
Third-party sites
We link to many external sources (for example, PubMed, the FDA and the AAD). We are not responsible for their privacy practices.
Changes to this policy
We’ll update this page when our practices change and revise the date at the top.
