This Privacy Policy explains what information TrayGrown (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects when you visit traygrown.xyz (the “Site”), how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to this policy.
Information we collect
Information you give us
- Comments: if you leave a comment, we collect the name, email address and website (optional) you enter, the comment itself, your IP address and browser user-agent string to help detect spam. Your email address is never published.
- Emails: if you contact us by email, we receive your email address and whatever you choose to include in your message. We use it only to reply.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, our hosting provider and software automatically record standard log information, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, referring page and the date and time of your visit. We use this to keep the Site secure and working properly and to understand which guides are useful.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored in your browser. We and our partners use them for the following purposes:
- Essential cookies — for example, remembering your comment details if you choose, or keeping you signed in if you have an account.
- Analytics cookies — if enabled, analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) help us understand how visitors use the Site in aggregate.
- Advertising cookies — used by advertising partners, described below.
You can control or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how the Site works.
Advertising and Google AdSense
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google and other third-party vendors use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this Site and other websites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this Site and/or other sites on the internet.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings.
- You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info/choices or, in Europe, www.youronlinechoices.eu.
- To learn more about how Google uses information from sites that use its services, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, we ask for your consent before personalized advertising cookies are used, through a consent message shown on your first visit. You can change your choice at any time using the privacy settings link provided by that message.
How we use information
We use the information described above to:
- operate, maintain and improve the Site;
- respond to your messages and comments;
- understand which content is useful;
- display advertising that helps keep the Site free;
- protect the Site against spam, fraud and abuse.
We do not sell your personal information.
Sharing information
We share information only with service providers that help us run the Site (such as our hosting provider, spam protection, analytics and advertising partners), when required by law, or to protect our rights and the safety of others.
Data retention
Comments and their metadata are kept indefinitely so that follow-up comments can be approved automatically, unless you ask us to delete them. Emails are kept only as long as needed to handle your request. Server logs are kept for a limited period by our host.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of your personal information, to object to processing, and to withdraw consent. California residents may have additional rights under the CCPA/CPRA, including the right to know and to delete. To make a request, email us at contact@traygrown.xyz. We will respond within the time required by law.
Children’s privacy
The Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
Links to other websites
Our guides may link to other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites and encourage you to read their policies.
Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information, including serving the Site over HTTPS. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however.
