<h2>Privacy Policy</h2>
<p><strong>Last updated: 29 July 2026</strong></p>
<p>NurtureNewborn (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates the website nurturenewborn.site. This page explains what information we collect, why we collect it, and what your rights are.</p>
<h3>Information We Collect</h3>
<p><strong>Information you give us directly.</strong> If you subscribe to our newsletter or contact us, we collect the name and email address you provide. We do not require you to create an account to read anything on this site.</p>
<p><strong>Information collected automatically.</strong> Like most websites, we automatically receive standard technical information when you visit: your IP address, browser type and version, device type, operating system, the pages you view, the time and date of your visit, and the referring website. This data is aggregated and is not used to identify you personally.</p>
<h3>Cookies</h3>
<p>Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use them for the following purposes:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Essential cookies</strong> — required for the website to function correctly. These cannot be disabled.</li>
<li><strong>Analytics cookies</strong> — we use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site, which pages are most useful, and where people encounter problems. This helps us improve our content.</li>
<li><strong>Preference cookies</strong> — remember choices you have made, such as dismissing a notice.</li>
</ul>
<p>You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect how parts of the site function.</p>
<h3>How We Use Your Information</h3>
<ul>
<li>To send our newsletter, if you have subscribed</li>
<li>To respond to messages you send us</li>
<li>To understand which content is useful and improve the site</li>
<li>To monitor and address technical issues and security concerns</li>
</ul>
<p>We do not sell your personal information. We do not rent or trade mailing lists.</p>
<h3>Third-Party Services</h3>
<p>We use the following third-party services, each of which has its own privacy policy:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Google Analytics</strong> — website traffic analysis</li>
<li><strong>Email service provider</strong> — newsletter delivery, if you have subscribed</li>
<li><strong>Hosting provider</strong> — server infrastructure and security</li>
</ul>
<h3>Affiliate Links</h3>
<p>Some pages on this site may contain affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. This never influences which products we recommend — we recommend things because we believe they are genuinely useful. Where affiliate links appear, they are disclosed on the page.</p>
<h3>Data Retention</h3>
<p>We keep newsletter subscriber data until you unsubscribe. Contact form messages are retained for up to 24 months. Aggregated analytics data is retained according to Google Analytics default settings.</p>
<h3>Your Rights</h3>
<p>Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:</p>
<ul>
<li>Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you</li>
<li>Request correction of inaccurate data</li>
<li>Request deletion of your data</li>
<li>Object to or restrict how we process your data</li>
<li>Withdraw consent at any time, including unsubscribing from emails</li>
<li>Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority</li>
</ul>
<p>To exercise any of these rights, contact us through our contact page.</p>
<h3>Children’s Privacy</h3>
<p>This website is intended for adults — parents, caregivers, and family members. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 16. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.</p>
<h3>Security</h3>
<p>We use SSL encryption across the site and take reasonable technical measures to protect the information we hold. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.</p>
<h3>Changes to This Policy</h3>
<p>We may update this policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised “last updated” date. Significant changes will be communicated to newsletter subscribers.</p>
<h3>Contact</h3>
