Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 27, 2026
1. Information We Collect
The Modern Hearth does not require account creation. We collect only information you voluntarily provide through our contact form (name and email address), and standard server logs (IP address, browser type, pages visited) retained for security purposes. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties.
2. Cookies and Analytics
We use privacy-respecting analytics to understand how readers find and use our content. These tools may set first-party cookies on your device. We do not use cross-site tracking cookies or fingerprinting technologies. You may disable cookies in your browser settings without affecting your ability to read our content.
3. Affiliate Links
Some links on this site are affiliate links. When you click these links and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission from the retailer at no additional cost to you. Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial opinions. All affiliated links are clearly disclosed on the pages where they appear.
4. Third-Party Links
Our articles link to third-party retailers and product pages. These sites have their own privacy policies, which we do not control. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any site you visit from ours.
5. Data Retention
Contact form submissions are retained for up to 12 months and then permanently deleted. Server logs are retained for 30 days for security purposes.
6. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you. To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@modernhearth.co. We will respond within 30 days.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the 'last updated' date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
