This Privacy Policy explains what information outsideyears.com (“Outside Years”, “we”, “us”) collects when you visit the site and how it is used.

Information we collect

  • Information you send us. 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.
  • Technical information. Like most websites, our hosting provider and security tools automatically process technical data such as your IP address, browser type and the pages you request. This is used to deliver the site, keep it secure and prevent abuse.
  • Cookies. The site may set cookies needed for it to work correctly (for example, caching and security). Third-party services described below may also set cookies.

Third-party services

  • Amazon Associates. When you click an Amazon link, Amazon may set cookies to attribute your purchase to us. Amazon’s handling of your data is governed by the Amazon Privacy Notice.
  • Hosting and security. The site is hosted by Hostinger and protected by Wordfence, which process technical data to keep the site available and secure.
  • Analytics. We may use privacy-respecting analytics, such as Google Search Console, to understand which pages people find useful. These tools report aggregated information.

If we add advertising (such as Google AdSense) or new analytics in the future, we will update this policy before doing so.

Children’s privacy

Outside Years is written for parents and adults. The site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
