1. Information we collect
- Comments. When you leave a comment, we collect the name, email address, and comment you provide, along with your IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.
- Contact form. When you use our contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the contents of your message so we can respond.

- Cookies. See section 4.
2. How we use your information
We use the information we collect to operate and improve the site, respond to your messages, prevent spam and abuse, and understand which content readers enjoy. We do not sell your personal information.
3. Embedded content from other websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images). Embedded content from other websites behaves as if you visited the other website directly and may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with it.
4. Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use cookies to remember comment-form details (so you don’t have to re-enter them), to keep the site working properly, and for analytics. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings; blocking cookies may affect how the site works.
5. Affiliate links
Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, our affiliate partners may set cookies to track the referral and we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. See our Affiliate Disclosure page for details.
6. Who we share your data with
We share data only as needed to run the site: our hosting provider, email service, and analytics provider, and when required by law. We do not sell personal information to third parties.
7. Data retention
Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize follow-up comments. Contact-form messages are kept as long as needed to handle your request. Analytics data is retained according to Google Analytics settings.
8. Your rights
You may request a copy, correction, or deletion of the personal data we hold about you by emailing info@mysmallnest.com. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe.
