At my website, I only collect the bare minimum of anonymous information necessary to improve the site. If you sign up for my newsletter, I will securely hold onto your email address and only use it for that purpose. I do not distribute this list to anyone else, and it is only shared with trusted third-party platforms, such as Squarespace or Mail Chimp, to manage my subscriber lists.

I also use third-party analytics, specifically Google Analytics, to collect anonymous user data. This helps me understand how visitors engage with my website and which content is preferred.

Additionally, I use third-party cookies to gather website analytics that provide me with insights about my audience, including age, gender, and location. This information helps me to serve my audience better.

If you do not want to participate in Google Analytics, you can opt-out without affecting your browsing experience. Your browser can also block or delete third-party cookies.

You have the right to request a copy of any personal information that I hold about you, and to request that it be corrected if you believe it is incorrect. Please contact me at kris@kristinakroot.com if you would like to request a copy of your information or if you need it corrected.
