Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Life Done Pretty uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — and similar tracking technologies to collect information about your browsing behavior on our site.
Google Analytics. We use Google Analytics to track and analyze site traffic and user behavior. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information such as how often users visit the site, what pages they visit, and what other sites they used prior to coming to our site. We use this information to improve our content and understand our audience. Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit the site, not your name or other identifying information. We do not combine the information collected through Google Analytics with personally identifiable information. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy, available at policies.google.com/privacy.
Pinterest. We use Pinterest widgets and the Pinterest Save button on our site. Pinterest may collect information about your visit to our site when you interact with these features. Pinterest’s data practices are governed by Pinterest’s Privacy Policy, available at policy.pinterest.com.
Email service provider. We use a third-party email service provider to manage our email list and send newsletters. This provider may use cookies and tracking pixels to track email open rates and click-through rates. Please refer to your email service provider’s privacy policy for more information.
Managing cookies. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some features of our site. Most browsers also allow you to review and delete cookies through the browser’s settings. You may also opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Affiliate Disclosure and Third-Party Links
Affiliate links. Life Done Pretty participates in affiliate marketing programs, including but not limited to the Amazon Associates Program and other affiliate networks. This means that when you click certain links on our site and make a qualifying purchase, we may earn a small commission at no additional cost to you. We only recommend products and services we genuinely believe in and that are consistent with the content and values of this site. The presence of an affiliate link does not influence our editorial content or recommendations.
This disclosure is made in compliance with the Federal Trade Commission’s guidelines concerning the use of endorsements and testimonials in advertising, as set forth in 16 CFR Part 255.
Third-party links. Our site may contain links to third-party websites, including retailers, manufacturers, and other resources. These third-party sites have their own privacy policies, and we have no responsibility or liability for their content or activities. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any third-party site you visit through a link on our site.
Email Communications
If you subscribe to our email list, we will use your email address to send you newsletters, content updates, digital product announcements, and affiliate recommendations consistent with what you signed up for. Each email we send will include an unsubscribe link. You may also unsubscribe at any time by contacting us directly at LifeDonePretty@gmail.com.
We use a third-party email service provider to manage our email list. Your email address and name are stored on that provider’s servers. We will never share, sell, or rent your email address to any third party.
Digital Products and Purchases
If you purchase a digital product through our site, your payment information is processed by a third-party payment processor. We do not store your credit card number or other payment information on our servers. Please refer to your payment processor’s privacy policy for information on how your payment data is handled.
We may retain your name and email address associated with a purchase in order to deliver the product, provide customer support, and send you related updates.
Display Advertising
We may use display advertising on this site, including Google AdSense or advertising served through a premium ad network such as Mediavine or Raptive. These advertising partners may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to serve ads based on your browsing history and interests. This is known as interest-based or behavioral advertising.
You may opt out of interest-based advertising from Google by visiting Google’s Ads Settings at adssettings.google.com. You may also opt out of interest-based advertising from many participating companies by visiting the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out page at optout.aboutads.info or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page at optout.networkadvertising.org.
Children’s Privacy
Life Done Pretty is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without verifiable parental consent, we will take steps to remove that information from our servers.
California Privacy Rights
If you are a California resident, you have the right under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) to request information about the categories of personal information we collect about you, the purposes for which we use that information, and the categories of third parties with whom we share that information.

International Visitors and GDPR
Life Done Pretty is operated from the United States. If you are visiting from the European Union, European Economic Area, or other regions with laws governing data collection and use that may differ from United States law, please note that you are transferring your personal information to the United States, which does not have the same data protection laws as your country.
If you are located in the European Union or European Economic Area, you have certain rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information, the right to restrict or object to our processing of your personal information, and the right to data portability.

We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Email subscribers’ information is retained until they unsubscribe or request deletion. Analytics data is retained according to the retention settings configured in Google Analytics.

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.
