At Wholesome Cove, your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains how Wholesome Cove collects, uses, discloses, and protects information when you visit or interact with this website. You can learn more about who runs this site on our About page.
Information We Collect
We may collect the following types of information:
Personal Information
You may voluntarily provide personal information, such as your name and email address, when you subscribe to our newsletter, contact us, or interact with the site.
Non-Personal Information
We automatically collect certain non-personal information, including IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and referring URLs. This data is collected through cookies, Google Analytics (GA4), and similar technologies to help us understand how visitors use the site. GA4 uses cookies and similar identifiers to compile aggregated and, in some cases, pseudonymous reports about site traffic and visitor behavior. You can opt out of Google Analytics using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, or by managing your cookie preferences through this site’s consent tool.
Newsletter & Email Communications
If you subscribe to the Wholesome Cove newsletter, we collect and store your email address (and any other information you voluntarily provide through the subscription form) on our own website. We use SendPulse as an SMTP service provider to deliver these emails on our behalf. SendPulse’s delivery tracking is enabled for our account, meaning it may record information such as email opens and link clicks to help us understand engagement with our newsletters. You can unsubscribe from our emails at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link included in each message.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Operate and maintain our website
- Improve content quality and user experience
- Respond to inquiries and provide support
- Send newsletters or updates when you have opted in
- Analyze traffic and site performance
- Serve advertisements and affiliate content
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
Wholesome Cove uses cookies and similar technologies to enhance user experience and support site functionality and advertising. You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings at any time. Please note that disabling cookies may affect how certain features of the site function.
This site hosts Journey by Mediavine advertising, which uses cookies and similar technologies to deliver interest-based ads. Mediavine’s own advertising privacy notice, detailing what it collects, how it is shared, and how to opt out, is automatically included on this page as required by Mediavine, and is not duplicated here to avoid conflicting or outdated information. You can review or change your consent preferences at any time using the “Update Privacy Settings” link at the bottom of this website, and manage US opt-out preferences using the “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link where it appears.
Advertising and Affiliate Disclosure
We participate in affiliate marketing programs, including the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. This means we may earn a commission when you click on affiliate links and make a purchase, at no additional cost to you.
Advertisements on Wholesome Cove are delivered through Journey by Mediavine, which works with a network of third-party advertising partners to display relevant ads based on your visits to this and other websites.
Third-Party Privacy Policies
Wholesome Cove’s Privacy Policy does not apply to other advertisers or websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of third-party services, including Mediavine’s own Privacy Policy, for more detailed information about their practices and instructions on how to opt out of certain options.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only 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. Non-personal, aggregated data may be retained for analytics purposes for longer periods. When data is no longer needed, we take reasonable steps to delete or anonymize it.
Data Protection and Security
We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, misuse, or disclosure. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your Privacy Rights (US Residents)
Depending on your state of residence, you may have the right to:
- Request access to the personal data we hold about you
- Request correction or deletion of your personal data
- Opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information for targeted or cross-context behavioral advertising
- Limit the use of sensitive personal information
- Appeal a denial of a rights request
- Not be discriminated against for exercising any of these rights
- Opt out of email communications at any time
Where required by applicable law, visitors may see a “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” link or other privacy controls on this website that allow them to opt out of certain advertising-related data processing in connection with Mediavine’s advertising. Please note this tool addresses Mediavine’s ad-related data processing only and does not cover other data collection on this site — for anything else, please contact us using the information below.
Your Privacy Rights (EEA / UK Residents)
If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we process your personal data based on your consent (for cookies and interest-based advertising) or our legitimate interests (for basic site operation and security). Where required, ads on this site are served through a Consent Management Platform certified under the IAB Transparency & Consent Framework, which allows you to choose which purposes and vendors you consent to before any non-essential cookie or ad partner loads. You have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal data, and to withdraw consent at any time via the “Update Privacy Settings” link on this site. Because our advertising partners are largely based outside the EEA/UK, your data may be transferred to the United States or other countries; where this occurs, it relies on the EU-US Data Privacy Framework (where applicable) or Standard Contractual Clauses.
To exercise any of the above rights, please contact us using the information below.
Children’s Information
Wholesome Cove does not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13. If you believe that your child has provided personal information on this website, please contact us immediately, and we will take appropriate steps to remove such information.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
