Sale or Sharing of Personal Information
Blush & Letters does not intend to sell personal information directly in exchange for money.
However, some uses of advertising cookies, analytics technologies, or identifiers may be legally treated as a “sale,” “sharing,” or targeted advertising in certain jurisdictions.
Where applicable, you may opt out through the website’s cookie or privacy controls. Where required by law, we will also process recognized opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control signals.

We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including to:
- Respond to an inquiry
- Maintain subscription preferences
- Operate and secure the website
- Meet recordkeeping obligations
- Resolve disputes
- Enforce agreements
- Comply with applicable law
Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.
No website, database, transmission method, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You provide information through the internet at your own risk.
International Data Transfers
The website and its service providers may operate in different countries. Your information may therefore be processed or stored outside the country where you live.
When required, appropriate safeguards will be used for international transfers of personal information.
Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Request access to personal information held about you
- Request correction of inaccurate information

- Restrict or object to certain processing
- Withdraw consent

These rights are not absolute and may be subject to legal exceptions.
To submit a privacy request, email [email protected] with the subject line Privacy Request. We may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests.
Authorized agents may submit requests where permitted by law, but we may require evidence of authorization and identity verification.
Email Communications
When you subscribe to emails, we may use your email address to send the communications you requested.
You can unsubscribe through the link included in an email or by contacting us at [email protected].
We may retain limited information necessary to record and respect an unsubscribe request.
Comments and Public Information
If the website allows comments or other public contributions, information you publish may be visible to other visitors and may appear in search results.
Do not submit personal information that you do not want made public. We may remove comments that are abusive, unlawful, promotional, misleading, irrelevant, or otherwise inappropriate.
Third-Party Websites
Blush & Letters may link to third-party websites, retailers, social networks, tools, or services.
We do not control their privacy practices and are not responsible for how they collect or use information. Review the privacy policy of any third-party website before providing personal information.
Children’s Privacy
Blush & Letters is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact [email protected] so that we can review and, where appropriate, delete it.
Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is not a universally accepted method for responding to all such signals, the website may not respond to traditional Do Not Track settings.
Where required by applicable law, we will process recognized legally valid opt-out preference signals.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when our practices, technologies, services, or legal obligations change.
The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Your continued use of the website after an update means that the revised policy will apply to future interactions with the website.
