Privacy Policy
Effective date: July 15, 2026
This Privacy Policy describes how Amanda Kunze (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you visit https://amandakunze.com (the “Site”). By using the Site, you agree to the practices described below.
Information We Collect
Information you provide to us. We collect information you voluntarily give us, including:
- Contact forms — when you contact us, we collect your name, email address, and any information you include in your message.
- Newsletter and email signups — when you subscribe, we collect your email address (and your name, if provided).
- Comments — if the Site allows comments, we collect the name, email address, and content you submit, along with your IP address and browser information.
Information collected automatically. When you visit the Site, we and our service providers automatically collect certain information, including your IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, referring pages, pages viewed, and the dates and times of your visits. This is collected through cookies and similar technologies (see below).
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- operate, maintain, and improve the Site and its content;
- respond to your inquiries and messages submitted through contact forms;
- send you our newsletter or updates if you have subscribed;
- understand how visitors use the Site through analytics;
- detect, prevent, and address technical issues, fraud, or abuse; and
- comply with legal obligations.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Site, remember your preferences, and understand how the Site is used. Cookies are small files stored on your device.
You can set your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent. Some parts of the Site may not function properly if you disable cookies.
Analytics
We use third-party analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to help us understand how visitors use the Site. These services use cookies and similar technologies to collect information such as your IP address, pages visited, and time spent on the Site, and they report this information to us in aggregate. We do not use this information to personally identify you.
You can learn about Google’s practices and opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
Email and Newsletter
If you subscribe to our newsletter, we use your email address to send you updates and related content. We may use a third-party email service provider to manage subscriptions and delivery. Every marketing email includes an unsubscribe link, and you can opt out at any time by clicking it or contacting us directly.
How We Share Your Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share information in the following limited circumstances:
- Service providers — with third parties who perform services on our behalf, such as analytics providers, email delivery services, and hosting providers, who are permitted to use the information only to provide those services.
- Legal requirements — when required by law, subpoena, or other legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of our users or others.
- Business transfers — in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, in which case information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
Third-Party Links
The Site may contain links to third-party websites or embedded content (such as videos, images, or social media). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies.
Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law. Newsletter subscription information is retained until you unsubscribe. Contact form messages are retained as long as needed to respond to and manage your inquiry.
Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the information we collect from loss, misuse, and unauthorized access. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- request access to the personal information we hold about you;
- request that we correct or delete your personal information;
- opt out of marketing communications; and
- ask us how your information is used.
To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details below. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.
California Residents (CCPA/CPRA)
If you are a California resident, you have the right to:
- know what categories of personal information we collect and how we use it;
- request access to the specific personal information we have collected about you;
- request deletion of your personal information, subject to certain exceptions;
- opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of your personal information — note that we do not sell your personal information; and
- non-discrimination — we will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.
To submit a request, contact us using the information in the “Contact Us” section. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request.
Children’s Privacy
The Site is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal. Because there is no consistent industry standard for responding to DNT signals, the Site does not currently respond to them.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Effective date” above. We encourage you to review this page periodically for the latest information on our privacy practices.
