Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information Habit Avenue collects, why, and what happens to it. It's written in plain English because a privacy policy nobody can read isn't much use.
Who we are
Habit Avenue is a personal blog operated by [YOUR NAME], based in [YOUR CITY, COUNTRY]. Contact: [YOUR EMAIL]. Website: https://www.habitavenue.com
Information we collect
Information you give us
- Email address — when you subscribe to the newsletter or download a free resource.
- Name — only if you choose to provide it on the signup form.
- Anything you send us — if you email a question, we keep that message so we can reply.
Information collected automatically
- Usage data — pages viewed, time on page, links clicked, and the site you arrived from.
- Device data — browser type, operating system, screen size, and approximate location derived from your IP address.
- Cookies — small files stored in your browser. See below.
Cookies and similar technologies
We use cookies to understand how the site is used and, where relevant, to credit affiliate referrals. Specifically:
- Google Analytics — sets cookies to measure traffic and behaviour. It does not identify you personally.
- Affiliate cookies — when you click an affiliate link, the merchant (for example ClickBank) may set a cookie so the referral can be credited. These are controlled by the merchant's own privacy policy, not ours.
- Essential cookies — required for the site to function.
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time. Blocking them may affect some features but won't stop you reading the site.
How we use your information
- To send you the newsletter or free resource you asked for
- To reply when you contact us
- To understand which content is useful, so we can write more of it
- To keep the site secure and prevent abuse
We never sell your personal information.
Who else sees it
We use a small number of third-party services to run the site. Each only receives the data it needs:
- Google Analytics (Google LLC) — traffic measurement
- [YOUR EMAIL PROVIDER — e.g. MailerLite / Brevo / ConvertKit] — storing your email address and sending the newsletter
- ClickBank — processing affiliate referrals
- Google (Blogger) — hosting the site
Each of these operates under its own privacy policy. We don't control what they do with data once it reaches them.
International transfers
The site is operated from [INDIA] and uses service providers based in the United States and elsewhere. By using the site you understand your information may be transferred to and processed in countries whose data protection laws differ from your own.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
- Ask us to correct it or delete it
- Unsubscribe from emails at any time — every email has a one-click unsubscribe link
- Object to how your data is processed
California residents have additional rights under the CCPA, and users in the EU and UK have rights under the GDPR. To exercise any of these, email [YOUR EMAIL] and we'll respond within 30 days.
Children's privacy
This site is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their data. If you believe a child has given us personal information, contact us and we'll delete it.
How long we keep it
Email addresses are kept until you unsubscribe. Analytics data is retained for the period set in our Google Analytics configuration. Correspondence is kept as long as it's useful.
Security
We take reasonable measures to protect your information, but no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure. We can't guarantee absolute security.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy occasionally. The date at the bottom shows when it last changed, and continued use of the site means you accept the current version.
