Who We Are
We operate an indoor herb garden and windowsill planter information platform providing growing tips, product guides, and horticultural resources. As the data controller, we determine how and why your personal information is processed. Our commitment is to maintain transparency about our data practices and ensure you understand your rights regarding your information.
Information We Collect
We collect information in several ways to improve our services and user experience. When you contact us through our contact form, we gather your name, email address, and any message content you provide.

We also use cookies and similar technologies to track your preferences and enhance your browsing experience. If you subscribe to our newsletter or updates, we collect your email address for communication purposes.
Legal Basis for Processing
We process your personal information based on several legal foundations. When you provide explicit consent—such as subscribing to our newsletter or submitting a contact form—we rely on your consent. We also process data based on legitimate interests, including improving our website functionality, preventing fraud, and analyzing user behavior to enhance our services. Where required by law, we process information to comply with legal obligations. We never process sensitive personal data without appropriate safeguards and explicit consent where necessary.
How We Use Your Information
We use collected information to respond to your inquiries, send newsletters and updates you've requested, and provide customer support. Your data helps us understand how our website is used, allowing us to optimize functionality and user experience.

We never sell your personal information to third parties, nor do we share it without your explicit consent, except when required by law.
Data Retention
We retain your personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes stated in this policy. Contact form submissions and support inquiries are retained for up to 24 months after your last interaction with us, allowing us to maintain context for ongoing communications. Newsletter subscriber data is retained until you unsubscribe, at which point we delete it within 30 days. Website analytics and usage data are retained for up to 14 months to identify trends and optimize our services. Server logs containing IP addresses are retained for up to 12 months for security purposes. If you request deletion of your data, we will comply within 30 days, except where legal obligations require longer retention.

Under GDPR and applicable data protection laws, you have the right to access your personal information and receive a copy in a portable format.

You have the right to restrict how we process your data and to object to certain processing activities. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of prior processing.

Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, and destruction. We use encryption for data transmission, secure servers with firewalls, and regular security updates. Access to your information is restricted to authorized personnel who require it for their work. However, no security system is completely impervious, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. If we discover a data breach, we will notify affected individuals and relevant authorities as required by law. We encourage you to use strong passwords and protect your account credentials.

If we discover we have collected information from a child under 13, we will delete it promptly. Our services and content are designed for adults interested in indoor gardening and horticultural topics. We comply with applicable children's privacy laws in all jurisdictions where we operate.
