Privacy Policy

Last Updated on

Effective date: September 28, 2026

This policy explains what information honeygarage.com (“Honey Garage”, “we”, “us”) collects when you visit the site, why, and the choices you have. Questions go to contact@honeygarage.com.

Information we collect

Information you give us

If you use our contact form or email us, we receive your name, email address and whatever you write. We use it only to reply to you and keep it only as long as needed to deal with your message. We do not add you to a mailing list and we do not sell it.

Information collected automatically

  • Analytics. We use Google Analytics 4 to understand which pages are read and how visitors find the site. Google Analytics uses cookies and collects data such as pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser type, and referring website. See how Google uses data from sites that use its services. You can opt out with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
  • Page view counts. A view counter records how many times each article is read. It may set a cookie so that a repeat visit is not counted twice.
  • Security and server logs. Our host and our security software record IP addresses, browser details and requested pages to keep the site secure, block malicious traffic and diagnose errors. These logs are kept for a limited time.
  • Author images. Author avatars may be loaded from Gravatar, a service run by Automattic, which receives your IP address when the image loads.

Affiliate links and Amazon

Honey Garage is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. When you click a link to Amazon, Amazon may set cookies that record that you came from our site, so that we can be credited for qualifying purchases. We do not see your name, address or payment details, only anonymous totals. Amazon’s handling of your data is covered by the Amazon Privacy Notice on amazon.com. More detail is in our affiliate disclosure.

Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored by your browser. We use them for analytics and view counting, and Amazon uses them for affiliate tracking after you leave our site. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. The site works without them.

Who we share information with

We share information only with the service providers that run the site: our web host, Google (analytics), Amazon (affiliate tracking when you click an Amazon link), Gravatar (avatars) and our security software. We do not sell or rent personal information, and we do not use it for targeted advertising.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, including the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and California, you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal information we hold about you, to object to or restrict its use, and to complain to your local data protection authority. To make a request, email contact@honeygarage.com. We will respond within 30 days.
