Who We Are
Our website address is https://thechicblend.com.
At The Chic Blend, your privacy is very important to us. This page explains what data we collect, how we use it, and how you can control your information.
What Personal Data We Collect and Why
Comments
When visitors leave comments, we collect the information shown in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user‑agent string to help detect spam.
An anonymized string created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to verify usage. After approval of your comment, your profile image is publicly visible alongside your comment.

Affiliate Links
Some posts include affiliate links. Clicking these links may direct you to third‑party sites that collect information under their own privacy policies. We recommend reviewing those policies before sharing any data.
Display Ads
The Chic Blend may display advertisements served by Google AdSense or other third‑party ad networks.
These partners may use cookies or web beacons to personalize ads based on your visits to this and other websites.
To learn how Google uses information from AdSense cookies and how to opt out of personalized ads, visit the Google Ad & Content Network Privacy Policy.
Media
If you upload images to the website, please avoid images containing embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors can download and extract such data from site images.
Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device to enhance your browsing experience.
We use cookies to:
- Remember your preferences (like login or display options)
- Understand traffic through Google Analytics
- Serve relevant ads via Google AdSense
If you comment on our site, you can opt in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies for convenience. These last one year.
You can disable or delete cookies anytime through your browser settings. For detailed information, see About Cookies.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or posts). Embedded content behaves as if you visited those websites directly. They may collect data, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with their content.
How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and metadata are stored indefinitely for moderation purposes.
Registered users can see, edit, or delete their information anytime (except usernames). Site administrators can also view and edit that data.
Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of your personal data or ask us to delete it—except where we must retain data for legal or security reasons.
To make a request, contact [email protected].
Where We Send Your Data
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam‑detection service.
Third‑Party Links
Our website may contain links to external sites. We are not responsible for their privacy practices and encourage you to review their individual policies.
Children’s Privacy
The Chic Blend is intended for adults and does not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If such information is inadvertently collected, we will promptly delete it upon notice.
