Who we are
Our website address is: https://homestrand.com
We are an independent blog dedicated to providing honest and informative Amazon product reviews across categories such as Home Improvement, Furniture, Lawn & Garden, and Pet Products.
As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases made through affiliate links on our website. This means we may receive a small commission when you click on links and make a purchase — at no additional cost to you.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments 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 (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you use it. After your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Media
If you upload images to the website, avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.
Cookies
If you leave a comment on our site, you may opt to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.
Our website also uses Amazon affiliate cookies to track referrals. These cookies allow Amazon to recognize that you clicked a link on our website and may help us earn a commission. These cookies do not collect personal information or affect your browsing experience beyond the Amazon affiliate tracking process.
Affiliate Disclosure
This website is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and related Amazon sites.
When you click on an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission — at no extra cost to you. These commissions help us maintain the website and continue providing valuable product reviews and recommendations.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, or product listings). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if the visitor had visited the other website directly.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content — including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged into that website.
Who we share your data with
We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties.
However, some third-party services such as Amazon Associates, Google Analytics, or anti-spam plugins may process limited data as part of standard website functionality.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This helps us recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
For registered users (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have left comments or have an account on this site, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you, except for data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
Where your data is sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
