Welcome to The 104 Homestead. I take your privacy seriously and am committed to being transparent about how your data is collected, used, and protected. This Privacy Policy explains what kind of information I collect, how it’s used, and the steps I take to keep it safe—so you can browse and subscribe with confidence.

By using this site, you agree to the terms of this policy.

What This Policy Covers

This Privacy Policy applies to https://104homestead.com and all related content, products, and services offered by The 104 Homestead (referred to here as “the Site”).

What Information I Collect

Personal Identification Information

I may collect personal information when you:

  • Subscribe to the newsletter
  • Place an order
  • Fill out a form (like for a freebie or contact request)
  • Comment on a post or send a message

This may include your name, email address, mailing address, and (when necessary) payment details. You can always choose not to provide this information, though it may limit access to some content or features.

Non-Personal Identification Information

I may collect non-personal information like:

  • Your browser type and device
  • How you interact with the site (pages visited, time spent, etc.)
  • Referring websites or search terms

This data helps me improve the site and make sure it works well for all visitors.

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Like most websites, The 104 Homestead uses cookies to enhance your experience. Cookies are small files stored on your device that help the site remember your preferences and understand how visitors interact with content.

You can choose to disable cookies in your browser settings. Just note that doing so may affect how some features work.

How I Use Your Information

I may use the information I collect to:

  • Improve the website experience and content
  • Respond to comments, emails, or questions
  • Process purchases and deliver digital products
  • Send periodic emails (like the newsletter, order updates, or freebies)
  • Provide customer support
  • Track engagement and performance (through tools like Google Analytics)

You’ll only receive marketing emails if you opt in—and you can unsubscribe any time by clicking the link at the bottom of any email.

This site uses affiliate links (including Amazon Services LLC Associates Program), which means I may earn a small commission—at no extra cost to you—if you make a purchase through certain links.

The 104 Homestead is also affiliated with CafeMedia for ad placements. CafeMedia and other ad networks may use cookies or similar tracking tools to display relevant ads. You can learn more about their privacy practices here: https://www.cafemedia.com/publisher-advertising-privacy-policy

How Your Information Is Protected

I take data security seriously and use appropriate security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure. All payment transactions are processed securely via trusted third-party services (like Etsy or PayPal). I never store or see your full credit card details.

Sharing Your Information

I never sell, rent, or trade your personal information.

I may share your data with trusted third parties who help operate the site (such as email service providers or payment processors), but only to the extent necessary to provide those services. These partners are required to keep your information secure and confidential.

Third-Party Links & Content

Some blog posts or ads link to other websites or products. Once you leave my site, I can’t control how those third parties collect or use your data. Be sure to check their privacy policies if you’re concerned.

Children’s Privacy

This site is not intended for children under the age of 13, and I do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If I learn that personal information has been submitted by a child without parental consent, it will be deleted promptly.

Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

  • Access, correct, or delete your personal data
  • Request to opt-out of data processing or marketing emails
  • Request a copy of your stored information

To make any of these requests, email me at: jessica[at]104homestead[dot]com

Updates to This Policy

I may update this policy from time to time to reflect changes in privacy practices, site features, or legal requirements. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will always reflect the most recent version.
