Our Approach to Privacy
At Crystal Compass, we value your privacy as much as we value clarity and trust. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit our website. We've written it in plain language because that's how we do everything — clearly and simply.
1. Information We Collect
When you visit Crystal Compass, we may collect:
Information you voluntarily provide: If you sign up for a newsletter, submit a contact form, or leave a comment, we collect your name and email address.
Automatically collected information: Like most websites, we collect standard technical data through cookies and analytics tools. This includes your IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited, and time spent on the site. This data is anonymous and helps us understand what content our readers enjoy most.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
Improve our content and understand what topics resonate with readers.
Send occasional newsletters if you've subscribed (you can unsubscribe anytime).
Respond to inquiries or messages you send us.
Maintain site security and prevent misuse.
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to anyone. Ever.
3. Cookies
Crystal Compass uses cookies to improve your browsing experience. Cookies are small files stored on your device that help us remember your preferences and understand how you interact with our site.
You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time. Please note that some site features may not function as smoothly if cookies are turned off.
4. Third-Party Links
Our articles may include links to our affiliated crystal store or other relevant resources. When you click these links and leave Crystal Compass, our privacy policy no longer applies. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of any external sites you visit.
5. Affiliate & Commerce Disclosure
Crystal Compass is connected to a curated crystal store. Some links on our site may be affiliate or product links. This means we may earn a small commission or referral credit if you make a purchase — at no extra cost to you. We only recommend products we genuinely believe are meaningful and aligned with our values.
6. Data Protection
We take reasonable measures to protect your personal information. However, no online transmission is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security, but we do our best to safeguard your data.
7. Children's Privacy
Crystal Compass is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has shared information with us, please contact us so we can remove it.
