Privacy Policy

Effective date: July 28, 2026 | Last updated: July 28, 2026

1. Who We Are

Espie Mood is a mood-based home décor website offering articles, room-reset guidance, downloadable resources, product recommendations, and affiliate links. In this policy, “Espie Mood,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the operator of espiemood.com.

2. Information We Collect

Information you provide

We may collect information you voluntarily provide when you:

subscribe to an email list or request a downloadable guide;

complete a quiz, form, survey, or contact request;

leave a comment or otherwise communicate with us; or

make a purchase, if digital products or other paid offerings are made available.

Depending on the feature used, this information may include your name, email address, message, quiz responses, preferences, order details, and any other information you choose to submit.

Information collected automatically

When you visit the Site, we and our service providers may automatically collect certain technical and usage information, such as:

IP address and approximate location derived from it;

browser type, device type, operating system, and language;

pages viewed, links clicked, referring pages, and dates and times of visits;

cookie identifiers, advertising identifiers, and similar online identifiers; and

information about interactions with emails, advertisements, affiliate links, and Site features.

We may receive limited transaction or attribution information from affiliate networks and retailers when a purchase is associated with one of our links. We generally do not receive your full payment-card number or complete retailer account details.

When you purchase a digital download, we may receive your name, email address, billing details, order information, payment status, and limited payment-method details from Stripe. Stripe processes full payment-card information on our behalf; Espie Mood does not receive or store your complete card number.

3. How We Use Information

We may use information to:

operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Site;

deliver requested guides, quiz results, emails, and other content;

respond to questions and provide support;

understand Site traffic and how visitors use our content;

measure affiliate-link activity and advertising performance;

process and administer purchases, if offered;

prevent fraud, misuse, and security incidents;

comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms; and

send marketing emails when you have subscribed, subject to your right to unsubscribe.

4. Cookies and Similar Technologies

The Site and its service providers may use cookies, pixels, tags, local storage, and similar technologies. Some are necessary for the Site to function. Others help remember preferences, measure traffic and engagement, support email features, attribute affiliate referrals, or measure advertising performance.

Nonessential cookies and similar technologies are used according to your choices and where consent is legally required. You can manage available choices through the cookie banner or the cookie-preferences link on the Site. You may also adjust your browser settings, although blocking cookies can affect how parts of the Site work.

5. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4, a service provided by Google, to understand how visitors find and use the Site. Google Analytics may collect information such as pages viewed, approximate location, device and browser information, referring sources, interactions, and online identifiers through cookies or similar technologies. We use this information to measure traffic, improve content, and understand Site performance.

Google processes this information under its own privacy terms. Where consent is required, Google Analytics should not load until you make an applicable choice through the Site’s cookie banner. You can later change that choice through the cookie-preferences link. Google also offers a browser add-on for opting out of Google Analytics.

6. Affiliate Links and Advertising Partners

Espie Mood participates in affiliate programs, including the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program and Mavely (also known as Later for Creator). When you click an affiliate link, the affiliate network, retailer, and their service providers may use cookies or similar technologies to recognize the referral, measure purchases, prevent fraud, and calculate commissions. Their collection and use of information are governed by their own privacy notices.

As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

We may earn a commission when you purchase through an affiliate link, at no additional cost to you. A privacy policy does not replace the clear affiliate disclosure shown near affiliate links and recommendations elsewhere on the Site.

If Amazon oneTag is enabled on the Site, Amazon may process information through cookies, pixels, or similar technologies. Where available, visitors may manage oneTag data-processing preferences through Amazon Associates oneTag Preferences.

7. Email Communications

If you subscribe, your name, email address, subscription status, and engagement information may be processed by our email service provider, currently Kit (formerly ConvertKit), so we can send requested downloads, updates, and marketing messages. You may unsubscribe at any time by using the unsubscribe link in an email. We may retain limited suppression-list information to honor your opt-out.

8. Pinterest and Other Social Platforms

The Site may use the Pinterest Tag or similar tools to measure visits, content engagement, and advertising results. Pinterest may collect or receive information from the Site through cookies and similar technologies and may combine it with information it already holds, subject to its own privacy policy and your available settings. If we add another analytics or advertising tool, we will update this policy and our cookie controls as appropriate.

9. Forms, Quizzes, Comments, and Spam Protection

Information submitted through WordPress forms, quizzes, comments, or contact features is used to provide the requested result or response and to administer the Site. The Site or its hosting and security providers may also process IP addresses, browser details, and submission metadata to detect spam, abuse, and security threats.

10. Digital Purchases and Stripe

Payments for digital downloads are processed by Stripe. Stripe may collect payment-card details, billing information, contact information, device information, and transaction data to process the payment, prevent fraud, meet legal obligations, and provide its services. Stripe’s handling of this information is governed by Stripe’s privacy policy.

We use order information to confirm purchases, deliver digital products, provide customer service, manage refunds or disputes, maintain tax and accounting records, and prevent fraud. We may retain transaction records for the period required by tax, accounting, payment-card, and other applicable laws.

11. Hosting and Service Providers

The Site is built with WordPress and hosted by Hostinger. We may share information with vendors that perform services on our behalf, such as website hosting, security, form processing, email delivery, analytics, affiliate attribution, payment processing, file delivery, and technical support. These providers may process information only as needed to provide their services or as otherwise permitted by their agreements and applicable law.

12. When We Disclose Information

We may disclose information:

to service providers and contractors that help operate the Site;

to affiliate networks and retailers when you interact with an affiliate link;

when required by law, legal process, or a valid government request;

when reasonably necessary to protect rights, safety, property, or the security of the Site;

in connection with a merger, sale, financing, reorganization, or transfer of all or part of the business; or

with your direction or consent.

We do not sell personal information for money. Some uses of advertising or affiliate cookies may be considered “selling,” “sharing,” or targeted advertising under certain state privacy laws. Where those laws apply, you may use the Site’s cookie-preferences tool or contact us to exercise an applicable opt-out right.

13. Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including to provide requested content, maintain business and tax records, honor opt-outs, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, and meet legal obligations. Retention periods vary based on the type of information, how it is used, and applicable legal requirements.

14. Data Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect personal information. No website, storage system, or transmission method is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

15. Your Privacy Choices and Rights

To submit a request, use the contact form at https://espiemood.com/contact/. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. You may use an authorized agent where permitted by law. We will not discriminate against you for exercising an applicable privacy right.

You may also enable a legally recognized browser-based opt-out preference signal. Where required by applicable law and technically detectable, we will treat the signal as a request to opt out for the browser or device that sends it.

16. International Visitors

Espie Mood is operated in the United States. If you visit from another country, your information may be processed in the United States or other locations where our service providers operate. Where required, we rely on consent, contractual necessity, legitimate interests, legal obligations, or other lawful bases for processing.

17. Children’s Privacy

The Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the Site, please contact us so we can review and, where appropriate, delete it.

18. Third-Party Websites and Embedded Content

The Site may link to or embed content from third-party websites, retailers, social platforms, or services. Those third parties operate under their own terms and privacy practices. We encourage you to review their privacy notices before providing information or making a purchase.

19. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our practices, technology, services, or legal requirements. The “Last updated” date at the top will show when the policy was revised. Material changes may also be highlighted on the Site or communicated by another appropriate method.
