Privacy policy

This policy explains how Plumb & Level Media (“we”, “us”) handles information when you visit home-deports.com. We have tried to write it in plain English rather than legal padding.

Information we collect

• Information you give us. If you subscribe to the newsletter or send a message through the contact page, we receive the email address and any message content you provide.
• Technical information collected automatically. Standard server and analytics data: IP address, browser type and version, device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, approximate location derived from IP, and timestamps.
• Cookies and similar technologies. Described in detail in our cookie policy.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13, and this site is not directed at children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Why we use it

• To deliver and secure the website.
• To understand which articles are useful, in aggregate.
• To send the newsletter, if you asked for it.
• To reply to messages you send us.
• To display advertising, which is what pays for the site.

Advertising and analytics partners

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ad Settings, or opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalised advertising at optout.aboutads.info.

We may also use privacy-respecting analytics to measure traffic. Analytics providers process technical data on our behalf under their own terms.

What we never do

We do not sell your personal information. We do not share your email address with advertisers. We do not build or sell profiles of individual readers.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete or port your personal information, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent. Residents of California have specific rights under the CCPA/CPRA, including the right to know, to delete, to correct, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information — we do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined. Residents of the EEA and UK have rights under the GDPR/UK GDPR.

To exercise any right, email [email protected]. We will respond within the period required by applicable law. You may also complain to your local data protection authority.

Security and transfers

The site is served over HTTPS and we apply reasonable technical and organisational safeguards. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure. Our servers and service providers are located in the United States, so information may be processed there.
