Privacy Policy
Last updated May 31, 2026
Halloweenwise ("we," "us") respects your privacy. This policy explains what we collect, why, and what you can do about it. Halloweenwise is an independent site operated from North Carolina, USA.
The short version
We collect almost nothing. Our analytics is privacy-first and cookieless, we only store your email if you choose to subscribe, and we never sell your data.
What we collect
Analytics. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to see which pages people visit. It's cookieless — it doesn't set cookies, doesn't fingerprint your device, and doesn't track you across other sites. What we see is aggregate (page views, referrers, country-level location), not tied to you personally.
Email, if you subscribe. If you sign up for our newsletter, we collect your email address and store it with Buttondown, our email provider. We use it only to send you the newsletter. You can unsubscribe from any email, and we'll remove you.
Technical and security data. Like any site, our host and content-delivery network (Cloudflare) automatically process basic technical data — such as your IP address and browser type — to deliver the site and protect it from abuse.
Cookies and affiliate links
Our own analytics sets no cookies. Where cookies do come in is affiliate links: when you click through to a retailer, that retailer or its affiliate network may set a cookie so a purchase can be credited to us — at no extra cost to you (see our affiliate disclosure). Those cookies are set and controlled by the retailer or network under their own privacy policies, not ours. You can block or clear cookies in your browser at any time.
Services we rely on
Cloudflare (hosting, content delivery, and analytics), Buttondown (newsletter email), and the affiliate networks and retailers you reach through outbound links. Each has its own privacy policy governing the data it handles.
What we don't do
We don't sell or rent your data. We don't run ad networks or third-party ad tracking. We don't require an account, and we don't process payments — any purchase you make happens on the retailer's own site.
Your choices
Unsubscribe from the newsletter anytime through the link in any email. To ask what data we hold about you, or to have it deleted, email [email protected] and we'll take care of it.
Children
Halloweenwise isn't directed to children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their personal information.
Changes
We may update this policy as the site grows; we'll change the date above when we do.
