The Finer Things ('we', 'us') operates thefinerthings.online/. This policy explains what personal data we collect, why, and your rights over it. It is designed to comply with the EU/UK GDPR, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA) and South Africa's POPIA.
Data We Collect
Data you provide: email address when subscribing to our newsletter; name, email and message content when contacting us or commenting. Data collected automatically: IP address, browser type, device information, pages visited and referring URLs, collected via cookies and analytics tools (Google Analytics 4). Affiliate tracking: when you click an affiliate link, the retailer (e.g. Amazon) may set cookies to attribute a purchase to us; we do not receive your personal purchase details.
How We Use Data
To operate and improve the website, send newsletters you opted into, respond to enquiries, measure content performance, and comply with legal obligations. We do not sell your personal information.
Legal Bases (GDPR)
Consent (newsletter, non-essential cookies), legitimate interests (site security, analytics where permitted), and legal obligation.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may request access, correction, deletion, portability, restriction of processing, or object to processing. California residents may opt out of ‘sharing’ for cross-context advertising. To exercise any right, email privacy@thefinerthings.online. We respond within 30 days.
Cookies, Retention & Transfers
See our Cookie Policy for details and consent controls. We retain data only as long as necessary for the purposes above. Data may be processed in the United States and other countries with appropriate safeguards.
