Privacy Policy

Effective date: September 6, 2026
Last updated: September 6, 2026

Grit Gear Grind (the “Site”) is operated by Amber Campbell in Texas, United States. This Privacy Policy explains what information the Site collects, how it is used and disclosed, and the choices available to visitors. It applies to information collected through https://gritgeargrind.com. It does not govern the practices of websites or platforms that the Site links to.

Information You Provide

If you use the contact form or contact us directly, we may receive your first and last name, email address, message, and any other information you choose to include. The contact form is provided through WPForms Lite. Form entries are not stored in the Site’s WordPress database; the submitted fields are sent to the Site operator by email.

Please do not submit Social Security numbers, financial account details, medical records, government identification numbers, or other sensitive personal information through the contact form. If you voluntarily include sensitive information in a message, we will use it only as reasonably necessary to review and respond to that message, protect the Site, or comply with law.

The Site does not currently offer visitor accounts, newsletter subscriptions, purchases, or public comments.

Information Collected Automatically

When you visit the Site, the Site and its service providers may automatically receive technical and usage information, including your Internet Protocol address, browser and device type, operating system, approximate location derived from an IP address, referring and exit pages, pages viewed, dates and times of visits, traffic source, and interactions with the Site. Hostinger may also maintain server, security, and diagnostic logs needed to provide and protect the website.

How We Use Information

We use information to:

  • operate, maintain, secure, and troubleshoot the Site;

  • respond to questions and other communications;

  • understand traffic, content use, and general audience trends;

  • improve the Site and its content;

  • detect spam, fraud, abuse, or security incidents; and

  • comply with legal obligations and protect legal rights.

Cookies and Your Choices

The Site uses necessary technologies required for the website and consent choices to function. With the visitor’s applicable choice, the Site also uses analytics cookies to understand visits, traffic sources, and popular content.

Complianz, the WordPress Consent API, and Google Site Kit Consent Mode are used to communicate and apply cookie choices. You can review or change the Analytics setting at any time on the Opt-out Preferences page. Necessary cookies cannot be disabled through that tool because they support core operation and remember privacy choices. You may also delete or block cookies through your browser, although doing so can affect site functions.

Where supported by our consent-management tools, recognized Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track signals are applied to available opt-out choices. Because browser signals and third-party responses are not uniform, you may also use the Opt-out Preferences page for a direct choice.

Google Services

The Site uses Google Analytics 4 through Google Site Kit to measure general website use. Google may receive online identifiers and technical and usage information such as device and browser information, approximate location, pages viewed, referral source, and interactions. In this Site’s current configuration, Google Signals is turned off, User-ID and user-provided data collection are not configured, and Google Analytics ads personalization is disabled. Google Analytics 4 does not log or store individual IP addresses.

Google Search Console and PageSpeed Insights are also connected through Site Kit to provide the Site operator with search-performance and technical reports. For more information about how Google handles information from sites that use its services, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

Service Providers and Disclosures

We may disclose information to service providers that perform limited functions for the Site, including website hosting and security, contact-form delivery, email, consent management, and analytics. Current providers include Hostinger, WPForms, Google, and Complianz or their supporting technology. These providers process information under their own terms and privacy commitments and only receive information relevant to the services they provide.

We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with law, legal process, or a valid government request; protect visitors, the Site, or others; investigate fraud, abuse, or security issues; or in connection with a sale, transfer, or reorganization of the Site.

We do not sell personal information for money. We do not currently share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising or use an advertising network on the Site.

External and Affiliate Links

The Site contains links to websites operated by other parties, including ordinary Amazon Associates product links and links to social or publishing platforms. When you follow a link, the destination may collect information under its own privacy policy and technologies. This Privacy Policy does not control those practices. Information about the Site’s affiliate relationship appears in the separate Disclaimer & Affiliate Disclosure.

Data Retention

Contact messages and related email correspondence are retained only for as long as reasonably needed to respond, maintain appropriate records, prevent abuse, resolve disputes, or meet legal obligations, and are then deleted in the ordinary course. Technical, security, consent, and analytics information is retained according to the settings and schedules of the relevant service providers. Retention periods may differ depending on the type of information and why it is needed.

Security

We use reasonable administrative and technical measures intended to protect information. No website, email system, transmission method, or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.

Privacy Rights and Requests

Depending on where you live and the law that applies, you may have the right to request access to, correction of, deletion of, or a portable copy of certain personal information, and to opt out of certain sales, sharing, targeted advertising, or profiling. The Site does not currently sell personal information or use it for targeted advertising.

To make a privacy request, email amcam444@gmail.com with the subject line “Privacy Request.” Describe your request and the Site to which it relates. We may need to verify your identity and authority before acting. If an authorized agent submits a request, we may ask for proof of authorization. We will respond as required by applicable law and will not discriminate against you for exercising an applicable privacy right. If applicable law provides an appeal right, you may appeal a denied request by replying to the decision email and stating that you are appealing it.

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, contact us so we can take appropriate steps to delete it.

Visitors Outside the United States

The Site is operated from the United States and is not specifically directed to residents of another country. If you visit from outside the United States, information may be processed in the United States or other locations where service providers operate, subject to applicable law.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when the Site, its services, or legal requirements change. The revised policy will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date. Where appropriate, material changes may also be highlighted on the Site. New services that materially change data practices will be addressed before or when they are activated.
