Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains what information dCrochet.com may collect, why it is used, and the choices available to visitors.
Information You Provide
If you contact us, subscribe to an email list, or submit a form, we may receive the information you choose to provide, such as your name, email address, and message. We use it only to respond, provide the requested service, protect the website, or meet legal obligations. Please do not submit sensitive personal information through a general contact form.
Information Collected Automatically
Like most websites, our hosting, security, analytics, and performance services may process technical information such as IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, approximate region, pages visited, and time of access. This information helps keep the site secure, understand general usage, and improve performance.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Cookies are small files stored on a device. dCrochet may use essential cookies for security and website functions, analytics cookies to understand aggregated traffic, and advertising cookies if advertising is enabled. Where required, visitors will be offered consent choices before non-essential cookies are used.
Google Services and Advertising
We may use Google services such as Google Analytics, Search Console, Site Kit, and Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies or similar technologies to measure traffic, prevent fraud, personalize or limit ads, and report advertising performance.
If Google AdSense is enabled, third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on a visitor’s previous visits to this or other websites. Google’s advertising cookies allow Google and its partners to serve ads based on visits to dCrochet and other sites. Visitors can manage personalized advertising in Google My Ad Center. More information is available in Google’s advertising policies.
Contact Forms and Email
Messages sent through a contact form may be stored long enough to respond, maintain business records, prevent abuse, and resolve disputes. We do not sell contact details or use a private inquiry as permission to send unrelated marketing.
Embedded Content and External Links
Pages may include links or embedded content from other websites. Those services may collect data, use cookies, or track interactions according to their own privacy policies. We encourage visitors to review the policy of any external service they use.
Data Sharing
We do not sell personal information. Limited data may be processed by trusted providers that help with hosting, security, analytics, email delivery, forms, or advertising. Information may also be disclosed when required by law, to protect rights and safety, or in connection with a legitimate transfer of the website.
Data Retention and Security
We keep personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose collected, legal compliance, security, or dispute resolution. Reasonable technical and organizational safeguards are used, but no internet transmission or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.
Your Choices and Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, or a copy of certain personal data. You can also block or delete cookies through browser settings, although essential site features may be affected. Requests can be made through our Contact page.
Children’s Privacy
dCrochet is written for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. A parent or guardian who believes a child submitted personal data should contact us for review and deletion.
Policy Updates
We may revise this policy when our services, providers, or legal obligations change. The updated date will appear below.
