Privacy Policy for SolidGrounds.org
This privacy policy discloses our practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of information that we may collect from users on our website SolidGrounds.org. By using the site, you agree to the terms in this policy.
Information We Collect
We collect identifying information such as your name, email address, postal address, phone number, location/geo-data, and any other identifier that permits us contacting you online or physically.
Additionally, we collect website usage data through services like Google Analytics to better understand how visitors interact with site content and improve their experience. This includes your IP address, browser type, device details, pages visited, referring website, time spent on pages, clicks, scrolls, impressions, and other site analytics data.
How We Use Information
The information collected is used to provide our services, complete purchases, communicate via emails, analyze site traffic and trends, improve our content and product recommendations, affix geotargeted advertisements, and personalize your experience.
Any personal information will only be shared with third parties involved with fulfilling business activities like payment processors, email service providers or when required by law. Aggregated, anonymized data may be shared with advertisers or content partners.
Affiliate Commissions & Cookies
We occasionally participate in affiliate advertising programs like Amazon Associates to help fund the site. If you click on an affiliate link on our website and make a subsequent purchase on that partner site, we may receive a commission fee. These cookie-based affiliate links allow the affiliate network to track your visit to our site and credit us appropriately for purchases made.
Geo-targeted Online Advertising
Third parties like Google AdSense may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to serve you relevant ads based on your location, site visits, inferred interests and other tracking data. This allows us to potentially earn revenue from ads that are useful and meaningful to your needs. You can opt out by adjusting your browser or device advertising settings.
Your Rights and Choices
At any point, you have the right to request access to or deletion of the data we have collected about you. You also have choices about receiving promotional communications and opting out of targeted third-party advertising. Contact us at privacy@solidgrounds.org to exercise these rights.
Data Protection and Security
We implement security measures like encryption to protect your information as it moves across the internet. However, no data transmission or storage system is 100% secure so we cannot guarantee security.

We may periodically change this privacy policy to comply with evolving regulations or site needs. Please check this page for the latest version that is effective. Reaching out to users directly about major changes is at our discretion.
