Last updated: October 24, 2025

At Coffee Journals, accessible from https://www.coffeejournals.com, protecting your privacy is one of our top priorities. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of personal information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have regarding your data.

Who We Are

Coffee Journals is a blog dedicated to sharing reviews, recommendations, and insights about coffee-related products and accessories. Our website address is: https://www.coffeejournals.com.

Amazon Associates Disclosure

Coffee Journals is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and its affiliated websites.
This means we may earn a commission when you make a purchase through links on our site — at no additional cost to you. Affiliate links help support the operation of this website.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to check if you use it. After your comment is approved, your profile picture (if available) is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you upload images to our website (for example, in comments or guest posts), you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included.
Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website. We do not use any metadata from uploaded images for marketing or tracking purposes.

Cookies

Our website uses cookies to improve user experience, analyze site traffic, and track affiliate link performance.
If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies for your convenience so that you don’t have to re-enter them when leaving another comment. These cookies last for one year.

We also use third-party cookies from Amazon and analytics providers to help us understand which products and content our visitors find most useful. You can disable cookies in your browser settings if you prefer not to allow this.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (such as YouTube videos, Amazon product widgets, or images). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the same way as if the visitor has visited the other website directly.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content.

Who we share your data with

We do not sell or rent your personal data to anyone.
However, your data may be shared with:

  • Service providers (such as website hosting, analytics, and anti-spam services) who assist in running our website.
  • Amazon Associates and third-party advertising partners, for the purpose of tracking affiliate link clicks and purchases.
  • Law enforcement if required by applicable law.

How long we retain your data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically.
For registered users (if any), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. Users can view, edit, or delete their information at any time (except usernames, which cannot be changed). Website administrators can also view and edit this information.

What rights you have over your data

If you have an account on this site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of your personal data we hold, including any data you’ve provided to us.
You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you, except data we are required to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments and form submissions may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
Additionally, affiliate link clicks may be processed through Amazon’s tracking systems to attribute commissions.
