We collect minimal data to ensure a smooth browsing experience and to track the performance of our affiliate partnerships:
- Non-Personal Data: When you visit our site, we automatically collect analytical data such as your IP address, browser type, device information, and browsing behavior (e.g., pages visited and time spent on the site).

2. Cookies and Affiliate Tracking
Thoughtful Diaries uses cookies to enhance your experience and sustain our business model.
- Affiliate Cookies: When you click on a discount code or an affiliate link to one of our partnered merchants, a tracking cookie is placed on your browser. This cookie simply tells the merchant that you came from Thoughtful Diaries, allowing us to earn a small commission if you make a purchase.

- To accurately attribute affiliate sales and maintain our merchant partnerships.
4. Third-Party Links and Services
Our website contains links to third-party retail partners. Once you click an affiliate link or a coupon code, you are redirected to the merchant's website.
- Thoughtful Diaries does not control these external websites.
- We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policies of these third-party brands, as their data collection practices may differ from ours.
