Privacy Policy – Sage & Stone

Effective Date: May 10, 2026

We value your privacy and believe in keeping things simple. Below, we answer the most common questions about how we handle your information when you visit this website.

What data do you collect about me?

We automatically receive a few technical details:

  • Your public IP address,
  • The type and version of your browser,
  • The pages you look at and how long you stay.

We never ask for your name, email, or any other personally identifying information unless you decide to contact us.

Do you use cookies?

Yes, we do allow third‑party advertising networks to place cookies on your device. These cookies help them show you ads that are more relevant to your interests, limit how often the same ad appears, and measure campaign performance. None of these cookies contain your name or contact details.

Are there different types of cookies?

Some cookies are essential for the site to work, but most are set by our advertising partners for:

  • Ad targeting: Understanding your browsing habits across websites,
  • Frequency capping: Ensuring you don’t see the same ad too many times,
  • Performance measurement: Checking whether an ad was seen or clicked.

You can manage or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings.

Do you sell my data?

No. We do not sell, rent, or trade any personal information. The anonymous data shared with our advertising partners is used exclusively for ad delivery and aggregated statistics.

How do you use my IP address and logs?

We use server logs to:

  • Keep the site secure and detect misuse,
  • Generate anonymous traffic reports so we know which pages are popular,
  • Improve our content over time.

We never link your IP address to your cookie data in a way that would personally identify you.

How long do you keep my data?

Server logs are automatically removed after 60 days. Cookie data is controlled by each advertising partner and kept according to their own retention policies.

What are my rights under GDPR (Europe)?

If you are in the European Economic Area, you have the right to:

  • Access your data,
  • Correct inaccurate data,
  • Delete your data,
  • Restrict processing,
  • Object to processing,
  • Transfer your data to another service,
  • Withdraw your cookie consent.

To exercise any of these rights, email [email protected]. We will respond within one month and never charge a fee.

What are my California privacy rights (CCPA)?

Under the CCPA, California residents may request:

  • That we disclose what personal information we collect and why,
  • That we delete your personal information,
  • That we do not sell your data (we already do not sell any data).

We will never discriminate against you for making a request. Send CCPA requests to [email protected].

Can I lodge a complaint?

Absolutely. If you are in the EU and you believe we haven’t handled your data properly, you have the right to lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority. We’d appreciate the chance to resolve things first, so please contact us.

Is my data transferred internationally?

Our advertising partners may process cookie data in countries outside the EU/EEA. When they do, they use appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses to ensure your data remains protected.

Do you protect my data?

We implement reasonable technical measures – including encryption, access controls, and firewall protection – to keep your data safe. However, no online service can guarantee 100% security.

What about children’s privacy?

This site is not intended for anyone under 16. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If we become aware that a child has provided us with information, we will delete it.

Will this policy change?

We may update this page occasionally. When we do, we’ll change the “Effective Date” at the top. If the changes are significant, we’ll post a notice on our homepage.
