If you leave a comment, I collect what you type plus your IP address and browser user agent to help with spam detection.

Details & FAQs
A few common questions about cookies, analytics, and your choices.
Cookies: do you use them?
Maybe. This site may use cookies for basic functionality (like remembering preferences) and for analytics. You can control cookies in your browser settings.
Analytics: what do you track?
I may use privacy-friendly analytics to understand what posts people read and how the site performs. This typically includes page views, referrers, device type, and approximate location (not your exact address).
Do you sell my data?
No. I don’t sell your personal information.
Who else might receive my data?
Service providers that help run the site (hosting, email delivery, spam filtering, analytics) may process limited data on my behalf. They’re only allowed to use it to provide their services.
How long do you keep information?
Comments and their metadata may be kept indefinitely so follow-up comments can be approved automatically. Emails are kept as long as needed to respond and for basic record-keeping.
How do I request access or deletion?
Email kimmie@kimmieolson.com with what you’re requesting. I’ll do my best to help, subject to legal/operational limits (for example, keeping records required for security or compliance).
