Welcome to The Source Collect (“we,” “our,” “us”). Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website [https://thesourcecollect.com] (the “Site”).

By using our Site, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use.

1. Information We Collect

We may collect:

• Personal Information you provide: name, email address, or other details when you subscribe to newsletters, leave comments, or contact us.
• Technical Information: browser type, IP address, device type, pages visited, and usage data (via cookies and analytics).
• Affiliate & Third-Party Data: if you click affiliate links or advertisements, those third parties may collect additional information in line with their own privacy policies.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use information to:

• Provide and improve our Site and services.
• Send newsletters, updates, and marketing communications (if you opted in).
• Analyze usage trends through tools such as Google Analytics.
• Recommend products and services via affiliate programs (e.g., Amazon, fashion & beauty partners).
• Protect our Site from fraud, abuse, or unlawful activity.

We do not sell your personal data.

3. Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies to personalize content, track performance, and serve relevant advertising.

• You can adjust your browser settings to refuse cookies, though some features may not function.
• We may use Google Analytics and similar tools, which collect information in anonymized or aggregated form.
• Our advertising and affiliate partners may also use cookies for tracking purchases or engagement.

4. Third-Party Services

We work with trusted third parties, including:

• Email marketing providers (e.g., Mailchimp) to manage subscriptions.
• Affiliate networks (e.g., Amazon Associates, RewardStyle, or others) to provide product recommendations.
• Analytics providers (e.g., Google Analytics).

These providers have their own privacy practices. We encourage you to review them directly.

5. Data Sharing

We may share your information with:

• Service providers working on our behalf.
• Affiliate & advertising partners (limited to what’s necessary for tracking and commissions).
• Legal authorities if required by law.
• Successors in the event of a business sale or transfer.

We do not share your personal data for unrelated third-party marketing.

6. International Data Transfers

Because our audience is global, your data may be transferred to and stored in countries outside the U.S. Where required, we implement safeguards (such as contractual protections) to protect your data.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you.
• Request correction or deletion of your data.
• Object to or restrict processing (such as marketing).
• Opt out of newsletters and marketing emails (unsubscribe link included in every message).
• Opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal data (for California residents under CCPA/CPRA).
• Withdraw consent at any time if processing is based on consent.

To exercise these rights, contact us at: [hello@thesourcecollect.com].

8. California Privacy Notice (CCPA/CPRA)

If you are a California resident, you have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA):

• Right to Know what personal information we collect, use, disclose, or sell.
• Right to Delete your personal information, subject to exceptions.
• Right to Opt-Out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information.
• Right to Correct inaccurate information about you.
• Right to Non-Discrimination for exercising privacy rights.

We do not “sell” your personal data for money. However, under California law, certain disclosures for advertising/analytics may be considered “sharing.” You may opt out by contacting us at [hello@thesourcecollect.com].

9. Data Retention

We keep your personal data only as long as needed to provide services, comply with legal obligations, or resolve disputes. When no longer needed, we delete or anonymize it.

10. Security

We use appropriate technical and organizational safeguards to protect your information. However, no online platform can guarantee 100% security. If a breach occurs, we will notify affected individuals in accordance with applicable law.

11. Children’s Privacy

Our Site is not directed to individuals under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If we become aware of such data, we will delete it immediately.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised “Last Updated” date.
