1. Introduction
Welcome to SunflowerHomeAI.com. We operate in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) as applicable in Ireland and the EEA, the UK GDPR, and various US State Privacy Laws (including CCPA/CPRA). This policy outlines how we handle your data with transparency and care.
2. Legal Basis for Processing (EEA/UK)
Under GDPR, we process your data based on:
- Consent: When you sign up for newsletters.
- Legitimate Interests: To improve our AI-driven content and ensure website security.
- Legal Obligation: When required by law.
3. Data We Collect
- Voluntary Data: Name and email (e.g., via contact forms).
- Automated Data: IP address, device ID, browser type, and time spent on pages.
- Affiliate Data: When you click an affiliate link, a “tracking cookie” is placed to credit the sale. We do not see your credit card details; these are handled by the retailer (e.g., Amazon).
4. Cookies and “Do Not Track” Signals
We use essential and analytical cookies.
- US Users: We honor “Do Not Track” signals.
- EU/UK Users: We use a Cookie Consent Banner. You have the right to withdraw consent at any time.
5. Data Sharing & Third Parties
We do not sell your personal data. We share data only with:
- Service Providers: Hosting (e.g., Bluehost/SiteGround), Analytics (Google Analytics), and Email services.
- Affiliate Networks: Amazon Associates and others to track commissions.
- Legal Authorities: If required by Irish or International law.
6. International Data Transfers
Since we serve users in the USA, UK, and Ireland, your data may be transferred to servers outside the EEA. We ensure “Standard Contractual Clauses” (SCCs) are in place to protect your data during these transfers.
7. Your Rights (GDPR & CCPA)
- Right to Access/Portability: You can request a copy of your data.
- Right to Erasure (“Right to be Forgotten”): You can request that we delete your data.
- Right to Opt-Out (US): You have the right to opt-out of any “sharing” or “sale” of data (as defined by CCPA).
- Right to Non-Discrimination: We will not provide lower quality service if you exercise your privacy rights.
