Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 7, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Decor Chapter (https://decorchapter.com) handles information when you browse our website or contact us. Decor Chapter publishes ideas about small-space decorating, organization, furniture, and outdoor living.

Information you provide

When you use our contact form, we receive the information you enter, such as your name, email address, subject, and message. We use it to answer your enquiry, follow up where appropriate, and maintain a record of the conversation. Submissions are stored in our WordPress database and sent to our contact mailbox. Please do not send passwords, payment details, or other sensitive information through the form.

Technical information and hosting

Our hosting and website services may process technical information such as your IP address, browser and device details, requested pages, and access times. This helps deliver the website, investigate errors, prevent abuse, and protect its security. Our site is hosted by Hostinger and uses WordPress and LiteSpeed Cache.

Caching can temporarily store copies of website pages and resources to improve loading speed. Administrative accounts and security tools may also create operational logs. Access to these systems is limited to people and providers involved in running the website.

Cookies and similar technologies

WordPress and our website tools may use cookies for essential functions, including administrator login, security, and saved preferences. At the time of this update, we have not added a newsletter signup, advertising service, or dedicated visitor analytics service. We will update this policy if those features are introduced.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Blocking essential cookies may affect some website functions. A link to an external platform, such as Pinterest, does not by itself mean that you have subscribed to that platform or to Decor Chapter.

Comments, if enabled

If a page allows comments, WordPress collects the information entered in the comment form, along with an IP address and browser user agent to help detect spam. Approved comments may be visible publicly. If a Gravatar image is requested, an anonymized string derived from your email address may be sent to that service. Its privacy policy is available at Automattic.

External links and embedded content

Our articles may link to other websites. Those websites follow their own privacy policies. If we embed a video, image, or other content from an external provider, that provider may collect data or use cookies as if you visited its website directly. Please review the provider’s privacy information before interacting with it.

How information is shared

We do not sell contact form messages or email addresses. Information may be processed by hosting, email, security, and technical service providers where needed to operate the website and respond to you. We may also disclose information where required by applicable law or to address fraud, security threats, or a lawful request.

Retention and security

We keep enquiries for as long as reasonably needed to respond, handle follow-up questions, and meet operational or legal requirements. We review records and remove information that is no longer needed. Public comments, if enabled, may remain with the relevant article unless removed. Backups can retain copies for their normal retention cycle.

We take reasonable steps to protect information, but no website, email service, or transmission method is completely secure.

Your choices and requests

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the use of your personal information. You can ask us about information you have submitted by using our Contact Us page. Include enough detail for us to identify the enquiry, but avoid sending sensitive identity documents unless a secure verification method has been agreed. Some records may need to be retained for security or legal reasons.

Children’s privacy

Decor Chapter is intended for a general audience and does not knowingly seek personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted personal information, please contact us so we can review and remove it where appropriate.

International processing

Hosting and email providers may process information in countries other than your own. Applicable protections and rights depend on your location and the services involved.

Updates and contact

We may update this Privacy Policy when our services or practices change. The date above indicates the latest revision. For privacy questions or requests, use the Contact Us page.
