Introduction
Welcome to She Shines Daily (sheshinesdaily.com), a lifestyle blog covering nail art, hairstyles, makeup, and kids’ activities (“we,” “us,” “our,” or “She Shines Daily”). Your privacy matters to us, and this Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect when you visit or interact with our website, how we use and protect it, who we share it with, and the choices and rights available to you.
By browsing sheshinesdaily.com or leaving a comment, you agree to the collection and use of information as described in this Policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the site.
Who We Are
Website: sheshinesdaily.com
Contact email: [email protected]
For the purposes of applicable data protection laws (including the UK/EU GDPR), She Shines Daily is the data controller responsible for the personal information described in this Policy.
Information We Collect
Information you provide directly
- Comments: when you leave a comment on a post, we collect your name, email address, an optional website URL, your IP address, and the content of the comment.
- Any other information you choose to send us directly, for example by email.
Information collected automatically
Like most websites, our server automatically collects certain technical information whenever you visit, including:
- IP address and approximate location (city/country level)
- Browser type and version, device type, and operating system
- Pages viewed, time spent on pages, links clicked, and referring/exit pages
- Date and time of your visit
Information from cookies and similar technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to support core site functionality and the sharing tools on our pages.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Display, moderate, and respond to comments
- Operate, maintain, and improve the website and its content
- Detect, prevent, and address spam, fraud, or security issues
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our site policies
Cookies & Tracking Technologies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help websites function. We use the following categories of cookies:
| Category | Purpose | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Required for core WordPress functionality (e.g., testing whether your browser accepts cookies) | wordpress_test_cookie |
| Functional | Remembers your name, email, and website if you tick “Save my name…” when commenting, so you don’t retype it next time | comment_author_* |
| Social sharing | Powers the share buttons (Pinterest, Facebook, WhatsApp, email) shown under each post image | AddToAny cookies |
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect site functionality — for example, you may need to re-enter your details each time you comment.
Comments & Gravatar
When you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata (name, email, IP address, user agent string) are retained to help detect spam automatically. Your email address is checked against the Gravatar service to see whether you’re using it; if so, a publicly visible profile photo may be shown alongside your comment. You can review Gravatar’s privacy practices, or request removal of your data from Gravatar, directly at gravatar.com.
If you tick “Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment,” a cookie is set on your device so you don’t have to re-enter these details on future visits — see Section 5.
Third-Party Services We Use
We work with the following third-party providers, each of which processes data under their own privacy policy:
- Pinterest — the “Save” buttons on our images link out to Pinterest so you can pin content to your boards. Interacting with these buttons is subject to Pinterest’s Privacy Policy.
- AddToAny — powers our email, WhatsApp, Pinterest, and Facebook share buttons. See AddToAny’s Privacy Policy.
- Gravatar — provides profile photos next to comments. See Automattic’s Privacy Policy.
Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information
We do not sell or share your personal information with third parties in exchange for money or other valuable consideration. If this ever changes — for example, if we introduce advertising or analytics tools in the future — we will update this Privacy Policy and provide a clear opt-out mechanism before doing so.
Data Retention
Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely, so we can recognize follow-up comments automatically without holding every comment for manual moderation. You may request earlier deletion of your personal information at any time.
Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures — such as HTTPS encryption and restricted access to site administration — to protect the information we hold. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Children’s Privacy
She Shines Daily, including its Kids category (crafts, room decor, and activity ideas), is written for parents and adult readers — it is not directed at, and is not intended to be used by, children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected such information, we will delete it promptly. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at [email protected].
Your Privacy Rights
European Economic Area & United Kingdom (GDPR)
If you are located in the EEA or UK, you have the right to: access the personal data we hold about you; request correction or deletion; restrict or object to processing; request data portability; and withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority — in the UK, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO).
California Residents (CCPA/CPRA)
If you are a California resident, you have the right to: know what personal information we collect and how it’s used; request deletion of your personal information; correct inaccurate personal information; and not be discriminated against for exercising these rights. To submit a request, contact us at [email protected]. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request, and we will respond within the timeframe required by law.
Other U.S. State Residents
Residents of states with comprehensive privacy laws — including Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut, Utah, Texas, Oregon, and others — generally have similar rights to access, correct, and delete their personal information. You may exercise these rights by contacting us at [email protected].
Do Not Track & Global Privacy Control
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) setting; because there is no common industry standard for responding to DNT signals, our site does not currently respond to them.
International Data Transfers
Our website and service providers may process and store data in countries other than your own. Where we transfer personal information from the EEA/UK to a country without an adequacy decision, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses.
Links to Other Websites
Our site contains links to third-party websites and platforms — including Pinterest and social media pages. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these external sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of every website you visit.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will reflect the most recent revision. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
