Disclosure, Terms, Affiliate Links, Cookies & Privacy

Your privacy is important and safe on Lovely Greens. This page provides information on disclosure, disclaimers, copyright, cookies, privacy, and affiliate relationships.

Hello, and welcome to all the legal information on how this website works. Feel free to read the below, but to make it short, your personal information and browsing are safe on my site. I might be able to see some rough demographics in Google Analytics as to where you are in the world (I love seeing that!), but that’s pretty much it.

Google does other techy things to optimize the browsing experience, and if you’d like to opt out of cookies, etc., then please see that section below. Also, if you leave a comment or sign up for my newsletter, I will have access to the name and email address you provide.

Lovely Greens is reader-supported! That means that the adverts and some of the links on this website can earn me (Tanya Anderson) a commission. Many of my articles are instructional and include ideas on how to make handmade soap and gardening tips. When there’s a product that can help, I’ll link to where you can find it for sale online. Most of these links are affiliate links, meaning that I earn a small commission from any sales made through them. There’s no extra cost to you, and you’re under no obligation to buy from these.

I also have affiliate relationships with the Herbal Academy, MIgardener, Botanical Interests, Amazon, Epic Gardening, and PlantSurge. You may see links or ads appear on some pages; if you make a purchase, I may earn a small commission. Amazon is a stickler for ensuring the affiliate jargon regarding my affiliate relationship with them is correct. Please see below for the blurb I’m required to share with you:
