Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 27, 2026

Pot and Plot (“we”, “our”, “us”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit potandplot.com and how we use it.

Information we collect

Information you provide. If you contact us, we receive whatever information you include in your message. We use it only to respond to you.

Automatically collected information. Like most websites, our servers log basic technical data: your IP address, browser type, referring page, pages visited, and time spent on the site. This helps us keep the site running smoothly and understand which content readers find useful.

Cookies

We use a small number of cookies — small text files stored on your device:

WordPress core. This site runs on WordPress, which sets cookies for basic site functionality, such as remembering your preferences if you leave a comment and managing sessions for logged-in users.

No analytics tracking. We do not currently use analytics tools that track you across the site, and we do not set analytics cookies.

Affiliate links. Some pages contain affiliate links, including links to Amazon.com. If you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. Affiliate partners may use cookies to track referrals. See our Affiliate Disclosure for details.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling cookies may affect how some parts of the site function.

Advertising

We do not currently display ads on this site. In the future, we may display ads served by an advertising network such as Google AdSense. If we do, the ad provider may use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites, and we will update this policy to reflect that.

How we use information

  • To operate and improve the website and its content
  • To respond to your messages

We do not sell your personal information to anyone, ever.

Data retention

We keep messages only as long as needed to respond and for reasonable record-keeping. Server logs are retained for a limited time by our hosting provider.

Children’s privacy

Pot and Plot is a general-audience gardening publication and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete your personal information (including under the GDPR and the California Consumer Privacy Act). To exercise any of these rights, reach us through our Contact page and we will respond within a reasonable timeframe.

Third-party links

Our site links to third-party websites, including Amazon.com. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external sites; please review their policies directly.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date above reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated policy.
