This Privacy Policy explains how Vital Town ("we," "us," or "our"), operating the website vital.town (the "Site"), collects, uses, and shares information about visitors. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described below.
1. Information we collect
Information you provide
If you contact us — for example, by sending a message to our contact email — we receive the information you choose to share with us, such as your name, email address, and the content of your message. We use this information only to respond to you.
Information collected automatically
When you visit the Site, we and our third-party service providers automatically collect certain technical information, including:
- Your IP address and approximate geographic location
- Your device type, operating system, and browser
- Pages you view on the Site and the time and date of your visit
- The website that referred you to us, if any
- How you interact with page content (scrolls, clicks on outbound links)
Cookies and similar technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Site and measure traffic. A cookie is a small text file stored on your device by your browser. We use two general categories:
- Essential cookies that are necessary for the Site to function.
- Analytics and affiliate cookies set by third-party services such as web analytics providers and affiliate networks (including ClickBank) to measure traffic and attribute purchases to referring affiliates.
You can manage or disable cookies in your browser settings at any time. Disabling cookies will not prevent you from using the Site, but some features may not work as intended.
2. How we use information
We use the information described above to:
- Operate, maintain, and improve the Site
- Understand how visitors use our pages so we can make them more useful
- Respond to questions or messages you send to us
- Protect the Site against abuse, fraud, or malicious activity
- Comply with applicable legal obligations
We do not sell your personal information. We do not share your information with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
3. Affiliate links and third parties
The Site contains affiliate links — most notably to products sold through ClickBank. When you click one of these links, the destination website may place cookies on your device and collect information about your visit and any purchase you make. That information is handled under the privacy policy of the destination website, not ours.
When you click an affiliate link, we receive an anonymous signal (typically a commission attribution) if you complete a purchase. We do not receive your payment details, full name, shipping address, or any identifying purchase information.
Relevant third-party policies include:
- ClickBank Privacy Policy
- Your browser's cookie and tracking settings
4. Analytics
We use standard web analytics tools to understand aggregate traffic patterns (for example, which pages are most read, and from which countries). These tools may use cookies and similar technologies. Information collected this way is used in aggregate form and is not used to identify individual visitors.
5. Data retention
We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, after which it is deleted or anonymized. Email correspondence is kept only as long as necessary to handle your inquiry and any follow-up.
6. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights under applicable law, which may include:
- The right to access the personal information we hold about you
- The right to request correction or deletion of that information
- The right to object to or restrict certain uses of your information
- The right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
- The right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details on our Contact page.
7. Children
The Site is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
8. Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information we collect. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. International visitors
The Site is operated from outside the European Union and the United Kingdom. If you access the Site from those regions or from other jurisdictions with specific data-protection laws, please be aware that information we collect may be transferred to, stored, and processed in other countries. By using the Site, you consent to such transfer where permitted by law.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the date of the most recent changes. Continued use of the Site after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
