When you visit Relationship Blackbook, certain information may be collected automatically through cookies and similar technologies.
This information may include your browser and device type, approximate geographic location, referring website, pages viewed, time spent on the site, interactions with the site, and other technical or usage information.

Cookies and Similar Technologies
Relationship Blackbook and some of our service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, remember information, measure site traffic and usage, and provide certain features.
Cookies are small files stored on your device by a website or service provider. Some cookies are necessary for website functionality, while others may be used for analytics or other purposes.
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking certain cookies may affect how some parts of the website function.
Where required by applicable law, we will provide additional choices or obtain consent for the use of cookies and similar technologies.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google, to help us understand how visitors use Relationship Blackbook.
Google Analytics may collect information about your interactions with the website, including pages visited, session activity, browser and device information, approximate location, and other usage information. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to distinguish visitors and measure website activity.
Google states that IP addresses are not logged or stored in Google Analytics.
Information collected through Google Analytics helps us understand readership patterns, identify popular content, diagnose website issues, and improve Relationship Blackbook.
You can learn more about Google’s privacy practices and controls by visiting Google’s privacy and Google Analytics resources.
Email Newsletter and Brevo
If you subscribe to the Relationship Blackbook newsletter or other email communications, we use Brevo to help manage our mailing list and send emails.
Information you submit when subscribing, such as your email address and any other information requested on the signup form, may be transferred to and processed by Brevo for these purposes.
We may also receive information related to the delivery and performance of our emails, such as whether an email was delivered, opened, or interacted with, depending on the features we use.
You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link included in our emails.
Unsubscribing from marketing communications does not necessarily require us to delete information that we are legally permitted or required to retain.
Jetpack, Comments, and Contact Forms
Relationship Blackbook uses Jetpack, a service provided by Automattic, for certain website functionality.
The information processed by Jetpack depends on the features being used.
When you leave a comment, information such as your name, email address, website address if provided, comment, IP address, and other technical information may be collected or processed. Some information may also be used for spam prevention.
Please remember that comments you post publicly on Relationship Blackbook can be viewed by other visitors. Do not include information in a public comment that you do not want others to see.
When you submit a contact form, we may collect the information you enter into the form, such as your name, email address, website address, and message. Technical information such as an IP address or user agent may also be processed for security or spam-prevention purposes.
Contact form submissions may be stored in our website database and delivered to us by email.
Jetpack and related Automattic services may process information in accordance with their own privacy policies.
Affiliate Links
Relationship Blackbook may participate in affiliate marketing programs.
This means that some links on the website may be affiliate links. If you click an affiliate link and make a purchase or take another qualifying action on a third-party website, Relationship Blackbook may receive a commission or other compensation.
Using an affiliate link generally does not increase the price you pay unless otherwise stated.
When you follow an affiliate link, you leave Relationship Blackbook and interact with a third-party website. That third party may collect information from you according to its own privacy policy and may use cookies or other technologies to attribute a purchase or other action to Relationship Blackbook.
Relationship Blackbook does not process payments for purchases made through affiliate links and does not control how third-party merchants collect or use your information.
Where appropriate, we will also disclose affiliate relationships in or near content containing affiliate recommendations.
How We Share Information
We may share or allow access to information with service providers that help us operate Relationship Blackbook.
These may include providers that assist with:
- Website hosting and technical infrastructure
- Website functionality and security
- Analytics
- Email marketing and newsletter delivery
- Comment and contact-form functionality
- Spam detection and prevention
For example, information may be processed by Google in connection with Google Analytics, Automattic in connection with Jetpack, and Brevo in connection with our email communications.
We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, respond to lawful requests, protect our legal rights, investigate fraud or security issues, or protect the safety and integrity of Relationship Blackbook and its users.
If the website or its assets are transferred as part of a sale, merger, reorganization, or similar business transaction, information associated with the website may be included in that transaction subject to applicable law.
Third-Party Websites
Relationship Blackbook contains links to websites and services that we do not own or control.
When you follow a link to another website, that website’s privacy practices apply. Relationship Blackbook is not responsible for the privacy, security, content, or practices of third-party websites.
We encourage you to review the privacy policies of websites you visit, particularly before providing personal information.
Your Privacy Choices and Rights
Depending on where you live, applicable privacy laws may provide you with certain rights regarding your personal information.
These rights may include the ability to request access to personal information we hold about you, request correction or deletion of certain information, object to or restrict certain processing, withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, or request information about how your personal information is used or disclosed.
These rights are not absolute and may vary depending on your location and the circumstances.
To make a privacy-related request, contact us, we may need to verify your identity before completing certain requests.
You can unsubscribe from Relationship Blackbook marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link provided in those emails.
You can also manage cookies through your browser settings and through any privacy or consent controls made available on the website.
International Visitors
Relationship Blackbook is accessible to readers in many countries.
Because we and our service providers may operate in different countries, information may be processed or stored outside the country where you live. Privacy and data-protection laws may differ between jurisdictions.
Where required by applicable law, appropriate measures will be used in connection with international transfers of personal information.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, including operating the website, providing requested communications, maintaining appropriate business records, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, preventing abuse, and satisfying legal obligations.
Retention periods may differ depending on the type of information and the service involved.
For example, newsletter information may be retained while you remain subscribed and for an appropriate period afterward where necessary to maintain unsubscribe records or comply with legal obligations. Comments may remain on the website unless they are removed. Contact-form information may be retained for an appropriate period based on the nature of the communication.
Some service providers may maintain information according to their own retention settings and policies.
Data Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect the information handled through Relationship Blackbook.
However, no website, internet transmission, or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. We therefore cannot guarantee the absolute security of information transmitted to or stored through the website.
Children’s Privacy
Relationship Blackbook is not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
If we learn that personal information from a child under 13 has been collected through the website in circumstances where it should not have been, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information through Relationship Blackbook, reach out using our contact page.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to Relationship Blackbook, the services we use, our information practices, or applicable requirements.
When we update this policy, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page.
We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
