Privacy Policy

GreatHealthGear is operated from the Netherlands and complies with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This policy explains what data we collect, why, and what rights you have over it. It is written in plain English because that is the only way a privacy policy is actually useful.

What data we collect

We collect minimal data. When you visit the site, our hosting provider and analytics service may log standard technical information: your IP address (anonymised before storage), the pages you visit, the time and date of your visit, your browser type, and the referring URL. We do not collect your name, email address, or any other personal information unless you contact us directly.

If you contact us by email, we store your email address and the content of the message for as long as is necessary to respond. We do not add you to any mailing list without explicit consent.

Analytics

We use analytics software to understand how visitors use the site — which pages are read, how long people spend on them, and where traffic comes from. This helps us decide what content to produce and improve the site experience. Analytics data is aggregated and anonymised. We do not use it to identify individual users.

We use [analytics provider — placeholder: update when confirmed] for site analytics. If you prefer not to be tracked by analytics software, you can use a browser extension that blocks tracking scripts, such as uBlock Origin.

Cookies

We use functional cookies to ensure the site operates correctly and analytics cookies to measure site performance (as described above). We do not use advertising cookies or sell cookie data to third parties. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though this may affect how some parts of the site function.

Affiliate link tracking

When you click an affiliate link on this site, the retailer's tracking system records the referral. This is handled entirely by the retailer — we do not receive any personal data from this process, only aggregate commission reports. For more information about how specific retailers handle tracking data, refer to their respective privacy policies (for example, Amazon's privacy notice).

Third-party services

This site uses Google Fonts to serve typefaces. Google Fonts may log your IP address when fonts are requested. If you are concerned about this, you can use a browser extension that blocks Google Fonts requests. We do not use third-party advertising networks or social media tracking pixels.

Your rights under GDPR

If you are based in the European Economic Area, you have the following rights regarding any personal data we hold about you:

• Right of access — you can ask what data we hold about you.
• Right to rectification — you can ask us to correct inaccurate data.
• Right to erasure — you can ask us to delete personal data we hold about you.
• Right to data portability — you can ask for a copy of your data in a machine-readable format.
• Right to object — you can object to us processing your data in certain circumstances.

To exercise any of these rights, email hello@greathealthgear.com. We will respond within 30 days.

Data retention

Email correspondence is retained for as long as necessary to handle the communication and for a reasonable period thereafter. Analytics data is retained according to the analytics provider's default retention settings. We do not retain personal data longer than necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "last updated" date at the top of the page reflects when changes were last made. Significant changes will be noted clearly.
