Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Frugal Life Project (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit frugallifeproject.com. By using this site you agree to the practices described here. Last updated: February 2026.

Information We May Collect

Automatically collected data. When you visit the site, our hosting provider and analytics tools may automatically log your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring URLs. This data is used in aggregate to understand how the site is used and to improve it.

Information you provide. If you subscribe to a newsletter, request a free download, or fill out a contact form, we collect the information you submit — such as your email address. We use this only to send you the content you requested or to respond to your message.

Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. This site may use cookies for the following purposes:

• Analytics cookies — to understand how visitors use the site (e.g. Google Analytics)
• Affiliate cookies — set by affiliate networks when you click a paid link; these are third-party cookies we do not control
• Functional cookies — to remember preferences or settings where applicable

You can disable or clear cookies in your browser settings at any time. Note that disabling cookies may affect some site functionality.

How We Use Your Information

We use collected data to operate and improve the site, respond to enquiries, send newsletters or downloads you have requested, and comply with legal obligations. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

Who We Share Your Data With

We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited data with service providers that help operate the website (such as hosting or spam protection), or if required by law.

Third-Party Services

Google Analytics — website traffic analysis. See Google’s Privacy Policy. You can opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Amazon Associates — affiliate link tracking. See Amazon’s Privacy Notice.

Pinterest — we maintain a Pinterest presence. See Pinterest’s Privacy Policy.

Email marketing. If you subscribe to our email list, your email address may be stored and managed by a third-party email provider (such as ConvertKit or Mailchimp). These providers operate under their own privacy policies.

Display advertising. We do not currently run display advertising on this site. If this changes, this policy will be updated to reflect any ad networks used and their data practices.

We may add other third-party tools over time. Each operates under its own privacy terms.

Embedded Content

Articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos or images from other platforms. Embedded content behaves as if you visited those sites directly, and they may collect data according to their own privacy policies.

Your Rights

We do not sell your personal information.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you, opt out of email communications at any time (every email includes an unsubscribe link), or withdraw consent where consent was the legal basis for processing.

To make a request, contact us via the Contact page. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe.

Data Retention

Analytics data is retained only as long as needed to operate and improve the site. Email addresses are retained until you unsubscribe or request deletion. Contact messages are retained only as long as needed to resolve your enquiry.

Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect information submitted to this site. However, no internet transmission is fully secure and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children’s Privacy

This site is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted information to us, please contact us so we can remove it promptly.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time — for example when we add new tools, enable an email list, or introduce paid products. Changes will be posted on this page with a revised “Last updated” date. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
