DaybrightCraft (“we”, “our”, or “us”) operates the website daybrightcraft.com. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights in relation to it. We are committed to being transparent and straightforward about our data practices.
What This Site Does
daybrightcraft.com is a content and brand site for our digital template products. We do not process payments on this website. All purchases are handled by third-party marketplaces — Etsy and Gumroad — which have their own privacy policies. We are only responsible for data that passes through daybrightcraft.com itself.
Information We Collect
We collect minimal information, and only what is necessary to operate the site:
- Comments: If you leave a comment on a blog post, we collect your name, email address, and the content of your comment. Your email address is not published; it is used only for spam detection and to notify you of replies if you opt in.
- Server logs: Our hosting provider automatically records standard server log data (IP address, browser type, pages visited, timestamps). These logs are used for security monitoring and diagnosing technical issues. They are not linked to your identity unless required for security purposes.
- Newsletter (optional): If you choose to subscribe to our email newsletter, we collect your email address via Beehiiv, our newsletter platform. Subscription is entirely voluntary. You can unsubscribe at any time via the link in any email.
- Cookies: The site uses functional cookies set by WordPress (e.g., to remember comment preferences) and may use analytics cookies to understand how visitors use the site. See the Cookies section below for details.
We do not collect payment information, government IDs, health data, or any sensitive personal data through this site.
How We Use Your Information
- To operate and maintain the website (server logs, security)
- To display and manage reader comments
- To send newsletters to subscribers (Beehiiv), if you have opted in
- To understand how visitors find and use our content (analytics), so we can improve it
- To share our products on Pinterest via our business account (automated pin scheduling)
We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your information for advertising targeting beyond sharing our own content on our own social media accounts.
Third-Party Services
We use a small number of third-party services to operate this site and our business. Each service has its own privacy policy:
- Etsy (etsy.com) — Our primary storefront for selling digital templates. When you purchase through Etsy, Etsy’s privacy policy governs the transaction. We receive only what Etsy shares with sellers (order details, no full payment data).
- Gumroad (gumroad.com) — A secondary storefront for digital downloads. Purchases on Gumroad are governed by Gumroad’s privacy policy.
- Pinterest (pinterest.com) — We maintain a Pinterest business account to share product pins and blog guides. We use the Pinterest API to publish pins programmatically to our own boards. We read only our own Pinterest analytics. No visitor data from daybrightcraft.com is shared with Pinterest beyond standard referral metadata.
- Beehiiv (beehiiv.com) — Our email newsletter platform. If you subscribe to our newsletter, your email address is stored and processed by Beehiiv under their privacy policy. You can unsubscribe at any time.
- Google — We may use Google services (such as Google Analytics or Google-hosted fonts) to understand site traffic and improve performance. Google may set cookies and collect usage data in accordance with Google’s privacy policy. You can opt out of Google Analytics via the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
Cookies
This site uses cookies — small text files stored in your browser. We use:
- Functional cookies set by WordPress (e.g.,
wordpress_logged_in_*,wp-settings-*) that keep the site working correctly for logged-in users and remember comment preferences. - Analytics cookies (e.g., from Google Analytics) that help us understand which pages are visited and where traffic comes from. These cookies do not identify you personally.
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling functional cookies may affect how the site works. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies via Settings → Privacy or a similar menu.
Data Retention
- Comments: Retained indefinitely unless you request deletion.
- Server logs: Typically retained for 30–90 days by our hosting provider, then automatically purged.
- Newsletter subscribers: Retained until you unsubscribe. After unsubscription, Beehiiv may retain a suppression record to honor your opt-out.
Your Rights (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or UK, you have the following rights under GDPR:
- Right of access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Right to rectification: Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data.

International Data Transfers

Our hosting provider and third-party services (Etsy, Gumroad, Beehiiv, Google, Pinterest) may store or process data in countries outside your own, including the United States. These transfers are covered by appropriate safeguards under applicable law (such as standard contractual clauses for EEA transfers). By using this site, you acknowledge this.
