Thank you for visiting CalendarCute. Your privacy matters. This Privacy Policy explains what personal information we collect, how we use it, when and why we share it, the choices you have, and the legal bases for certain processing. It covers visitors to calendarcute.com and users of any services provided through the site.
1. Data controller / who we are
CalendarCute (operated by the owner of calendarcute.com) is the data controller for the personal information collected on this website. If you have questions or want to exercise your rights, contact us at hello@calendarcute.com.
2. Information we collect
We collect information you provide directly and information collected automatically or from third parties.
a) Information you give us
- Contact information (name, email address) when you send messages through our contact form or email.
- Content you submit (guest posts, comments, or messages).
- Payment or billing details when required for paid services (we use third-party payment processors; we do not store full payment card details on our servers).
b) Information collected automatically
- Usage and technical data, such as IP address, browser type and settings, device identifiers, pages visited, referrer URL, and timestamps.
- Cookies and similar technologies used for functionality, analytics, and advertising.
c) Information from third parties
- Third-party advertising and analytics providers (see Section 6). For example, advertising networks collect information about your visits and may use cookies and other identifiers to serve and measure ads. Google AdSense uses cookies and similar technologies to deliver and personalize ads.
3. How we use your information (purposes)
We may use personal information to:
- Respond to your inquiries and provide support.
- Publish and manage content you submit (guest posts, comments).
- Provide, operate, maintain, and improve the website and features.
- Prevent, detect, and investigate security incidents and abuse.
- Comply with legal obligations.
- Display relevant ads and measure ad performance. For advertising, third parties (including Google) may use collected data to serve personalized ads.
4. Legal bases for processing (for EU / EEA users)
If you are an EU/EEA resident, our legal bases for processing personal data include:
- Consent — for non-essential cookies, newsletters, and certain marketing communications.
- Performance of a contract — where processing is required to provide services you request.
- Legitimate interests — for site security, fraud prevention, basic operation of the website, and improving services (we balance these interests against your rights).
You may withdraw consent at any time for processing based on consent (this will not affect the lawfulness of processing prior to withdrawal). See Section 9 for how to exercise your rights. The European GDPR sets out these rights and obligations.
5. Cookies & similar tracking technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies for functionality, analytics, and advertising.
- Essential cookies — required for site operation (session, login, spam prevention).
- Performance/analytics cookies — measure and help improve the site experience.
- Advertising/targeting cookies — used to serve and measure ads and to build audience profiles.
You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings and, where available, through our cookie consent tool. Note that Google and other ad partners use cookies for ad personalization; you can control Google’s ad personalization and opt out of certain uses via Google Ad Settings or industry opt-out tools.
For guidance on cookie consent and rules in the UK/EU, consult your local regulator (for example, the UK ICO).
6. Third-party services and advertising
We work with third-party service providers to run and monetize the site. These providers may collect information about you when you visit our site. Common partners include advertising networks, analytics providers, and hosting and email providers.
Google AdSense / Google Ads & related services
We use Google AdSense to display ads. Google and its partners may use cookies and other identifiers to collect data for ad personalization, ad measurement, and fraud prevention. If you want to opt out of personalized ads from Google, you can use Google’s Ad Settings or industry opt-out tools such as the Digital Advertising Alliance (aboutads.info).
Note: Third parties have their own privacy practices. We do not control the privacy practices of third parties; please consult their privacy policies for more details.
7. Sharing of personal information
We may share personal information with:
- Service providers who perform services on our behalf (hosting, email delivery, analytics, payment processing);
- Advertising partners to serve and measure advertising;
- Legal or regulatory authorities when required by law, or to protect rights, safety, or property;
- In connection with a business transaction (sale, merger, or reorganization) — users would be notified where required by law.
We require vendors to protect personal data and only use it for the contracted purposes.
8. International transfers
Our servers and third-party service providers may be located in countries outside your jurisdiction (including the United States). Where data is transferred internationally, we rely on appropriate safeguards (e.g., standard contractual clauses or other lawful transfer mechanisms) as required by applicable law. If you are in the EU or UK and want details about the safeguards in place, contact us at hello@calendarcute.com.
9. Your rights & choices
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights:
For EU / EEA users (GDPR)
- Right to access personal data we hold about you.
- Right to rectify inaccurate data.
- Right to erase (right to be forgotten) in certain circumstances.
- Right to restrict or object to processing.

For California residents (CCPA / CPRA)
California residents have specific rights, including:
- The right to know what personal information is collected, used, shared, or sold.
- The right to request deletion of personal information.

How to make a request
Send a clear request to hello@calendarcute.com with sufficient information to identify you and the request. We may ask to verify your identity for security. We aim to respond in accordance with applicable law.
10. Opting out of targeted advertising
You can control ad personalization in a few ways:
- Use the ad settings provided by Google (Google Ad Settings) for personalized ads.
- Use industry opt-out sites such as aboutads.info.
- Disable or remove cookies via your browser (note this may affect site functionality and you may still see non-personalized ads).
11. Children’s privacy
CalendarCute is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected information from a child under 13 without parental consent, we will take steps to delete such information. For websites that do collect children’s data, COPPA imposes additional requirements; you can read the FTC guidance for further details.
12. Data retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Retention periods vary by data type (contact messages, account info, analytics logs). Where third parties process data (advertising networks, analytics), their retention policies apply as well.
13. Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no internet transmission is completely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.
14. Changes to this Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Effective date” at the top will reflect the date of the most recent update. We encourage you to review this policy regularly; material changes will be communicated where required.
15. Contact & enforcement
If you have questions about this policy, would like to exercise your rights, or want more detail about how we process personal data, email hello@calendarcute.com or use the contact form.
If you are an EU/EEA or UK resident and you believe we have not adequately addressed your complaint, you may lodge a complaint with your local data protection supervisory authority. If you are in California, you may have additional enforcement rights under state law. See the official government resources for GDPR and CCPA for further information.
