At Home Glow, your privacy is not a formality — it is a commitment. This policy explains clearly and honestly how we collect, use, and protect your personal information.

Last updated: May 2026

1. Who We Are

Home Glow (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates the website homzidecor.com, a luxury home decor editorial platform dedicated to beautiful spaces, considered living, and the objects that make a house a home. We are the data controller for personal information collected through this website.

Our registered contact email is contact@homzidecor.com. We take our responsibility as a data controller seriously, and this Privacy Policy is designed to help you understand exactly what we do with your data — and why.

2. Information We Collect

We collect information in two ways — directly from you, and automatically through your use of our website.

Information you provide directly:

• Your name and email address when subscribing to our newsletter, The Friday Glow
• Contact details when you submit a contact form or editorial enquiry
• Payment information when making a purchase (processed securely by third-party payment providers — we never store card details)
• Comments or messages you submit through our website
• Your preferences and interests if you complete any surveys or feedback forms

Information collected automatically:

• IP address and browser type
• Pages visited and time spent on the website
• Referring website or search terms used to find us
• Device information including operating system and screen resolution
• Click behaviour and scroll depth through analytics tools
• Cookie data (see Section 4 for full details)

3. How We Use Your Information

We use your personal information only for legitimate purposes, and only to the extent necessary to fulfil those purposes. Specifically, we use your data:

• To send our weekly newsletter, The Friday Glow, to subscribers who have opted in
• To respond to enquiries and provide customer support promptly and helpfully
• To process orders and manage any memberships or subscriptions
• To improve our website content, performance, and user experience through analytics
• To personalise your experience and show you content most relevant to your interests
• To comply with legal obligations and protect our legitimate business interests
• To detect and prevent fraud or security breaches
• To send you occasional editorial updates if you have given permission to do so

We will never use your data for purposes beyond those described here without first obtaining your explicit consent.

4. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to enhance your browsing experience and understand how visitors use our site. We use three categories of cookies:

Essential Cookies

These are strictly necessary for the website to function. They cannot be disabled. They include session management, security tokens, and basic functionality cookies.

Analytics Cookies

We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website. This helps us improve our content and user experience. Analytics cookies collect anonymous, aggregated data — they cannot identify you personally.

Preference Cookies

These cookies remember your settings and preferences to personalise your experience on return visits.

You may disable cookies through your browser settings at any time. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of some features of our website. For more information about managing cookies, visit allaboutcookies.org.

5. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes. We value your trust and take your privacy seriously. We may share your data only in the following limited circumstances:

• Service providers: Trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, delivering our newsletter, processing payments, and providing analytics — under strict confidentiality agreements
• Legal requirements: If required by law, court order, or government authority
• Business protection: To protect the rights, property, and safety of Home Glow and its users
• Business transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred to the new entity

All third parties we work with are required to handle your data in compliance with applicable data protection laws.

6. Data Retention

We retain your personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes for which it was collected:

• Newsletter subscribers: Until you unsubscribe or request deletion
• Contact enquiries: For up to 2 years from the date of your last contact
• Purchase records: For up to 7 years for legal and accounting purposes
• Analytics data: Aggregated and anonymised data retained for up to 26 months
• Comment data: Until you request deletion or we decide to remove it

When data is no longer needed, it is securely deleted or anonymised.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have significant rights regarding your personal data. These include:

• Right to access: Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
• Right to rectification: Ask us to correct any inaccurate or incomplete data
• Right to erasure: Request that we delete your personal data in certain circumstances
• Right to restrict processing: Ask us to limit how we use your data
• Right to data portability: Receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format
• Right to object: Object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing
• Right to withdraw consent: Withdraw any consent you have previously given at any time

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at contact@homzidecor.com. We will respond to all legitimate requests within 30 days.

8. International Data Transfers

Some of the third-party service providers we use may be located outside your country of residence. Where we transfer data internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with applicable data protection legislation, including Standard Contractual Clauses where required.

9. Security

We implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Our website uses SSL encryption for all data transmissions. Access to personal data within our organisation is restricted to those who genuinely need it.

However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your data, we cannot guarantee absolute security and encourage you to take precautions with your own online security.

10. Children’s Privacy

Our website is not directed at children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately and we will take steps to delete it.

11. Third-Party Links

Our website contains links to third-party websites, products, and services. This Privacy Policy applies only to homzidecor.com. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external sites and encourage you to read their privacy policies before sharing any personal information.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, or legal requirements. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Your continued use of our website after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
