Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2025

At Enriched Paws (enrichedpaws.site), we keep things simple: we collect as little information as possible, we never sell your data, and we try to be upfront about everything that happens behind the scenes when you visit our site. Here is exactly what that looks like.

Information We Collect

When you browse Enriched Paws, a few things are collected automatically:

  • Analytics data — We use Google Analytics and Google Search Console to see things like how many people visited a page, which browser they used, and roughly where in the world they are. This data is aggregated, meaning we see numbers and trends, not individual profiles.
  • Cookies — Small text files are placed on your device by us and by third-party services we use (more on those below). These help pages load correctly and let analytics tools count visits.
  • Contact form data — If we add a contact form in the future, any name or email address you submit would be stored only long enough to respond to your message. We would not use it for marketing or share it with anyone else.

We do not collect your name, email address, or any personal details simply because you read an article.

How We Use Your Information

Straightforward answer: we use analytics data to understand which topics are helpful to pet owners and to improve the content we write. That is it.

  • We do not sell your data to anyone.
  • We do not use your data to run ad campaigns targeting you.
  • We do not build personal profiles on our visitors.

If we ever see that a particular article on dog enrichment toys gets a lot of traffic, we take that as a signal to write more on that topic. That is the extent of our “using” your data.

Third-Party Services

A few outside services run on this site, and each has its own privacy practices:

  • Google Analytics and Google Search Console — Track site performance and search visibility. See Google’s Privacy Policy for details.
  • Pinterest — We share content on Pinterest. If you click through from a Pin, Pinterest may track that interaction per their own policies.
  • Facebook and Instagram — We have social pages on these platforms. If you interact with our content there, Meta’s data practices apply.
  • Amazon Associates — We link to products on Amazon. As an Amazon Associates affiliate, Amazon may use cookies to track referrals. See Amazon’s Privacy Notice for more information.

We do not control what these third parties collect. We encourage you to review their individual privacy policies if you have concerns.

Cookies

A cookie is a tiny file saved to your browser that helps websites remember things — like that you have visited before, or which page you came from. Cookies on Enriched Paws come mainly from Google Analytics and Amazon Associates.

If you would rather not have cookies placed on your device, here is how to stop them:

  • Browser settings — Every major browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge) lets you block or delete cookies in its settings menu. Search “disable cookies” plus your browser name for step-by-step instructions.
  • Google Analytics opt-out — Google offers a browser add-on that prevents your visits from being counted in Analytics.

Disabling cookies will not stop you from reading anything on our site.

Affiliate Disclosure

Enriched Paws is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program. This means that when you click a product link on our site and make a purchase on Amazon, we may earn a small commission — at no extra cost to you. The price you see on Amazon is the same whether you click our link or go directly to Amazon.

We only link to products we genuinely think are worth recommending. A commission never changes which products we mention or what we say about them.

Children’s Privacy

Enriched Paws is written for adult pet owners and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted personal information to us, please reach out and we will delete it promptly.

Contact

Have a question about this privacy policy or how your information is handled? We are happy to talk through it. Reach us through our contact page and we will get back to you as soon as we can.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time — for example, if we add a new feature or a third-party service changes how it works. When we do, we will update the date at the top of this page. We recommend checking back periodically if this is something you care about. Continuing to use Enriched Paws after a change means you are comfortable with the updated policy.
