Privacy & Cookie Policy

1. Introduction

This Privacy & Cookie Policy explains what information we collect when you visit dothinkgrow.com (the "Website"), including the Enlight blog with parables, myths, fairy tales and aphorisms, how we use that information, what cookies and similar technologies are placed on your device — including by third parties — and the choices and opt-out mechanisms available to you.

2. Affiliate advertising and third-party tracking

Please read this section carefully. The Website participates in affiliate advertising and commerce programs. These include the Sovrn Commerce network operated by Sovrn, Inc., and merchant affiliate programs such as the Amazon Associates Program.

When you visit the Website, third parties, including Sovrn and affiliate merchants such as Amazon, place cookies on visitors' browsers in order to track visits to this Website and the purchases and other actions visitors make, so that we can earn advertising fees and sales commissions from qualifying purchases. This is how affiliate programs determine that a visitor came from this Website.

Links to books, audio editions and other products on pages with parables and aphorisms may be affiliate links. If you click such a link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.

These third parties use cookies and similar technologies (such as pixels and device identifiers) on their own behalf and under their own privacy policies, which we do not control. We do not receive your credit card or payment details; merchants process payments themselves.

3. Information we gather

Information you provide: when you contact us through the contact form at /contact, we receive the name, email address and message you provide, and use it only to respond to your inquiry.

Information gathered automatically: like most websites, our content platform automatically collects technical and usage data when you browse the Website. This includes pages viewed, time and duration of visits, the approximate country and city derived from your IP address, your language, the type of device and browser you use, and the website that referred you. Server logs record request data such as IP address and timestamps. This data is used to operate, secure and improve the Website and to compile aggregate statistics.

Cookies: see the cookie table below.

4. Cookies used on this Website

5. Cookie consent

When you first visit the Website, a consent bar appears at the bottom of the page. Choosing "Only essential" limits cookies to the strictly necessary ones above. Choosing "I agree" also allows third-party cookies, including affiliate and statistics cookies. You can withdraw or change your consent at any time by clearing this Website's cookies in your browser settings — the consent bar will then appear again.

6. How we use information

We use the information described above to operate and secure the Website, respond to messages you send us, measure and understand how the Website is used, attribute affiliate referrals so the Website can be monetized, and improve our content.

7. How we share information

We share information only as described in this policy: with Sovrn (affiliate tracking and reporting), with affiliate merchants such as Amazon (purchase attribution), with Google when Google Analytics is active, and with the hosting and infrastructure providers that operate this Website on our behalf. We do not sell personal information.

8. Your opt-out choices

You have several ways to control tracking:

• Sovrn: opt out of Sovrn Commerce tracking via the Sovrn Privacy Center ("Disable Tracking"): https://www.sovrn.com/privacy-policy/policy-center/. Sovrn's privacy policy: https://www.sovrn.com/privacy-policy/privacy-policy/.
• Amazon: manage Amazon's interest-based advertising via Ad Preferences: https://www.amazon.com/adprefs; see also the Amazon Privacy Notice.
• Google Analytics: install the official opt-out browser add-on: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
• Industry opt-out pages: Digital Advertising Alliance WebChoices https://optout.aboutads.info and Network Advertising Initiative https://optout.networkadvertising.org.
• Browser controls: all major browsers let you block or delete cookies, and use "Do Not Track" / global privacy controls where supported. Selecting "Only essential" on our cookie banner restricts the Website itself to strictly necessary cookies.

Blocking or deleting cookies may affect how parts of the Website work.

9. Data retention

Usage data and server logs are kept only as long as needed for the purposes described above. Messages you send through the contact form are kept so we can handle your inquiry.

10. Security

The Website is served over HTTPS. We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we hold; however, no method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure.

11. Children

The Website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

12. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights such as access to, correction, deletion, or objection to processing of your personal data. To exercise any of these rights, contact us through the contact page.

13. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised.
