Privacy Policy

Here at the Duggar Family Blog, your privacy and trust are of utmost importance to us. As a website, this Privacy Policy is something we must provide to our readers.

Comments

On some occasions, readers will share personal information via a public comment. Such personal information is completely voluntarily, as comments can be submitted to our Site without an email or legal name (you can fill in the “Name” entry with anything you wish, even Anonymous). Therefore, any information that you provide may not be protected. We do our best to hide email addresses and other sensitive information (not including names) before allowing comments to appear on the Site. However, there is a possibility that said information will not be properly deleted and will be visible to others.

Giveaway/Promotion Entries

When you enter a giveaway or promotion on our Site and provide personal information via the widget or other software that we use to manage entries, such information cannot be guaranteed to be protected by us, as the widget/software is developed by a third party. In addition, any information provided by the winner, including that which is provided to us via email, may be shared with the sponsor of the giveaway/promotion, if that sponsor is the party responsible for shipping or emailing the prize to the winner.

Email Addresses

We may collect your email address, but only if you voluntarily provide it to us. For information on emails and other personal information that you provide to us when entering a giveaway or promotion, see section entitled "Giveaway/Promotion Entries." For information on email addresses submitted with public comments to the Site, see section entitled "Comments."

You may share your email with us in other ways, such as when you sign up to receive our email updates or when you send us private emails. In addition to using your email address for the purposes for which you provided it to us, we might use it to send you emails regarding the Site, topics covered on the Site, or other products or services that we believe may be of interest to you. We will not share your email address with any third parties, unless in connection with a giveaway or promotion that you entered. Your email address may be shared with the technology provider(s) we use in connection with the purposes for which you provided it. Note: You may opt out of our email updates at any time by clicking the “unsubscribe” button in the emails.
