1. Overview
My Cozy Edge (“we“, “us“, or “the site“) is a home décor and lifestyle content website operated from Australia. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling any personal information we collect with care and transparency.
This Privacy Policy describes what information we collect when you visit mycozyedge.com, how we use it, who we share it with, and what rights you have over your data. By using this site you agree to the practices described in this policy.
2. Information We Collect
We collect information in two ways: automatically when you visit the site, and voluntarily when you contact us.
Automatically collected information may include:
- IP address (anonymised where possible)

We do not currently operate a newsletter, comment system, or user account system. If we introduce these features in the future, this policy will be updated accordingly.
4. Affiliate Links & Third-Party Tracking
My Cozy Edge participates in the Amazon Associates Programme, an affiliate advertising programme designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon. We use the following tracking IDs:

Amazon has its own Privacy Policy which governs how they use data collected through their services. We encourage you to review Amazon’s Privacy Notice for full details.
