3. How and Why We Use Your Information
We may process personal information for the following purposes:
Operating and Securing the Website
Technical data may be processed to display the website, maintain its functionality, prevent fraud, detect malicious activity and protect the website and its visitors.
The legal basis is our legitimate interest in operating a functional and secure website under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Responding to Messages
When you contact us, we use the information you provide to read and respond to your enquiry.
The legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR when the communication relates to a requested service or possible agreement. For general enquiries, the legal basis is our legitimate interest under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Managing Comments
We process comment information to publish, moderate and respond to comments and to detect spam or abuse.
The legal basis is our legitimate interest in operating an interactive and secure website under Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
Sending Newsletters
We use your email address to send newsletters and content you requested.
The legal basis is your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may withdraw your consent at any time by selecting the unsubscribe link in any newsletter.
Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that took place before the withdrawal.
Cookies and Optional Services
Where required, non-essential cookies, personalization tools, marketing technologies and similar services are used only with your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.
Legal Requirements
We may process or retain information when necessary to comply with a legal obligation under Article 6(1)(c) GDPR or to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
4. Comments
When visitors leave comments, we collect the information entered in the comments form. We may also collect the visitor’s IP address and browser user-agent information to assist with spam detection, security and moderation.
An anonymized string created from your email address, sometimes called a hash, may be sent to the Gravatar service to determine whether you use it. Gravatar is operated by Automattic.
After your comment is approved, your comment, chosen display name and Gravatar profile image, if applicable, may be publicly visible.
Visitor comments may be checked using an automated spam-detection service.
5. Contact Form and Email Communication
When you use our contact form, we collect your name, email address, message and any other information you submit.
The contact form is provided through WordPress and SureForms. Form information may be stored within the website’s hosting environment and may also be delivered to our email account.
We use this information only to:
- Read and respond to your message
- Provide information you requested
- Maintain necessary records of the communication
- Prevent spam, fraud or misuse
Submitting the contact form does not automatically subscribe you to marketing emails.
6. Newsletter and Grow by Mediavine
Cozy Vibe Studio uses Grow by Mediavine to provide newsletter subscription forms and audience features.
When you subscribe through Grow or create a Grow account, Mediavine may process information including:
- Your email address
- Your name, when provided
- IP address and approximate location
- Browser, operating system and device information
- Language information
- Unique identifiers
- Subscription and account activity
- Content preferences, saved items or bookmarks
Grow may use a hashed version of your email address for identity and interest-based advertising purposes. A hash is a converted identifier rather than a directly readable email address. Mediavine may share identifiers and related information with advertising or identity partners as described in its own privacy notice and according to applicable consent requirements.
Mediavine may transfer and store information in the United States. Grow by Mediavine states that it uses Standard Contractual Clauses to safeguard transfers subject to EU or UK data-protection laws.
You can unsubscribe from Cozy Vibe Studio newsletters at any time through the unsubscribe link included in each email.
For information about how Mediavine processes Grow information or to submit a request relating specifically to Grow.
You may also contact Mediavine at privacy@mediavine.com.
7. Cookies and Consent Preferences
Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the website, remember preferences, provide requested features and, where consent is provided, support analytics, personalization or marketing.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies support security, website navigation, consent management and other functions required for the website to work. These cookies cannot normally be disabled through the website’s consent tool.
Comment Cookies
If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address and website in cookies. This is for your convenience so you do not need to enter those details again when leaving another comment. These cookies may last for up to one year.
Login Cookies
The public website does not currently provide general WordPress account registration. However, WordPress may use temporary and administrative cookies when an authorized user visits the login page or signs into the website.
A temporary cookie may be used to determine whether the browser accepts cookies. Login and display-preference cookies may also be created for authorized users.
Functional, Analytics and Marketing Cookies
Optional cookies may support features such as saved preferences, audience measurement, personalized content or marketing. Where legally required, these cookies are activated only after consent.
Cookie Consent Records
We use SureCookie to display the cookie banner and record visitors’ cookie choices. A consent record may include the selected preferences, date and time, and technical information necessary to demonstrate and remember the choice.
Cookie preferences are currently set to remain valid for up to 12 months unless you delete your browser cookies or change your selection earlier.
You can review or change your choices at any time by selecting Cookie Preferences on the website.
You may also block or delete cookies using your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect website functionality.
8. Google Fonts
This website currently uses Google Fonts to display its typography. Google Fonts is provided by Google Ireland Limited for users in the European Economic Area and Switzerland.
When fonts are requested from Google’s servers, your browser may transmit your IP address, browser information and other technical details to Google.
More information is available in the Google Privacy Policy:
https://policies.google.com/privacy
Where consent is legally required for this external connection, the appropriate legal basis is your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR.
9. Embedded Content
Articles and pages may include embedded content such as videos, images, social-media posts, maps or content from other websites.
Embedded content can behave in the same way as if you visited the third-party website directly. Those websites may:
- Collect information about you
- Use cookies or similar technologies
- Include additional tracking
- Monitor your interaction with the embedded content
- Connect the interaction to your account if you are logged into their service
Where legally required, non-essential embedded content should load only after you provide consent.
The third party’s own privacy policy applies to its processing of your information.
10. External and Affiliate Links
The website may link to other websites, products or services. Some links may be affiliate links, which means Cozy Vibe Studio may earn a commission if you purchase something after following the link, at no additional cost to you.
When you follow an external or affiliate link, the destination website may collect information according to its own privacy and cookie policies. Cozy Vibe Studio does not control the privacy practices of external websites.
11. Who We Share Information With
We may disclose personal information only when necessary to operate the website or comply with the law. Recipients may include:

Cozy Vibe Studio does not independently sell personal information for money. However, Mediavine may share, license or sell certain identifiers and advertising-related information as described in its Privacy Notice.
If you request a password reset through an authorized account, your IP address may be included in the reset email.
12. International Data Transfers
Some service providers, including Mediavine and Google, may process information outside Germany or the European Economic Area, including in the United States.
Where required, transfers are protected through an adequacy decision, Standard Contractual Clauses or another legally recognized safeguard.
You may contact us if you would like additional information about safeguards relating to a particular transfer.
13. How Long We Retain Information
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which it was collected or as required by law.
Generally:
- Comments: Comments and their metadata may be retained indefinitely so follow-up comments can be recognized and moderated.
- Contact messages: Normally retained until the enquiry is resolved and for up to 12 months afterward, unless a longer period is required for legal or administrative reasons.
- Newsletter information: Retained until you unsubscribe or withdraw consent. Limited information may be retained afterward to ensure we continue to respect your opt-out request.
- Cookie-consent records: Normally retained for up to 12 months.
- Technical and security logs: Retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to maintain security, investigate problems and protect the website.
- Grow information: Retained by Mediavine according to its privacy notice, normally until a deletion request is made or the information is no longer required.
Information may be retained longer when necessary to comply with tax, accounting, legal or security obligations or to establish, exercise or defend legal claims.
