Privacy Policy & Disclaimers

This Privacy Policy explains how information about you is collected, used and disclosed by Nick Maison. This Privacy Policy applies to information we collect when you use “Services”, or when you otherwise interact with us. 

We encourage you to review our Privacy Policy whenever you access the Services or otherwise interact with us to stay informed about our information practices and the ways you can help protect your privacy.

Content

All content is created and owned by me unless stated otherwise (for example guest blog posts, for which I will always provide the appropriate credit). Please do not copy content or images without prior permission or without crediting me.

Sponsored Content

From time to time, this website will accept forms of compensation and will feature sponsored content. This will include paid blog posts or reviews. All such posts will be clearly marked in the first paragraphs.

Affiliate Links

This blog will occasionally feature affiliate links. What does that mean for you?

If you make a purchase through one of my affiliate links, I will receive a small commission or referral fee at no extra cost to you. Posts containing affiliate links will be marked as such somewhere in the first paragraphs.

I will only ever recommend products or services that I believe in. If you choose to make a purchase through one of my affiliate links, I would like to personally thank for supporting me and my blog.

Marketing Emails

We may send you marketing emails and communications when you have opted in or otherwise given consent for us to do so. By signing up to my email list (usually referred to as opting in), you agree to receive email communications from us including but not limited to newsletters, site updates, promotion resources, and other announcements and correspondence. We accept no responsibility for the accurate receipt of any such emails and you are responsible for ensuring that your email address is not blocked or impaired in any way, including by ensuring the ‘white-listing’ of our email address.

You can stop these emails at any time by unsubscribing. We will make it as easy as we can for you to opt out of unwanted processing, providing it does not restrict our ability to provide you with the primary service you have requested.  For the avoidance of doubt, I do not share emails with third parties and do not spam.

If you unsubscribe from receiving our emails, you acknowledge and understand that you may no longer receive information or updates from Nick Maison, related products or courses, or any of our other properties.
