Welcome to Backyard Corner. We value your privacy and are committed to protecting any personal information you share with us. This Privacy Policy outlines what data we collect, how we use it, how it is stored, and your rights regarding your information. By visiting or using https://backyardcorner.com, you agree to the practices described below.
Information We Collect and How We Use It
At Backyard Corner, we collect both personal and non-personal information to improve your experience and provide content that’s helpful and relevant.
Personal information (like your name and email address) is only collected when you voluntarily provide it—for example, when you:
- Subscribe to our newsletter
- Contact us via email
- Leave a comment on a blog post
We use this information to respond to your inquiries, send occasional updates, and share gardening tips, tool reviews, or promotional content (only if you’ve opted in).
We also collect non-personal, technical data such as:
- IP address
- Browser type
- Pages visited
- Device type
- Referral source
This data helps us understand how users engage with our website and allows us to improve performance, design, and functionality. Tools like Google Analytics may be used to collect this information, which is anonymized and never used to personally identify you.
We do not sell or rent your personal information. Data collected is used solely to enhance your browsing experience and communicate when requested.
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies—small text files stored on your device—to personalize your experience, remember your preferences, and analyze site traffic.
Cookies help us:
- Recognize returning visitors
- Improve navigation and page speed
- Understand user behavior
- Support advertising or affiliate tracking
We may use tools like Google Analytics or advertising platforms that place cookies in your browser. These help us collect aggregate data such as time spent on site, pages visited, and links clicked.
You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may impact some features of the site. Your continued use of https://backyardcorner.com implies consent unless you choose to opt out via your browser.
Third-Party Links and Services
Backyard Corner may link to third-party websites or services, such as:
- Affiliate product recommendations
- External gardening tools or supply sites

These external sites have their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party websites. Always review their policies before sharing personal data.
We may also use third-party services (e.g., Google Ads, Amazon affiliates, social sharing tools) that collect anonymous data through cookies. We do not receive personal information from these providers.
Data Security and Storage
We implement industry-standard security measures such as HTTPS encryption to protect your personal information. All voluntarily submitted data is stored securely and only accessible to authorized personnel.
We do not store sensitive financial details or passwords. All communication and data analytics are managed using trusted third-party platforms that comply with standard data protection protocols.
While we take every step to protect your information, no online platform is 100% secure. In the unlikely event of a breach, we will notify affected users as required by law.
