Privacy Policy
Last updated: 16 August 2025
We care about your privacy. This policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit adriennefritze.com.
Who We Are
This site is run by artist and creative instigator Adrienne Fritze.
Website: https://adriennefritze.com
What Personal Data We Collect & Why
Comments
When you leave comments, we collect the information shown in the comment form, plus your IP address and browser type to help prevent spam.
If you use Gravatar, an anonymized version of your email may be sent to check for a profile image. Read Gravatar's privacy policy.
Media Uploads
If you upload images, avoid including location (EXIF GPS) data. Visitors can potentially download and extract that info.
Contact Forms
When you use a contact form, we collect your name, email address, and message content. We use this data to reply to your inquiry—never for marketing without your permission.
Cookies
If you leave a comment, you can choose to save your name, email, and site in cookies (so you don't have to re-type them later). These last one year.
When logging in, temporary cookies help remember your settings and screen preferences.
Editing or publishing a post sets a temporary cookie to note the post ID—no personal info is stored.
Embedded Content
Some pages may include embedded content (e.g., videos, social posts). These behave as if you visited the source website directly. They may collect data and use tracking cookies.
Analytics
We may use simple tools (like Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use our site so we can improve the experience. No personally identifiable information is shared.
Who We Share Your Data With
We don’t sell or rent your information—ever.
If you request a password reset, your IP address is included in the reset email for verification.
How Long We Keep Your Data
- Comments: Stored indefinitely (so we can auto-approve future ones).
- Registered users (if applicable): Your info stays until you delete your account or request removal.
Your Rights Over Your Data
At any time, you can:
- Ask for a copy of your data.
- Request that we delete your personal info.
- Update or correct anything that’s outdated.
This excludes data we're required to keep for legal, security, or admin reasons.
Where Your Data Goes
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam-detection service.

Additional Information
How We Protect Your Data
We use standard security protocols (SSL encryption, password protection) and limit who can access your information. We keep plugins and platform tools up to date to minimize risk.
What Data Breach Procedures We Have
In case of a breach, we'll notify affected users promptly and take immediate action to secure the site.
What Third Parties We Receive Data From
If you use third-party logins (like social media), or engage with embedded content, those services may send us anonymized user info (according to their own privacy policies).
Automated Decision-Making & Profiling
We don’t use automated decision-making, AI profiling, or algorithmic filtering on individual users.
Industry Regulatory Disclosure Requirements
As an independent artist, this site is not subject to specific industry regulations—but we still treat your data with the care it deserves.
Thanks for Trusting Us
This Privacy Policy is here to be honest, respectful, and clear—just like Adrienne's art.
If you have questions, reach out anytime.
