This policy explains what information Ventless Fireplace Review collects when you visit
ventlessfireplacereview.com and how we handle it. It is written in plain language rather
than legal language. It is a starting point, not a finished legal document: the site owner
should check that every line matches how the site is actually run, and have it reviewed by a
qualified professional where the law requires that, before treating it as final.
Who we are
Ventless Fireplace Review covers vent-free and ventless fireplaces: how they work, what the
rules and restrictions are where you live, what the safety trade-offs are, and when the
honest answer is that one is not appropriate for your room. We do not publish installation
or gas-line instructions, because that is licensed work.
What we collect
- Information you send us. If you contact us through the Contact page, by email or by
phone, we keep what you send and the details needed to reply. - Basic technical information. Our web host records standard details each time a page
is served: the browser and device you used, a general idea of where the request came
from, and which page you viewed. This is ordinary server activity. - Comments. If commenting is turned on and you leave a comment, we keep what you wrote
along with the name and email address you submit with it.
Please do not send us photographs of a gas connection or details of an installation in the
expectation of an assessment. We cannot inspect an appliance remotely, and anything you send
sits in an ordinary inbox.
Analytics and cookies
Cookies are small files a website can store in your browser. This site may set them for
basic functions such as remembering a form entry. You can clear or block cookies through
your browser settings.
We are not naming an analytics provider here, because we cannot confirm which one is
installed. If the owner adds an analytics tool, an email signup form or an advertising
network, this page should be updated to name it before that tool goes live.
Affiliate links
This site publishes a separate Affiliate Disclosure page, and that page is the place to
read how any commercial link here works. In short, some pages may carry affiliate links,
the price you pay is not affected, and a commission never buys a recommendation or a safety
verdict. The Affiliate Disclosure page carries the full explanation and takes precedence
over this summary.
An affiliate link tells a retailer you arrived from this site. That is the only information
that reaches them from us. We do not receive your name, your address or your payment details
from any purchase you make.
How we use information
- To answer your messages.
- To keep the site running, secure and accurate.
- To understand which questions about these appliances readers actually arrive with.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with anyone beyond the
service providers described below.
Third-party services
The site runs on hosted web infrastructure, and messages you send us pass through an email
provider. These companies handle data on our behalf under their own privacy practices. The
site owner should list the specific providers here and keep that list current.
Your choices
Depending on where you live, you may be able to ask what personal information we hold about
you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. Contact us and we will do what we
reasonably can.
Keeping and protecting information
We keep messages and comments only as long as they are useful for the purpose they were sent
for, and we take reasonable steps to protect them. No website can guarantee perfect
security, so we will not claim to.
Children
This site is written for a general adult audience and is not directed at children.
Changes to this policy
We update this policy when the site changes. The date at the top shows when it was last
reviewed.
Contact
Questions about privacy can be sent through our Contact page, which lists the email address
and phone number we publish.
