Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2026

Slate & Sage Home ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit slateandsagehome.com, how we use it, and the rights you have over your data. By using our site, you agree to the practices described below.

Please note that Slate & Sage Home is an affiliate website. We publish home décor, furnishing, and lifestyle content and may earn a commission when you click through to third-party retailers and make a purchase. We do not sell products directly.

Information We Collect

We collect only the information needed to operate our site, understand how visitors use it, and support our affiliate relationships. This falls into the following categories.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to make our site work and to improve your experience. You can control non-essential cookies through your browser settings or our cookie consent banner. The cookies we use fall into three groups:

Essential cookies — These are required for the website to function properly, such as remembering your cookie preferences and keeping the site secure. They cannot be switched off in our systems and do not require your consent.
Analytics cookies — With your consent, we use analytics cookies (for example, through privacy-conscious web analytics tools) to understand which pages are visited, how long visitors stay, and how they navigate the site. This data is aggregated and helps us improve our content.
Affiliate cookies — When you click a link to a partner retailer, that retailer or an affiliate network may place a cookie on your device to track that the referral came from us. This allows us to be credited for any resulting purchase. These cookies do not give us access to your payment details or purchase specifics.

Usage Data

We automatically collect information about how you interact with our site, such as the pages you view, the links you click, the date and time of your visit, and the website that referred you to us. This usage data helps us measure the performance of our content and improve the visitor experience.

Device Information

When you visit our site, we may collect technical information about the device you use, including your browser type and version, operating system, screen size, general language settings, and a truncated or anonymized IP address used to estimate your approximate location. This information helps us ensure the site displays correctly and remains secure.

Newsletter Email Collection

Signing up for our newsletter is entirely optional. If you choose to subscribe, we collect your email address only after you provide clear, affirmative consent. We use it solely to send you home décor tips, product recommendations, and site updates.

You may withdraw your consent and unsubscribe at any time by clicking the "unsubscribe" link in any email we send, or by contacting us directly. When you unsubscribe, we stop sending you emails and remove your address from our active mailing list.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following limited purposes:

To operate, maintain, and secure our website
To understand how visitors use our site so we can improve our content and layout
To attribute affiliate referrals to our site so we can earn commissions
To send our newsletter to subscribers who have opted in
To comply with our legal obligations

We Do Not Sell Your Data

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for money or other valuable consideration. Your data is used only for the purposes described in this policy. We share limited information with trusted service providers—such as our analytics provider, email delivery service, and affiliate networks—only to the extent needed to provide their services, and they are required to protect your information.

Your Rights Under GDPR

If you are located in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you have rights over your personal data under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including:

The right to request correction of inaccurate data
The right to request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten")
The right to restrict or object to how we process your data
The right to data portability
The right to withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent
The right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority

We process your data on the lawful bases of consent (for analytics cookies and the newsletter) and legitimate interests (for essential site operation and affiliate attribution).

Your Rights Under CCPA

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) gives you the right to:

Know what categories of personal information we collect and how we use them
Request access to the specific personal information we have collected about you
Request deletion of your personal information, subject to legal exceptions
Opt out of the sale of your personal information—though, as stated above, we do not sell your personal information
Not be discriminated against for exercising any of your privacy rights

Data Retention

We keep your information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy. Newsletter email addresses are retained until you unsubscribe. Analytics and usage data are retained in aggregated or anonymized form in line with our analytics provider's settings.

Children's Privacy

Our site is intended for adults and is not directed at children under the age of 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us so we can remove it.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
