Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 5, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Keto Blogs handles information connected with Ketostruggle.top. We are a small US-based personal blog project, not a large company, clinic, or medical service. This privacy policy is written to describe the site honestly while keeping the language practical.

Who We Are

Our website address is https://ketostruggle.top/. The site is operated by Keto Blogs and written in the voice of KetoStruggler.

Privacy contact: privacy@ketostruggle.top

General contact: hello@ketostruggle.top

What We Collect And Why

We collect only the information needed to run the blog, protect it, understand how people use it, send requested communications, manage comments/accounts, improve content, and support monetization such as ads, affiliate links, and sponsored content.

Depending on how you use the site, this may include:

  • Account information, such as username, email address, profile details, and login/session data.
  • Comment information, such as comment text, name or display name, email address, IP address, browser user agent, moderation status, and related metadata.
  • Email and contact information if you email us or subscribe to a feature we offer.
  • Web Push subscription data if you choose to allow browser notifications.
  • Technical information, such as IP address, browser, device, pages requested, referrer, timestamps, and security logs.
  • Consent records and preference information created by our cookie and consent tools.
  • Analytics and advertising data collected through Google services if those features are enabled and allowed by your choices where consent applies.
  • Affiliate and ad interaction data handled by affiliate networks, ad networks, or other third-party providers.

We do not ask you to send sensitive medical information. Please do not send passwords, private medical records, lab results, medication details, or other sensitive information through comments or email.

Comments

When visitors leave comments, WordPress collects the data shown in the comment form, plus the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with moderation, abuse prevention, and spam detection.

Comments on posts require a logged-in WordPress account and are held for moderation. Public registration is currently disabled, so accounts are invited or manually created. Pages are closed to comments. Pingbacks and trackbacks are disabled.

We currently disable avatars to reduce third-party avatar calls. If avatar or profile-picture features are enabled later, additional privacy disclosure may be needed.

Media

If you upload images or other media to the website through an account, avoid uploading files with embedded location data, such as EXIF GPS data. Visitors may be able to download and extract location or metadata from public media files.

Email, Brevo, And Web Push

We use Brevo for transactional email and Web Push. We may also use Brevo features such as contact lists, email campaigns, subscription management, campaign analytics, tracking, and marketing automation if those features are enabled later.

Web Push is powered through Brevo and related WonderPush infrastructure. If you allow browser notifications, your browser, device, Brevo, and WonderPush may process notification subscription records, technical identifiers, delivery events, interaction events, campaign data, and related metadata. Web Push is treated as an optional marketing feature on this site, not as something required to read the blog.

Brevo may process information such as email address, message subject, sender, recipient, delivery events, open/click events if tracking is enabled, timestamps, message identifiers, campaign data, Web Push subscription information, and related technical metadata. Brevo’s privacy information is available at https://www.brevo.com/legal/privacypolicy/.

Emails sent to hello@ketostruggle.top, admin@ketostruggle.top, or privacy@ketostruggle.top may be stored in the mailbox or email-forwarding service used by the operator. We use those messages to respond, manage the site, review corrections, handle privacy requests, and evaluate business or affiliate opportunities.

Cookies, Consent, And FAZ Cookie Manager

WordPress uses cookies for login sessions, authentication, comment/account features, editor/admin preferences, and basic site functionality. If you log in, WordPress sets cookies to keep you authenticated and remember screen preferences. If you edit or publish content, WordPress may store editor-related cookies.

We use FAZ Cookie Manager to present cookie choices, manage optional script loading, send Google Consent Mode signals, keep local consent logs, and help document cookies and similar technologies. FAZ Cookie Manager stores consent preferences so the site can remember your choices. It may also keep local consent records for audit purposes, currently configured with a 24-month retention period.

FAZ Cookie Manager uses geolocation settings to decide when to show consent controls for regions such as the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Canada, and the United States. This may involve IP-derived country or region information through the geolocation tools configured for the site. Geolocation is used for consent presentation, not to identify you by name.

Necessary cookies are required for the site to function and are always active. Optional categories such as functional, analytics, performance, marketing, and uncategorized technologies are intended to require consent where the banner applies. Details are in our Cookie Policy and in the cookie preference center.

Google Services, Analytics, Ads, And Search

We use or plan to use Google services through Google Site Kit and related Google tools. This may include Google Search Console, Google Analytics, Google AdSense, Google Ads, PageSpeed Insights, Google Tag Manager, Reader Revenue Manager, Sign in with Google, Google tags, consent prompts, and related reporting or optimization features.

Google services may collect or receive information such as page URLs, device and browser data, IP-derived location, cookie identifiers, ad identifiers, interaction data, referral data, search and advertising performance data, and consent signals. Google explains data use at https://policies.google.com/privacy and https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

If Google Analytics, Google Ads, AdSense, remarketing, personalized ads, non-personalized ads, conversion measurement, or similar features are enabled, those services may use cookies or similar technologies to measure traffic, select ads, personalize ads where allowed, prevent fraud, limit ad frequency, model conversions, and report performance.

For visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland, Google may require specific disclosures and legally valid consent for cookies/local storage and personalized advertising. We use a WordPress consent tool and Google Consent Mode settings to communicate consent choices to Google tags where supported. Some Google-related cookie definitions may appear in our cookie inventory before every related Google feature is actively used, because we keep the site prepared for future Google tools and ad features.

Affiliate Links, Sponsored Content, And Advertising

We may earn money from affiliate links, ads, sponsorships, free products, paid placements, or other commercial relationships. These relationships may involve third-party providers such as Amazon Associates, Google AdSense, other affiliate networks, merchants, or sponsors.

Affiliate networks and ad providers may collect information when you click a link, view an ad, or make a purchase after clicking from our site. This may include cookies, referral identifiers, transaction attribution, IP address, device/browser data, and purchase or conversion information. We disclose affiliate and sponsored relationships where they appear. More detail is in our Affiliate Disclosure.

Embedded Content And Social Media

Articles may include embedded content such as videos, images, posts, social feeds, or other media from third-party websites, including YouTube, Instagram, Google, Amazon, or other services. Embedded content behaves as if you visited the third-party website directly. Those providers may collect data, use cookies, track your interaction, or connect activity to your account with them if you are logged in.

Server Logs, Security, And Backups

Our host keeps technical logs and backup records to operate, secure, troubleshoot, and restore the site. Logs may include IP addresses, timestamps, requested URLs, user agents, errors, blocked requests, and security events. Backups may contain copies of site files, database records, comments, accounts, and configuration data.

Backups are retained according to operational, legal, and security needs. Because backups are designed for disaster recovery, information deleted from the live site may remain in backup copies for a limited time until those backups rotate out or are replaced.

Who We Share Data With

We do not sell your personal information for direct cash payment. We may share or make information available to service providers and platforms needed to operate the site, including:

  • WordPress and plugin systems used to run the site.
  • FAZ Cookie Manager for local consent records, cookie controls, and consent preference handling.
  • Brevo and WonderPush for email, Web Push, contact, subscription, and campaign features.
  • Google services for analytics, search, ads, consent, performance, and reporting.
  • Affiliate networks, ad networks, merchants, and sponsors when links, ads, or sponsored content are used.
  • Email forwarding or mailbox providers used to receive and answer messages.
  • Hosting, backup, security, and operational tools used by the site operator.
  • Legal, safety, or abuse-response recipients if needed to comply with law, protect rights, respond to security issues, or prevent harm.

How Long We Retain Data

We retain information for as long as needed for the reason it was collected, including site operation, security, legal, tax, accounting, backup, moderation, abuse prevention, and recordkeeping needs.

Comments and their metadata may be retained indefinitely so discussion history and moderation context remain intact. Account information is retained while the account exists and for a reasonable period afterward if needed for security, moderation, or legal reasons. Consent logs are currently configured for 24 months. Email messages may be retained as long as needed to respond, keep business records, handle privacy requests, or protect the site.

Your Choices And Rights

You may contact privacy@ketostruggle.top to ask about information connected with your account, comments, email messages, or other direct interactions with the site. We may need to verify your identity before acting on a request.

You can manage cookie choices through the cookie banner or revisit-consent control when it is shown. You can also manage browser notification permission through your browser or device settings. Rejecting optional cookies or push permissions may limit analytics, ads, embedded content, notification, or personalization features, but the core blog should remain readable.

Depending on your location and the laws that apply, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, object to, restrict, opt out of certain sale/share or targeted advertising uses, or receive a copy of certain personal information. We will try to respond reasonably and lawfully. Some information may be retained when needed for security, backups, legal obligations, abuse prevention, or legitimate site operation.

California privacy laws apply only to certain covered businesses. Keto Blogs is currently a small personal blog project, but you may still contact us with privacy questions or opt-out concerns. If a future advertising or analytics setup creates additional legal obligations, this policy and the site controls should be updated before or alongside that change.

Where Data Is Sent

We are based in the United States. Service providers such as Google, Brevo, WonderPush, email providers, affiliate networks, ad networks, and hosting or backup services may process information in the United States or other countries. Those countries may have different data-protection laws than your location.

Children And Minors

This site is a family-safe food and lifestyle blog, but it is not directed to children. Keto and weight-loss content is intended for older teens and adults who can evaluate diet information responsibly. If you are under 16, use this site with a parent or guardian and do not create an account or send personal information without permission.

How We Protect Data

We use practical security measures for this host, including HTTPS, restricted administrative access, account controls, server-side backups, malware checks, local service isolation, Redis/MariaDB access controls, and operational validation. No website can guarantee perfect security.

Data Breach Procedures

If we discover a security incident that affects personal information, we will investigate, secure the system, restore from trusted backups if needed, and notify affected users or authorities when legally required.

Automated Decision-Making And Profiling

We do not make loan, employment, medical, insurance, housing, or similarly significant decisions about visitors. Google, ad networks, affiliate networks, Brevo, WonderPush, or other providers may use automated systems for analytics, advertising, spam prevention, abuse prevention, personalization, deliverability, or campaign measurement according to their own policies.

Changes To This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when the site, plugins, providers, legal requirements, or monetization setup changes. The updated date at the top shows when this page was last revised.
