Privacy Policy

Alo Cisneros is an editorial guide for the modern man, publishing curated style, wellness, grooming, and home content at alocisneros.com. This privacy policy describes the personal information we collect when you visit our site, sign up for our newsletter, or interact with our content on third-party platforms such as Pinterest, and how we use that information.

We take privacy seriously. We collect the minimum information needed to run the editorial. We do not sell your personal data.

Information we collect

Information you provide directly. When you sign up for our newsletter, you provide your email address and optionally your first name. When you contact us, you provide your email address and the contents of your message.

Information collected automatically. When you visit alocisneros.com, our hosting platform automatically logs basic technical data including your IP address, browser type, device type, referring URL, pages visited, and time of visit. We use this data in aggregate form to understand which articles resonate and to improve the site. We do not attempt to identify individual visitors from this technical data.

Cookies. We use cookies for two purposes: to maintain your session on the site and to measure aggregate site traffic. You can disable cookies in your browser settings; the site will still function but our traffic measurement may be less accurate.

How we use your information

We use the information we collect to send you the editorial newsletter you signed up for, to respond to messages you send us, to maintain and improve the site, and to comply with legal obligations.

We do not use your information for behavioral advertising. We do not run retargeting pixels. We do not share your email address with third parties for marketing purposes.

Third-party services

To run the editorial we use a small set of third-party services that may receive limited information about you.

Hosting and infrastructure. Our site is hosted on Vercel, which automatically logs basic technical data for the site to function and be measured. Their privacy policy applies to data they handle on our behalf.

Pinterest. Pinterest displays our pins on its platform. When you interact with our pins on Pinterest, Pinterest's own privacy policy governs that interaction. We use the Pinterest API to publish and manage our own pins; that integration does not collect data about you.

Amazon Associates. Amazon Associates is the affiliate program we use for product recommendations. When you click an Amazon link from our site, Amazon may set cookies to attribute the referral. Amazon's privacy policy governs that interaction.

Email service provider. When we move newsletter delivery to a dedicated provider such as ConvertKit or Mailchimp, that provider will store your email address solely to send you the editorial. We will update this policy at that time.

We do not use Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any third-party advertising trackers at this time.

Affiliate disclosure

Some links on alocisneros.com are affiliate links. If you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may receive a small commission at no additional cost to you. Affiliate links never affect our editorial recommendations. We only feature products we believe are genuinely worth your attention. This disclosure is consistent with the FTC guidelines on endorsements.

Your rights

You have the right to access the personal information we hold about you, the right to request that we correct or delete it, and the right to unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time. Every newsletter contains an unsubscribe link. To exercise any of these rights, email us at alo@alocisneros.com and we will respond within 30 days.

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, California, or another jurisdiction with applicable privacy law, you may have additional rights under that law. Email us at alo@alocisneros.com and we will respond.

Children

Alo Cisneros is intended for adult readers, primarily men aged 26 to 32. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, email alo@alocisneros.com and we will delete it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time as our editorial grows and as new services are introduced. The effective date at the top of this page reflects the most recent update. Material changes will be announced in the newsletter.
