Affiliate Disclosure
I’ve found so many products that I love! Like any good friend, I’m happy to share which products I love so you can use them too! Please know that I would never recommend anything I haven’t already used and loved myself. Sometimes, I may make money because of my recommendations.
My posts may contain affiliate links. If you make a purchase through an affiliate link, I can receive a small commission of that sale at no additional charge or expense to you. This helps to pay for the costs associated with maintaining this blog. I may not mention every associated product, service, or business as an affiliate in every reference.
I am a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to amazon.com. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.

Website Visitors
Like most website operators, Blessed Crazy Texas Nest collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. Blessed Crazy Texas Nest’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how Blessed Crazy Texas Nest’s visitors use its website. From time to time, Blessed Crazy Texas Nest may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.
Blessed Crazy Texas Nest also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses for logged in users and for users leaving comments on our blogs. Blessed Crazy Texas Nest only discloses logged in user and commenter IP addresses under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information as described below, except that blog commenter IP addresses are visible and disclosed to the administrators of the blog where the comment was left.
Commenting
When you leave comments on Blessed Crazy Texas Nest, you have the option of providing your name, blog or website url, or other information. This information becomes a permanent part of the website when you provide it with a comment, and can be seen by other visitors to the site.
When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.
Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information
Certain visitors to Blessed Crazy Texas Nest’s websites choose to interact with Blessed Crazy Texas Nest in ways that require Blessed Crazy Texas Nest to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that Blessed Crazy Texas Nest gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who comment on our blog to provide a username and email address. Those who wish to receive Blessed Crazy Texas Nest updates via email, we collect their emails. In each case, Blessed Crazy Texas Nest collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with Blessed Crazy Texas Nest. Blessed Crazy Texas Nest does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.
Log Files
Like most standard websites, this website uses log files. These include: Internet Protocol addresses (IP addresses), browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, platform type, date/time stamp, and the number of clicks to analyze trends, administer the site, track user movement in the aggregate, and to gather broad demographic information for aggregate use.
This information is never provided to third parties, except as otherwise stated in this Privacy Policy, and is logged only for a temporary period of time. Other than the IP address, this information is not linked to anything that is personally identifiable. IP address information is linked to personal information and may be used in an effort to block a “banned” user from accessing the Site.
