Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 6, 2026
This policy explains what information Budvocate (“we”) collects when you use Budvocate, how we use it and the choices you have.
What we collect
Information you send us. If you email us, or send us a review or photographs, we receive your name, your email address and whatever you include.
Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our servers record basic technical information for each request, such as your IP address, browser type, the page requested and the time. We use it to run and secure the site.
Cookies. We use a small number of cookies, described in our Cookie Policy.
We don’t ask you to create an account to read the site, and we don’t ask for your date of birth. The age check only records that you confirmed you are 21 or older.
How we use it
- To run, secure and improve the site.
- To answer your messages.
- To review and publish material you send us for publication.
- To meet our legal obligations.
We don’t sell your personal information.
Who else receives it
Service providers. Companies that host and maintain the site process information on our behalf.
Google Fonts. The site loads its typefaces from Google, so your browser sends your IP address to Google when a page loads. Google’s privacy policy applies to that.
Links to other sites. Some pages link to sites we don’t control, including retailers and original sources. Their own policies apply once you leave Budvocate. Pages that embed a Budvocate strain card on another site are also covered by that site’s policy.
Legal reasons. We may disclose information when the law requires it or to protect our rights and the safety of others.
How long we keep it
We keep information only as long as we need it for the purposes above, or as the law requires. Cookie lifetimes are listed in the Cookie Policy.
Your choices and rights
You can change your cookie choice at any time using the Cookie settings link at the bottom of every page, and you can clear cookies in your browser.
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete your personal information, or to object to how it is used. To make a request, email budvocate@gmail.com. We won’t treat you differently for exercising these rights.
Age
Budvocate is for adults 21 and older. We don’t knowingly collect information from anyone under 21. If you believe someone under 21 has sent us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Changes
We may update this policy. The date at the top shows when it last changed.
