I put this little page together for a couple of reasons:
• So my readers know exactly what’s going on.
• The FTC decided in 2009 to require this little spiel.
• In 2018, the EU decided they had the right to tell bloggers around the world what information they could use and collect.
Privacy Statement
Last updated: 6/1/2020
I, Jennifer Landsberger, run the website The Housewife Modern (thehousewifemodern.com). This page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information we receive from users of the site. I use your personal information only for providing and improving the site. By using the site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
If you sign-up for the e-mail newsletter, I will have your name e-mail address on file. I do not and will not ever sell your e-mail address or give it to outside providers. At any point, you can unsubscribe. If you request, I can also delete your e-mail address and record of what e-mails have been sent to you from my records. Unless you specifically sign up for the newsletter or provide your e-mail in a comment, I will not have access to that information.
If you purchase a product through my Shopify store, I do NOT have access to your credit card information. Only Shopify’s secure server has that information.
I use Google Analytics and affiliate links on this site. Their privacy policies apply to any links you interact. I have no control over the cookies and tracking information of Google or third-parties and cannot modify them.
This site is not intended for those under the age of 13. If any information is collected about them and I become aware of it, it will be deleted immediately.
Affiliate Links/Product Recommendations
I only ever review or recommend products I have actually used or have been vouched for by someone I really trust. The site will include affiliate links to products I recommend. I will receive a small commission for purchases at NO EXTRA COST TO YOU.
I will occasionally have product reviews. I will disclose if I received the product for free. And I will give an HONEST review. If I hated the product, I’ll let you know.
The reason for affiliate links and product reviews is because running this website costs money (yeah, I know, no surprise). And a lot of time…in fact it is my full-time job. So, should you choose to purchase a product via affiliate link…well, I would really appreciate it.

The Website works with Mediavine to manage third-party interest-based advertising appearing on the Website. Mediavine serves content and advertisements when you visit the Website, which may use first and third-party cookies. A cookie is a small text file which is sent to your computer or mobile device (referred to in this policy as a “device”) by the web server so that a website can remember some information about your browsing activity on the Website.
First party cookies are created by the website that you are visiting. A third-party cookie is frequently used in behavioral advertising and analytics and is created by a domain other than the website you are visiting. Third-party cookies, tags, pixels, beacons and other similar technologies (collectively, “Tags”) may be placed on the Website to monitor interaction with advertising content and to target and optimize advertising. Each internet browser has functionality so that you can block both first and third-party cookies and clear your browser’s cache. The “help” feature of the menu bar on most browsers will tell you how to stop accepting new cookies, how to receive notification of new cookies, how to disable existing cookies and how to clear your browser’s cache. For more information about cookies and how to disable them, you can consult the information at All About Cookies.
Without cookies you may not be able to take full advantage of the Website content and features. Please note that rejecting cookies does not mean that you will no longer see ads when you visit our Site. In the event you opt-out, you will still see non-personalized advertisements on the Website.
The Website collects the following data using a cookie when serving personalized ads:
