Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 21, 2026

This policy explains what information Garden Clock (gardenclock.com) collects when you visit, how it is used, and the choices you have. We keep it simple because we collect very little.

What we collect

We do not ask you to create an account, and the frost-date lookup does not require any personal details. Like most websites, our hosting server automatically records technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, the pages you visit and the date and time of your visit. We use this for security, troubleshooting and understanding which pages are useful.

The frost-date lookup

When you type a town into the lookup, the text you enter is sent to our server so it can return matching places and dates. Please do not type personal information into the search box.

Cookies

Cookies are small files stored in your browser. Garden Clock and the services it relies on may use cookies for basic site operation, performance and advertising, as described below. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, although some features may not work as well if you do.

Advertising

If Google AdSense or Google Ad Manager advertising is enabled, third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this website or other websites. Google’s advertising cookies enable Google and its partners to select ads based on visits to this and other sites. Advertising services may process IP addresses, device or browser identifiers, ad interactions, and similar technical information to deliver and measure ads, prevent fraud, and personalize ads where permitted. Learn more at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services. Manage Google ad preferences at My Ad Center, or visit YourAdChoices for participating third-party vendors’ opt-out tools. These choices do not remove every ad and may apply only to a particular browser or device. Other vendors and purposes, when applicable, should be identified in the site’s advertising or consent disclosures.

Comments and messages

If comments are enabled and you leave one, we store the name, email address, website and message you submit, along with your IP address and browser details, which may be checked for spam. If you contact us, we use your message and email address only to reply.

Sharing your information

We do not sell your personal information. We share data only with service providers that help run the site (such as hosting and advertising providers), when required by law, or to protect the site and its visitors.

How long we keep data

Server logs are kept for a limited period for security and troubleshooting. Comments and messages are kept until they are no longer needed or you ask us to delete them.

Your choices and rights

You can ask what personal information we hold about you, ask us to correct or delete it, or opt out of personalized advertising. Depending on where you live, such as California or the European Economic Area, you may have additional legal rights. Contact us and we will respond as required by applicable law.

Children

Garden Clock is a general-audience site and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it was last changed.

External resources and privacy controls

The site uses Google Fonts. Loading those resources sends a request from your browser to Google, which can include your IP address and technical connection information. Read Google’s Privacy Policy for its handling of that information.

Where a consent or privacy-choice message is displayed, use its controls to manage the purposes and providers it offers. This Privacy Policy is information, not a consent control, and does not itself record or withdraw consent. For privacy questions or requests, email sssajibsaha@gmail.com. We may need information sufficient to verify and respond to your request; please avoid sending unnecessary sensitive information.
