Notices & Policies

Ads

We are registered affiliates through Awin, ShareASale, Amazon, and Sun Oven, with banner ads visible on the blog and specific links in posts as fully disclosed. If you make a purchase using the links, Brunette Gardens may earn a commission, with no extra cost to you. We only link to products we’ve purchased ourselves and personally vetted, and we favor quality items that match our values: good craftsmanship; small, independent businesses; environmental stewardship; and low-impact living. Our writing is wholly independent, our views our own.

Cookie Policy

Our advertisers might employ cookies to track purchases as part of our affiliate agreement with them. A cookie does not personally identify you; rather, it's a way for advertisers to verify that you came to their site via the link here at Brunette Gardens.  

Copyright

Brunette Gardens LLC owns all content published on this Substack blog and its email subscription list, exclusively.

Guest Authors

We sometimes publish the work of guest authors. While most of these people are writers we know, their posts commissioned by us, we have on occasion accepted outside submissions. The best way to begin the process is to first subscribe to Brunette Gardens to learn about our obsessions and flag our attention with your astute comments on our posts.

Medical Disclaimer

Please do not take the information presented by Brunette Gardens as a cue to self-diagnose and self-treat. We arrive at our diagnoses through testing and determination by medical doctors, some with specialties in areas like gastroenterology, allergies, and asthma. It’s best to consult your physician with any concerns you might have. That said, be tenacious if you aren’t seeing improvement. Medical science is quickly evolving, with new discoveries and answers turning over established ideas all the time. 

Privacy Policy

We’re very concerned about privacy and respect yours as you visit Brunette Gardens. In order to post comments, we require you to become a paid subscriber. This helps us filter spam and promote healthy discussion among those with a vested interest in the topic at hand.

We are not responsible for the policies and practices of any sites that share our content without our permission.

Sharing Our Content

It’s great if you see something here on Brunette Gardens and want to share it on your own social media, but we ask you to observe the following:

  • Please link back to our original post using the permalink.

  • If you repost on your own blog or website, you must use only the first 200 words of our article and then prominently link to our original post. Send us a link to your post, and we’ll do our best to share it around as well!

  • You cannot republish any of our photos or other images unless a) we give you permission or b) what you’re using from our site is something we sourced through open licensing.

  • Violations of any of the above will be treated as a work-for-hire without permission, and we will invoice you for the content 

Social Media

We are very concerned about data collection, censorship, and privacy, as well as the negative cultural aspects of social media, though we’re recently giving Twitter a try. We encourage you to keep up-to-date by subscribing to Brunette Gardens.
