Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 23, 2026

This page explains what information this site collects when you request the free Backyard Apothecary growing guide, and how that information is used.

What we collect

When you submit the opt-in form, we collect the first name and email address you provide. We do not collect payment information on this site — there is nothing to buy here.

How we use it

• To send you the free growing guide and a short follow-up email series about growing and using the herbs covered in the guide.
• To send occasional emails that may include affiliate links to products we think are genuinely useful (see Affiliate Disclosure below).
• To remember which version of this page you signed up from (a hidden field noting "Clara" or "Jack"), purely to route you to the matching, consistent email series — this is not used for tracking beyond that.

We do not sell your information to third parties.

Email delivery

Your name and email address are stored and processed by our email service provider (Kit, formerly ConvertKit), which sends the guide and follow-up emails on our behalf. Kit's own privacy policy governs how they handle data on their platform.

Affiliate disclosure

This site and the emails that follow are supported by affiliate links. If you make a purchase through one of those links, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. We only recommend products we believe offer genuine value.

Medical disclaimer

This site is about gardening and time-honored home traditions with herbs — not medical advice. Nothing on this site diagnoses, treats, cures, or prevents any disease. Herbs can interact with medications and aren't right for everyone; please talk with your doctor or pharmacist before using any herb, especially if you're pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or managing a health condition.

Your choices

• Every email includes an unsubscribe link — you can opt out at any time.
• To request that we delete your stored name and email address, contact us at the address below.
