Privacy
Effective date: November 11, 2026.
Wallflower is a one-person business in Boulder, Colorado. This site shares picks of bike storage and earns a commission through paid links. We don't sell anything ourselves. This page explains what information is involved, who handles it, and your choices.
Paid links
Links marked "Paid link" go to Amazon. If you buy through one, Wallflower earns a commission at no extra cost to you. As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases.
When you click a paid link, you leave this site. Amazon records that the visit came from us (using a tracking ID in the link and its own cookies) so it can credit the commission. Amazon's own privacy notice covers what it collects; we only see totals such as how many clicks and orders a tracking ID got, never who you are or what else you bought.
What this site collects
- Nothing you type, unless you sign up. The filters on the picks page run in your browser and send nothing.
- Which post sent you. Some links to this site end in a tag such as ?src=instagram. It tells us which posts work. It isn't linked to you.
- Visit counts. We use GoatCounter, which sets no cookies and stores no personal data. It counts page visits, where they came from (including the ?src= tag), and clicks on "See it on Amazon" and on the sign-up button. We only see totals.
- Your email, only if you sign up. If you join the email list, we keep your email address, when you joined and confirmed, and which post sent you (from the ?src= tag). Our email tool records whether emails are opened or clicked. We use it only to send what you signed up for. You confirm by email before anything is sent (double opt-in).
- If you email us: your address and what you write.
Who else handles it
We don't sell your personal information and don't share it for advertising. These services are involved:
- GitHub hosts this site and Google Fonts serves its fonts. They receive your IP address and browser details when a page loads.
- Amazon handles everything after you click a paid link, as described above.
- MailerLite runs our email list, if you join. The form sends your details straight to MailerLite; no MailerLite script runs on our pages. Its servers may be in the European Union. Our emails link back to this site, not to Amazon.
- GoatCounter counts visits as described above. Its script loads from gc.zgo.at and receives your IP address and browser details, which it does not store.
- Google (Gmail) holds our business email.
- Anthropic: we use an AI assistant (Claude) to help run the business. It may read totals and messages you send us.
How long we keep it
Email addresses: until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete them. After you unsubscribe we keep only a note of the address so we don't email it again. Messages: as long as needed to answer them.
Your choices
- Unsubscribe with the link in any email.
- Ask for a copy, a correction or deletion by emailing wallflower.bikes@gmail.com. We aim to reply within 10 business days.
- Cookies: this site and its visit counter set no cookies. You can block or clear Amazon's cookies in your browser; a purchase then may not credit us, which costs you nothing.
- Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control: we don't track you across other sites, so these signals change nothing here.
Children
This site isn't meant for children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their information. If a child has signed up, email us and we'll delete it.
Changes
If this page changes, the effective date above changes too. If a change affects how your email address is used, we'll tell subscribers by email before it applies.
