this is the boring-but-important part. in human language.


privacy

this is a personal site and notebook, not a data-harvesting operation, but some information still moves around.

if you email me, i see your email address and whatever you chose to send. i use it to reply and keep our conversation.

server logs and basic analytics may collect anonymous information like pages viewed, timestamps, and general location (country/region). this helps me understand what’s being read, not who you are.

if i ever add a newsletter or contact form, i’ll collect whatever you enter there (like your email) for the obvious purpose of sending things you explicitly signed up for.

i don’t sell or rent your personal information. if a third‑party tool is used (for example: analytics or embedded content), it may place its own cookies or track usage according to its own policies.

if you want to know what information i have about you (which is usually “emails you sent me”), you can email me at hello@candacewoodbury.com.


terms of use

by reading or using this site, you agree to a few basic ground rules.

everything here is personal experience, opinion, or observation. it is not medical, legal, financial, or professional advice.

outdoor activities, gear use, and travel all carry risk. you are responsible for your own decisions and safety. double‑check conditions, regulations, and your own limits before you follow anything mentioned here.

all writing, photos, and media on this site are mine unless otherwise noted. please don’t copy, republish, or use them without asking first. linking to posts is always fine.

this site may change, move, or disappear without notice. links can break. nothing here is guaranteed to be permanent or error‑free.

if you misuse the site (spam, scraping, harassment, or anything that makes this less usable for others), i reserve the right to block access or remove comments/messages where applicable.


some pages and posts include links to products, services, or apps. some of those links may be affiliate links.

if you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, i may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.

i only link to things i actually use, have used, or genuinely believe are useful. i don’t accept payment in exchange for positive reviews.

affiliate links are identified in context within posts and may include a short disclosure note near the top.

if this ever changes — sponsored posts, gifted gear, etc. — it will be clearly labeled so you can decide how much weight to give it.
