Privacy Policy - EasyAmis

Last updated: May 26, 2026

Welcome to EasyAmis.com (the “Site”). I take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains what information I collect, how I use it, and your rights regarding that information.

I am a small, one‑person blog. I do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. Ever.

1. Who I Am

EasyAmis is a blog that shares free amigurumi crochet patterns, guides for beginners, and crochet-related content.

Website: https://easyamis.com
Email contact: admin@easyamis.com
Owner: Yuliya (a solo crocheter who just wants to help you make cute things)

2. What Information I Collect & Why

A. Information You Voluntarily Provide

Email Communication
When you email me at admin@easyamis.com, I receive your email address and any information you include in your message. I use this only to respond to your inquiry, pattern submission, or DMCA notice.

I do not add you to any newsletter unless you explicitly ask to be added (and I currently do not run a newsletter).

Pattern Submissions
If you send me a free pattern for possible publication on EasyAmis, I may keep your name, email, and pattern details for communication and credit purposes. I will never share your contact information publicly without your permission.

B. Automatically Collected Information

Like most websites, EasyAmis may collect basic technical data through log files and cookies (if enabled in the future). This may include:

IP address (anonymized where possible)
Browser type and version
Operating system
Referring website
Pages visited and time spent on the Site
Date and time of visit

This information helps me understand how people use EasyAmis — what patterns are popular, whether pages load correctly, and how to improve the Site.

C. Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. EasyAmis may use:

Essential cookies – to make the Site work (e.g., remembering your PDF download preferences)
Analytics cookies – if I add Google Analytics or similar later, to count visitors and see which patterns are most loved

You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time. However, some parts of the Site may not function properly.

🍪 I do not currently use tracking cookies for advertising or third‑party marketing.

3. Third‑Party Services

EasyAmis uses the following third‑party services. Each has its own privacy policy:

Service	Purpose	Privacy Policy Link
Pinterest	Sharing patterns and inspiration	Pinterest Privacy Policy
Instagram	Social media connection	Instagram Privacy Policy
YouTube	Video tutorials (Guides section)	YouTube Privacy Policy
TikTok	Short crochet videos	TikTok Privacy Policy

These platforms may collect data according to their own policies. I do not control them.

Future services: If I later add Google Analytics, email newsletters, or comment functionality, this Privacy Policy will be updated.

4. How I Protect Your Information

I do my best to keep your information safe:

Email communications are stored in a standard email service (with password protection)
I do not store sensitive financial information (I don’t process payments)
I regularly update security practices as a solo blogger

That said, no internet transmission is 100% secure. By using this Site, you acknowledge this risk.

5. Children’s Privacy

EasyAmis is intended for general audiences (adults and older teens who crochet). I do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided me with personal information, please contact me, and I will delete it promptly.

6. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live (including California under the CCPA and the EU/UK under GDPR), you may have the right to:

Access – Request a copy of personal data I hold about you
Correction – Ask me to fix inaccurate information
Deletion – Request that I delete your personal data
Opt‑out – Refuse the collection of certain data (e.g., cookies)

To exercise any of these rights, please email me at:

📧 admin@easyamis.com
Subject line: Privacy Request

I will respond within 30 days. I may ask for verification of your identity before processing your request.

7. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) setting. EasyAmis does not currently respond to DNT signals because there is no universally accepted standard. However, I do not engage in cross‑site behavioral tracking for advertising.

8. Links to Other Websites

EasyAmis contains links to external websites (Ravelry, individual crochet blogs, Instagram, etc.). This Privacy Policy applies only to EasyAmis. I am not responsible for the privacy practices of other sites. Please read their privacy policies.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

I may update this Privacy Policy occasionally. The “Last updated” date at the top will change. If I make significant changes, I will post a notice on the Site (e.g., a banner or blog post).

Continued use of EasyAmis after changes means you accept the updated policy.
