Privacy Policy

Last updated November 10, 2026

A Million Little Delights (amillionlittledelights.com) is a literary lifestyle magazine by Isis Bradford. This page explains what information the website collects when you read, subscribe, comment, join the chat, or become a Mail Club member, how that information is used, and the choices you have. If you have any questions, you can always write to hello@amillionlittledelights.com.

What we collect

  • Little Letters and subscriptions. When you subscribe, we keep your email address and, if you give it, your name, so that we can send you the letter.
  • Mail Club membership. When you become a paid member, we keep your name, email address, and membership details, and your mailing address if your membership includes anything sent by post. Payments are processed by Stripe, so your card number goes directly to Stripe and is never stored on this website.
  • Comments. When you leave a comment, we keep the name, email address, and comment you enter, along with your IP address and browser information to help catch spam. Your email address is never shown publicly.
  • The chat. When you join the chat, we keep your email address, the display name you choose, any profile photo you upload, and the messages and reactions you post. Your name, photo, messages, and reactions are visible to other readers, but your email address is not.
  • Contact and retreat inquiries. When you write to us through a form, we keep what you send so that we can reply.
  • Information collected automatically. Like most websites, this site receives basic technical information when you visit, such as your IP address, browser, device, the pages you view, and the site that sent you here. Some of this is collected through cookies, which are described below.

How we use it

We use your information to send the letters and notes you signed up for, to run your Mail Club membership, to show your comments and chat messages, to answer your messages, to keep the site secure and free of spam, to understand which stories readers enjoy, and to show advertising that helps support the magazine. We do not sell your personal information.

Cookies

Cookies are small files that a website saves in your browser. This site uses cookies to keep you signed in to the chat, to remember your name and email on the comment form if you ask it to, to measure visits through Google Analytics, and to show advertising. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, although some features, such as staying signed in to the chat, may stop working.

Advertising

This site may show ads served by Google and other advertising partners. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and other sites on the internet. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, and you can opt out of some other vendors’ personalized advertising at aboutads.info. To learn more, see how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Affiliate links and embedded content

Some links on this site, including many on the Favorite Things page, are affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission if you buy something, at no extra cost to you. The shops and affiliate services behind those links may use cookies to know that you came from here. Stories may also include embedded content, such as Instagram posts or videos, and those embeds behave as if you had visited the other website directly, so they may collect information about you under that website’s own privacy policy.

Who we share it with

We share information only with the services that help run the site, and only as much as they need to do their work. These include our web host, Stripe for payments, Google for analytics and advertising, the services that deliver our emails, and the network that helps our pages and images load quickly. We may also share information if the law requires it.

How long we keep it

We keep your subscription for as long as you stay subscribed, and your membership records for as long as needed to run your membership and keep proper business records. Comments and chat messages stay on the site until they are removed. If you would like something deleted sooner, just ask.

Your choices

  • You can unsubscribe from any letter using the link at the bottom of every email.
  • Mail Club members can update or cancel their membership at any time through the “Manage my membership” link in the footer.
  • You can change your chat name, photo, and email notifications in the chat settings.
  • You can ask to see, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you by writing to hello@amillionlittledelights.com. Depending on where you live, including California, the European Union, and the United Kingdom, you may have additional rights under local law, and we will honor those requests.

Children

This site is written for adults and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children, and if we learn that we have, we will delete it.

Security

The site uses a secure connection (https), and we take reasonable steps to protect your information, although no website can promise perfect security.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date at the top.
