How we protect your data
Salt Sugar Spice does not store or request any sensitive financial or government type of data. If you’re ever asked for such information from a source that seemingly looks like us, you should immediately question the authenticity of the communication and report the incident to authorities if possible.
Any information we do store, typically authenticated/verified names and email addresses is store behind a password protected firewall and encrypted in secure enterprise IT fashion.
Telling you more than that wouldn’t be too smart on our part 😉
What data breach procedures we have in place
Even though we are a small blog… we know our stuff. That means, yes – everything is hackable, but we are far more secure than your average small blog. In fact, we know every time someone tries to hack in, where they were coming from, most of the time what tools they were using and specifically when they got locked out. We’re even able to triangulate coordinated attempts across geographic areas and map them back to a particular group(s) effort. We also use automated submission software that aggregates and reports malicious behavior across many sites. So the hackers we see trying to break in – yes, you’re being tracked too and we will pursue legal action when lines are crossed.
What third parties we receive data from
Salt Sugar Spice may receive data from any/all social media outlets, industry and collaboration partners, public media streams, news outlets, etc. We sometimes share other’s content and/or use it as inspiration. We NEVER take credit for other’s work. If there is content from other sources on our website or any of our social media channels we will always give credit or, at the very least if an author or creator is unknown, never take credit for the work.
What automated decision making and/or profiling we do with user data
Salt Sugar Spice uses modern day tools to tailor content to our viewers. We use all the available apps and plug-ins to determine who we’re interacting with, where viewers came from & where they go after leaving SSS, when are the best times of interactions, how people are interacting with or viewing content, etc.
