Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 2026
Marien Cartel Photography (https://mariencartelphotography.com) is a photography guides and reviews website. This policy explains what information is collected from visitors and how it is used.
Information we collect
We do not require visitors to create an account, and we do not collect personal information simply by browsing the site. The following data may be collected:
- Analytics: if analytics software (such as Google Analytics) is enabled, it collects anonymized usage data — pages visited, approximate location (country/city level), device and browser type, and how you arrived at the site. This data cannot be used to identify you personally.
- Cookies: analytics tools and embedded content (including links to Amazon) may set cookies in your browser. You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time; doing so will not affect your ability to read articles on this site.
- Contact form / email: if you email us directly (see Contact), we retain that correspondence only to respond to you.
Affiliate links
This site contains affiliate links, including Amazon Associates links. When you click an affiliate link, Amazon (or the relevant retailer) may set a cookie to track that the referral came from this site. We do not have access to what you purchase — only that a qualifying purchase may have occurred. See our affiliate disclosure for full details.
Third-party links
This site links to third-party sites (Amazon, Unsplash, social media profiles, and others). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those sites — once you leave Marien Cartel Photography, their own privacy policy applies.
Children's privacy
This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children.
Your choices
You can disable cookies, use browser tracking-protection features, or opt out of analytics tracking (e.g. via the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on) at any time.
Changes to this policy
If our data practices change (for example, if we add a newsletter or new analytics tool), we will update this page and revise the "last updated" date above.
