Welcome to ThoughtTrailBlog.com. This site is owned and operated by Gurkaran, a software engineer who shares stories, personal insights, and reflections. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit this website.

1. Information Collection

We only collect minimal information from visitors:

• Email addresses when you subscribe to the blog or reach out through the contact form.
• Cookies to improve your experience on the site by tracking which posts are popular. You can always disable cookies in your browser if you prefer.

We don’t collect any personal details without your consent. And rest assured, we’re not in the business of selling, trading, or otherwise sharing your info with anyone.

2. Use of Information

Any information collected is used simply to:

• Respond to inquiries you send via the contact form.
• Send updates if you choose to subscribe to the blog.
• Improve website experience by seeing which topics interest readers most.

We don’t use your information for any marketing gimmicks or spam – just to share meaningful content with you.

3. AI Tools and Content

All written content on this blog is personally created by me, Gurkaran. While I do use AI tools like Grammarly for basic grammar checks and Canva for creating images, every word and idea here is mine. AI tools help with structure and readability, but the thoughts, stories, and experiences are purely my own. This content is authentic, and I’m here to keep it that way.

4. Third-Party Links

Sometimes, blog posts might link to other websites. These external sites have their own privacy policies, so we recommend reading them if you visit. ThoughtTrailBlog.com doesn’t have control over external content and isn’t responsible for their practices.

5. Data Security

I take reasonable measures to protect your information and keep it safe from unauthorized access or disclosure. While no site is 100% secure, I use standard practices to protect any data you provide.

6. Changes to This Policy

If the privacy policy is updated, changes will be posted here. I recommend checking back occasionally if you’re curious. Your continued use of ThoughtTrailBlog.com means you accept these terms.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Any questions about this policy? Feel free to reach out!
