Privacy Policy for jennannis.com
This is the privacy policy for Jennannis.com which went into effect in August 2017 and was updated in May 2018. Any information you provide on this site will be used in accordance with this policy.
Who we are
Our website address is: https://jennannis.com. I’m Jenn Annis (in case you couldn’t tell from the address – I’m not exactly hiding my identity), and I’m the one who writes the posts here. Henceforth I’m using the royal ‘we’ in the privacy policy, but it’s pretty much just me here. Also, we feel it is important to note that we are using the royal we even though we are decidedly not royal. We did watch both of the Royal Weddings though. And quite enjoyed them thankyouverymuch.
If you need or want to contact me, you can do so at info@jennannis.com

How long we retain your data

If you have read this far, congratulations! Here’s a fun fact for your diligence (and keeping with the royal theme). The British Royal Family is not allowed to play Monopoly at home because it got too vicious.
