Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 5, 2026

SmartDecorLab (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates https://www.smartdecorlab.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit or interact with the Site, how we use it, and the choices available to you. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

1. Who we are

SmartDecorLab is a home and interior décor content website. We publish buying guides, product recommendations, tutorials, and articles related to home styling, furniture, lighting, and décor accessories. Some of the links on our site are affiliate links, meaning we may earn a commission if you purchase them, at no extra cost to you. Full details on this are available on our Affiliate Disclosure page.

2. Information we collect

We collect information in a few different ways:

Information you give us directly

Your name and email address, if you subscribe to our newsletter or contact us through the Contact page.
Any comments, questions, or messages you submit through forms on the Site.

Information collected automatically

IP address, browser type, device type, and operating system.
Pages viewed, time spent on the site, referring website, and general browsing behaviour.
Approximate geographic location, derived from your IP address.

Information from cookies and similar technologies

We use cookies, web beacons, and similar tools to recognise your browser, remember your preferences, and understand how visitors use the site. See Section 4 below for full details.

3. How we use your information

We use the information we collect to:

Operate, maintain, and improve the site and its content.
Understand which articles, products, and categories our readers find useful.
Respond to your questions, comments, or support requests.
Measure the performance of affiliate links and advertising placements.
Detect, prevent, and address technical issues, fraud, or misuse of the site.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

4. Cookies and tracking technologies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help websites function properly and collect analytical data. Our Site uses the following types of cookies:

Essential cookies — needed for basic Site functionality.
Analytics cookies — such as those from Google Analytics, which help us understand traffic patterns and reader behavior.
Affiliate tracking cookies — placed by Amazon Associates and other affiliate networks when you click on an outbound product link. These cookies allow the retailer to credit us with a referral if you make a purchase.
Advertising cookies — which may be used by third-party ad networks to display relevant ads to you across other websites.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Please note that blocking certain cookies may affect the functionality of the site or prevent affiliate links from working as intended.

5. Amazon Associates disclosure

SmartDecorLab is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.

As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases. When you click on an Amazon link on our site and subsequently make a purchase, Amazon may pay us a small commission. This does not affect the price you pay. Amazon collects information related to these purchases in accordance with its own privacy policy, which we encourage you to review on Amazon’s website.

6. Other affiliate programs

In addition to Amazon Associates, we may participate in affiliate programmes with other retailers, marketplaces, and brands relevant to home décor and furnishings. These partnerships work in a similar way: if you click a link and make a qualifying purchase, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you. Specific partners are listed, where applicable, on our Affiliate Disclosure page.

7. Third-party links and services

Our site contains links to third-party websites, including retailers, brand pages, and social media platforms. We do not control these external sites and are not responsible for their content, privacy practices, or terms of use. We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of any third-party site before providing personal information or making a purchase.

8. How we share information

We may share information with:

Service providers who help us operate the Site, such as hosting providers, email service providers, and analytics tools.
Affiliate networks and partners, such as Amazon Associates, for the purpose of tracking referrals and commissions.
Legal authorities, where required to comply with a law, regulation, or valid legal request.
A successor entity, in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of site assets.

We do not share your personal information with third parties for their own independent marketing purposes without your consent.

9. Data retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

10. International Data Transfers

Your information may be processed or stored in countries other than your own, including where our service providers operate. By using the Site, you acknowledge that your information may be transferred internationally in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
