Who we are
Function Over 50 is a personal health and wellness website and YouTube channel for men over 50. Our website address is https://functionover50.com. You can reach us at functionover50@gmail.com.
Affiliate links and affiliate cookies
Function Over 50 participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.
Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you click one and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. When you click an affiliate link, the merchant may place a cookie in your browser so the referral can be credited. Those cookies are set and controlled by the merchant, not by us, and are governed by that merchant’s own privacy policy. We never receive your payment information, and we cannot see what any individual visitor purchased — only aggregate commission reporting.
Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string, to help with spam detection.
An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see whether you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available at https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public alongside your comment.
Email and newsletter
If you choose to subscribe to an email newsletter or to download a free resource from this site, we collect the email address and any name you provide, along with the date and source of your signup. We use this information only to send you the content you requested and occasional updates from Function Over 50. Every email includes an unsubscribe link, and you can opt out at any time. We do not sell or rent your email address. Email delivery is handled by a third-party email service provider that stores this information on our behalf under its own privacy policy.
Media
If you upload images to the website, avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract location data from images on the website.
Cookies
If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again on a future comment. They last for one year.
We also use cookies from the analytics and affiliate partners described elsewhere in this policy. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time.
Embedded content from other websites
Articles and pages on this site may include embedded content, such as YouTube videos. Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if you had visited that website directly. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content.
Analytics
We currently use Google Analytics and Google Search Console (through the Site Kit plugin) to understand how visitors find and use this site. These tools collect information such as which pages were visited, time spent on the site, approximate geographic region, referring source, and device and browser type. This information is aggregated and is not used to identify you personally. Google’s privacy policy is available at https://policies.google.com/privacy.
Who we share your data with
We do not sell your personal information. Data may be processed by the service providers used to operate this site, including our web host, our analytics provider, and our affiliate partners, each under their own privacy policies. If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
How long we retain your data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so that we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically. For users who register on this site, we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. Users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time, except they cannot change their username. Site administrators can also see and edit that information.
What rights you have over your data
If you have left comments on this site, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes. To make a request, email functionover50@gmail.com.

Function Over 50 documents one person’s health journey and shares general information. It is not medical advice. Nothing on this site should be used to diagnose or treat any condition. Always consult a qualified healthcare provider before making changes to your diet, exercise, medication, or supplement routine.
