Coupons Privacy Policy
Your privacy is paramount. This policy specifically explains how we handle your data in connection with our coupons and deals service.
What is the scope of this policy?
This Coupons Privacy Policy is an addendum to our main Truth Sider Privacy Policy. It applies specifically to the information collected and processed when you interact with our coupons, deals, and promotional offers ("Coupon Service"). By using the Coupon Service, you agree to the practices described in both this policy and our main Privacy Policy.
What data do we collect when you use coupons?
To provide and improve our Coupon Service, we collect certain types of information. This data is primarily non-personally identifiable:
- Usage Data: We collect anonymous data about how you interact with our coupons, such as which coupons you view, which links you click, and which deals are most popular.
- Technical Data: This includes your browser type, device type, and general geographic location (e.g., country) to help us understand our audience and optimize the service.
- Optional Location Data: If you grant permission, we may use your more specific location (e.g., city) to show you relevant local deals. You can revoke this permission at any time in your browser or device settings.
We do not collect sensitive personal information like your name, email, or credit card details through your general use of the Coupon Service.
How do we use this data?
The data we collect is used for the following purposes:
- To Operate and Improve the Service: We analyze usage trends to understand what deals are popular and to improve the layout and functionality of our coupon section.
- To Personalize Your Experience: We may use your browsing behavior and location to highlight deals that are more likely to be relevant and useful to you.
- To Fulfill Our Business Model: We use tracking data to ensure we are correctly credited for sales that originate from our site (see "Affiliate Cookies" below).
Do we share data with third parties?
When you click on a coupon or deal link, you will be redirected to a third-party merchant's website. Our privacy policy does not cover their data practices. We also share data in the following limited ways:
- Affiliate Networks: We share anonymous click and tracking data with our affiliate network partners to attribute sales and earn commissions. This data does not contain your personal information.
- Analytics Providers: We use services like Google Analytics to analyze aggregated, anonymous user data to understand traffic and usage patterns.
What are affiliate cookies?
When you click on a coupon link, a small text file called a "cookie" is placed on your device by our affiliate partner. This cookie contains a unique, anonymous ID that tells the retailer's website that you came from Truth Sider. If you make a purchase, this cookie allows the sale to be credited to us. These cookies are essential for our business model and do not store any personal information about you.
What are your rights?
You retain all your data protection rights as outlined in our main Privacy Policy. You have control over your data, including the right to manage cookies in your browser settings and control location permissions on your device.
