Last Updated: Oct. 10th, 2025

This Privacy Policy governs the collection, use, storage, and disclosure of personal information by ComparisonHunter.com (hereinafter referred to as “we,” “us,” or “our”) when you access or use our website (https://www.comparisonhunter.com/, hereinafter referred to as “the Site”) and our associated services (collectively, “Services”). By using the Site or Services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

We collect two types of information: Personal Identifiable Information (PII) (information that can identify you) and Non-Personal Information (information that cannot identify you individually).

1.1 Personal Identifiable Information (PII)

We may collect PII only when you voluntarily provide it to us, including but not limited to:

• Contact information: Name, email address, phone number, and mailing address (e.g., when you subscribe to our newsletter, submit a contact form, or request support).
• Account information: Username, password (encrypted), and associated login details (if you create an account on the Site).
• Transaction-related information: If you make purchases or interact with affiliate links (e.g., Amazon, brand websites), we may collect limited transaction data (e.g., purchase date, product type) from third-party platforms (with your consent, as required by the third party’s privacy policy).

1.2 Non-Personal Information

• Device and technical data: Browser type, operating system, device model, IP address, screen resolution, and internet service provider.
• Usage data: Pages visited, time spent on the Site, links clicked, search queries, and referral sources (e.g., how you arrived at the Site).
• Aggregated data: Anonymous, statistical data about user behavior (e.g., “50% of users access the ‘Foot Patches’ page”), which cannot be linked to any individual.

2. How We Use Your Information

1. To provide and maintain the Site/Services: E.g., delivering content you request, processing newsletter subscriptions, or responding to support inquiries.
2. To improve and optimize the Site: E.g., analyzing user behavior to fix technical issues, update page layouts, or enhance content relevance.
3. To comply with legal obligations: E.g., responding to lawful requests from government authorities, or enforcing our Terms of Use.
4. To facilitate affiliate partnerships: E.g., tracking clicks on affiliate links (e.g., Amazon, Rescue Air Pump) to ensure accurate commission reporting (we do not share your PII with affiliates unless you explicitly consent to such sharing).

3. Your Rights Regarding Personal Information

As a user, you have legally protected rights regarding your PII, in line with global privacy standards (GDPR, CCPA, etc.). We make it easy for you to exercise these rights:

3.2 Right to Correct

If your PII is inaccurate or incomplete (e.g., outdated email address), you may request to update it:

• Log in to your account (if applicable) to edit your details directly; or

3.3 Right to Delete (“Right to Be Forgotten”)
