Privacy Policy
Last Updated: 09/11/2025
Introduction: Nothing But Affiliate ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how personal data is collected, used, and shared when you visit or interact with OurPolicyDocs.com or any of the affiliate websites operated by Nothing But Affiliate (collectively, "the Sites"). This Policy applies to all websites in our affiliate network covering e-commerce, health, gadgets, and general consumer products. We comply with the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and relevant privacy laws, and we strive to make this Policy clear and easy to understand.
Information We Collect
- Personal Information You Provide: We collect personal information that you voluntarily provide, for example:
- Contact Forms: If you contact us through a form or email, we may collect your name, email address, and the content of your message.
- Newsletter Sign-Up: If you subscribe to our email newsletters, we collect your email address and any preferences you provide.
- Comments or Feedback: If any of our Sites allow user comments or feedback, we collect the information you post.
Information Collected Automatically: When you visit our Sites, we automatically collect certain data:
- Device and Usage Data: This includes your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, pages viewed, and the dates/times of access. We use Google Analytics and similar tools to gather usage statistics.
- Cookies and Tracking: We use cookies and similar technologies (like web beacons and pixels) to enhance your experience and analyze usage. For instance, Google Analytics and Meta Pixel cookies track how you navigate the site and interact with content. Some cookies are necessary for site functionality, while others (analytics/advertising cookies) are used only with your consent (see Cookies and Tracking Technologies below and our Cookie Policy for details).
How We Use Your Information
We use collected information for the following purposes:
- To Provide and Improve Our Sites: We analyze how users navigate our content to improve site design, layout, and content relevance. For example, we use analytics data to understand popular pages and optimize user experience.
- To Communicate with You: If you fill out a contact form or email us, we use your information to respond to your inquiries. If you join our mailing list, we'll send you newsletters or updates you've signed up for (you may unsubscribe at any time).
- Affiliate Marketing Operations: When you click affiliate links on our Sites, we may record that referral (via cookies or unique URLs) to ensure we receive proper credit for any resulting purchases (see Affiliate Links and Advertising below).
- Legal Compliance and Protection: We may process personal data as required to comply with legal obligations (such as keeping records or responding to lawful requests), and to protect our rights, users, or others (for example, to prevent fraud or enforce our Terms of Service).
- Personalization (if applicable): We might use data to personalize content or recommendations on our Sites. (Currently, we do not profile users for targeted content beyond basic analytics and advertising as described.)
Legal Bases for Processing (GDPR)
If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA) or UK, our legal bases for collecting and using personal information under GDPR are:
- Consent: We rely on your consent for optional data processing activities, such as sending marketing emails or using non-essential cookies/trackers. For example, we will only deploy Google Analytics or Meta Pixel cookies after you consent via our cookie banner.
- Legitimate Interests: We may process data for purposes of our legitimate interests, such as maintaining security of the Sites, responding to your inquiries, or improving our services. When we do so, we consider your privacy rights and ensure no undue harm to you.
- Contract Performance: If you engage in a transaction or sign up for services (e.g., request information, subscribe to a newsletter), we process your data as needed to fulfill our agreement with you.
- Legal Obligation: In some cases, we must process data to comply with a legal obligation (for instance, retaining transaction records for tax or accounting purposes, or providing information to authorities if lawfully required).
Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate and analyze our Sites. A cookie is a small data file stored on your device. We categorize cookies as follows:
- Essential Cookies: These are necessary for the website to function (e.g., to remember your cookie preferences or provide core features). They do not require consent.
- Analytics Cookies: We use Google Analytics to collect information about how visitors use our Sites (e.g., which pages are visited, how long spent on site). This helps us improve content and user experience. Google Analytics cookies may collect your IP address (which we anonymize where possible) and generate aggregate statistics. Data may be transmitted to Google servers (which could be outside the EU – see Data Transfers below). We only use analytics cookies with your consent in compliance with EU ePrivacy rules. Google provides an opt-out browser add-on if you wish to disable Google Analytics across all sites.
- Advertising/Tracking Cookies: We utilize the Meta Pixel (Facebook Pixel) and similar technologies to understand the effectiveness of our content on social media and to assist with any re-marketing campaigns. These trackers can identify that you visited our site and may be used to show you related ads on Facebook/Meta services. Such tracking is only activated with your consent.
- Affiliate Tracking Cookies: If you click an affiliate link on our Sites, a cookie may be placed on your browser by the merchant or affiliate network to track the referral. This cookie allows the third party to recognize that you came from our Sites, so we can earn a commission if you make a purchase. These cookies typically last for a limited time (e.g., 30 days) and are subject to the privacy policies of the respective third-party merchants or affiliate networks.
For detailed information, please review our separate Cookie Policy which provides more details on what cookies we use and how you can control them. You can manage your cookie preferences at any time through our cookie consent tool or your browser settings. Note that disabling certain cookies (especially essential ones) may affect the functionality of the Sites.
Affiliate Links and Advertising
Nothing But Affiliate earns revenue through affiliate marketing. This means some links on our Sites are “affiliate links,” which have a tracking code. If you click an affiliate link and then make a purchase on a third-party website, we may receive an affiliate commission. This comes at no extra cost to you. We believe in transparency and want you to know that:
- Identification of Affiliate Links: We endeavor to clearly mark or disclose when a link or content is sponsored or affiliate in nature. For example, our posts may contain a statement that the page includes affiliate links, or we might label certain links as "(affiliate link)" where appropriate.
- No Influence on Our Reviews: We provide honest opinions, findings, and experiences on products and services. Compensation through affiliate programs does not influence our editorial content. We only affiliate with products or services that we believe may provide value to users.
- Affiliate Programs: Our company participates in several affiliate programs. For instance, we may earn commissions via links to other online retailers or service providers.
- Compliance with Regulations: We adhere to the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines (16 CFR Part 255) which require clear and conspicuous disclosure of our affiliate relationships. Likewise, we follow international and EU requirements (such as the Unfair Commercial Practices Directive in the EU) that mandate honest disclosure of commercial content. In short, we will not mislead you – if content is sponsored or affiliate-driven, we will make sure you know.
Please also see our separate Affiliate Disclosure page for more information. We want you to be fully informed before engaging with affiliate links on our Sites.
Data Sharing and Disclosure
We treat your personal data with care and confidentiality. We do not sell personal information to third parties. However, we may share information in the following circumstances:
- Service Providers: We use trusted third-party service providers to help us operate the Sites or conduct business (for example, hosting providers, email newsletter services, analytics services like Google Analytics, etc.). These providers process data on our behalf and are contractually obligated to protect it and use it only for the services provided.
- Affiliate and Advertising Partners: When you click an affiliate link, data about that action (such as the fact that you clicked from our site) is shared with the merchant or affiliate network to track commissions. We do not provide your personal details to them, but the act of clicking a link may let the third party infer that you visited us. Also, if we display any banner ads or use advertising networks, those networks may collect data via cookies as described in the Cookies section.
- Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., a court or government agency). We may also disclose data if we believe it's necessary to comply with a legal obligation, protect our rights or users' safety, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request.
- Business Transfers: If Nothing But Affiliate is involved in a merger, acquisition, asset sale, or other corporate transaction, user information (as part of assets) may be transferred to the successor or new owner. If such a transfer occurs, we will ensure the new owner is bound to respect your personal data in a manner consistent with this Privacy Policy.
International Data Transfers
Our Sites are operated from Italy and we target users in multiple regions (including the EU). However, some of our service providers or affiliates might be located in other countries (for example, Google and Meta are U.S. companies). Whenever personal data is transferred outside of the European Economic Area (EEA) or your home jurisdiction, we will take steps to ensure adequate protection:
- We rely on legally-provided mechanisms to lawfully transfer data across borders, such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses or an adequacy decision for the destination country (if applicable).
- For instance, data collected by Google Analytics or Meta Pixel may be stored on servers in the United States. These providers are contractually bound by Standard Contractual Clauses to protect EU personal data, and we enable additional measures like IP anonymization in analytics to safeguard privacy.
- You acknowledge that if you provide information to us, it may be transferred to and processed in countries outside your own. We will protect it as described in this Policy, regardless of location.
(If we designate a specific EU representative or Data Protection Officer for GDPR compliance, their contact information would be listed here.)
Data Retention
We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law:
- Contact and Inquiry Data: If you contact us, we may retain your communications and our responses for a reasonable period to manage our relationship, for training and quality assurance, or to establish a record in case of legal needs.
- Newsletter Subscription Data: We keep your email on our mailing list until you unsubscribe or ask us to delete it. Once you opt-out, we will stop sending emails, but may keep a record of your request to ensure we honor it going forward.
- Analytics Data: Data collected via Google Analytics is retained according to Google’s default retention settings or our configuration (often aggregated and retained for 14 months or as needed to identify usage trends). We review analytics data periodically and may delete or anonymize older data.
- Cookies: Cookie lifespans vary. Some cookies (like affiliate tracking cookies) last only days or weeks; others (analytics cookies) might last several months unless cleared. You can erase cookies any time via your browser.
- Legal Retention: We may retain information as needed to comply with legal obligations (for example, records of consents, transaction records if any) or to resolve disputes and enforce agreements.Once retention periods expire, we will delete or anonymize your personal data in a secure manner.
Your Rights (GDPR and Data Protection)
If you are located in the EU, EEA, UK, or other jurisdictions with similar data protection laws, you have certain rights regarding your personal data. Nothing But Affiliate is committed to honoring these rights. In particular, under GDPR you have the following right:
- Right to Access: You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you and information on how we process it.
- Right to Rectification: If any of your personal information is inaccurate or incomplete, you have the right to request correction or completion.
- Right to Erasure: You can ask us to delete your personal data under certain circumstances – for example, if it's no longer needed for the purposes it was collected, or if you withdraw consent and no other legal basis for processing applies. This is also known as the "right to be forgotten."
- Right to Restrict Processing: You have the right to request that we limit the processing of your data (e.g., while we verify your data correction requests or objections).
- Right to Object: You may object to our processing of your personal data when we rely on legitimate interests as the legal basis. For example, you can object to marketing emails or to any profiling we might perform. If you object, we will cease the processing unless we have compelling legitimate grounds to continue or where it’s needed for legal claims.
- Right to Data Portability: You have the right to obtain your personal data that you provided to us in a structured, commonly used format so you can re-use it or transfer it to another controller where applicable.
- Right not to be Subject to Automated Decisions: We do not use personal data to make automated decisions about you without human involvement. In the event we ever do, you would have the right to contest and obtain human intervention.
- Right to Withdraw Consent: If we are processing your personal data based on your consent (for example, for optional newsletter or non-essential cookies), you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time. This will not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
- Right to Complaint: If you believe your data protection rights have been violated, you have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority in your country (for EU residents, this is your national Data Protection Authority). We would appreciate the chance to address your concerns first, so please feel free to contact us with any issues.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at nothingbutaffiliate@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests. We will respond to your request within the time frame required by law (generally within one month for GDPR requests). Note that some rights may be subject to exceptions or limitations under applicable law.
Security
We employ reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the personal data we collect against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include encryption of data in transit (HTTPS secure browsing on our Sites), firewalls and access controls on our servers, and limited access to personal data by our staff on a need-to-know basis. However, please understand that no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security. You share and provide data at your own risk and responsibility.
If we ever experience a data breach that affects your personal information, we will notify you and the relevant authorities as required by law.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or other factors. When we make changes, we will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of this Policy. If the changes are significant, we may provide a more prominent notice (such as a notice on our Sites or an email notification). We encourage you to review this Policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your information.
Your continued use of our Sites after any update indicates your acceptance of the changes.
