Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how GearCrafted ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, stores, and shares information about you when you visit gearcrafted-affiliate.pages.dev (the "Site"). We have written this policy in plain language because we believe privacy notices should be readable, not buried in legal jargon.

If you have any questions, contact us at the address listed at the bottom of this page.

1. Information we collect

We collect a minimal amount of information, in three categories:

1.1 Information you give us directly

When you contact us via email, we receive whatever information you choose to include in your message (your name, email address, and message content). We use this information solely to respond to your message.

1.2 Information collected automatically

When you visit the Site, our hosting provider (Cloudflare Pages) and any third-party tools we use may automatically collect:

• IP address and approximate geographic location (country / city level)
• Browser type and version, operating system, device type
• Referring page, pages visited, time spent on pages
• Timestamps of your visit

This information is collected through standard web logs and cookies set by analytics tools we use.

1.3 Cookies and analytics

The Site may use cookies and similar tracking technologies. We use them for two purposes: (a) basic site functionality (e.g., remembering your preferences), and (b) aggregate analytics to understand which reviews are most useful. We do not use advertising cookies, and we do not allow third-party advertising networks to set cookies through the Site.

You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time. Some site features may not work correctly if cookies are disabled.

2. How we use your information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes only:

1. To respond to messages you send us.
2. To measure aggregate, non-identifying traffic patterns so we can improve our content.
3. To detect and prevent abuse, security incidents, or violations of our terms.
4. To comply with applicable legal obligations.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes.

3. Legal bases for processing (GDPR)

If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA) or the United Kingdom, our legal bases under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for processing your personal data are:

• Legitimate interests — for basic analytics and security, where our interests are not overridden by your rights.
• Consent — for any non-essential cookies or marketing communications, where we explicitly ask first.
• Legal obligation — where we are required to process data to comply with applicable law.

4. Your rights

4.1 EEA / UK residents (GDPR)

You have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you.
• Request correction of inaccurate data.
• Request deletion of your data ("right to be forgotten").
• Restrict or object to processing of your data.
• Request portability of your data.
• Withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent.
• Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

4.2 California residents (CCPA / CPRA)

You have the right to:

• Know what personal information we have collected about you.
• Request deletion of your personal information.
• Opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information. (We do not sell personal information, but you retain this right.)
• Non-discrimination for exercising your privacy rights.
• Limit the use of sensitive personal information. (We do not collect sensitive personal information as defined under CPRA.)

4.3 Exercising your rights

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the address below. We will respond within 30 days. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request to protect against fraudulent requests.

5. Third-party services

The Site relies on a small number of third-party services:

• Cloudflare Pages — site hosting and CDN. Cloudflare's privacy policy applies to data processed by their infrastructure.
• Email service — if you contact us, your message is delivered via standard email routing.
• Affiliate networks — when you click an affiliate link on the Site and make a purchase, the relevant affiliate network may set its own cookies. See the privacy policies of the affiliate networks we participate in.

We do not embed third-party advertising, social media tracking pixels, or third-party analytics scripts beyond what is strictly necessary for site operation.

6. Data retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy. Email inquiries are retained for up to 24 months for reference and follow-up, unless you request earlier deletion. Aggregate analytics data is retained for up to 26 months and then deleted or fully anonymized.

7. Children's privacy

The Site is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child under 16, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

8. International data transfers

The Site is hosted on Cloudflare's global CDN, which may process your data in regions outside your country of residence. Where required by GDPR or equivalent law, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or other lawful transfer mechanisms.

9. Security

We use industry-standard security measures provided by our hosting platform, including HTTPS encryption, security headers, and access controls. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, but we work to protect your information to the extent reasonably possible.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Material changes will be highlighted on the Site's homepage for at least 30 days after the change takes effect.
