Information we collect
We may process basic technical information such as IP address, device and browser details, referrer, pages viewed, timestamps, and server logs. When you click an affiliate offer, we may record the offer, article, campaign parameters, referrer, and timestamp so we can understand which recommendations are useful.
Cookies
Essential cookies or local storage keep the site working and remember your cookie choices. Analytics cookies help us measure traffic and guide quality. Marketing cookies may support affiliate attribution, merchant measurement, or campaign performance. You can reopen cookie preferences from the footer at any time.
Affiliate programs
Signal & Spend participates in affiliate programs and may earn commissions from qualifying purchases. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. When you follow an affiliate link, the destination merchant may receive information needed for attribution and may process your visit under its own privacy policy.
Analytics and improvement
We use aggregated analytics and affiliate click data to understand product coverage, article performance, conversion patterns, stale recommendations, and future content opportunities. The goal is to improve evidence-led recommendations, not to sell personal profiles.
Service providers
The site may use infrastructure, database, CDN, storage, analytics, affiliate network, and merchant services to host pages, protect the site, measure performance, and route offers. These providers process information only as needed for their role.
Admin data
If you are an operator with admin access, we may process authentication, audit, content workflow, and product-management activity needed to run the platform.
Your choices
You can adjust cookie preferences in the footer, block cookies in your browser, or use browser privacy controls. Some essential storage is required for site preferences and security.
Retention
We keep logs, analytics, and affiliate click data for as long as needed to operate, secure, debug, and improve the product intelligence platform, unless a longer period is required by law or affiliate reporting obligations.
Changes
We may update this policy as the site adds new merchants, analytics tools, product providers, or affiliate integrations.
