1. Introduction

Welcome to Online Selects. We are a digital media and information platform dedicated to curating market trends and product opportunities. We value your privacy and operate under a strict policy of Data Minimization. We do not create user profiles, we do not have user accounts, and we do not sell your personal data.

This Privacy Policy explains how we handle the limited technical data generated when you access our Site. By using the Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

2. Information Collection (Passive & Technical)

We do not collect directly identifiable information such as your name, physical address, or phone number. We do not offer newsletters or contact forms that store personal data.

2.1 Server Logs and Security Data

When you visit the Site, our servers automatically log standard technical information provided by your web browser (“Log Data”). This includes:

  • Internet Protocol (IP) Address: Processed for security purposes to identify malicious bot traffic and prevent ad fraud.
  • Device Information: Browser type, operating system, and device type (mobile vs. desktop) to ensure the site displays correctly.
  • Timestamps: The date and time of your visit.

Legal Basis (GDPR): We process this data under Legitimate Interest (Art. 6(1)(f)) to maintain the integrity of our systems, prevent invalid clicks on affiliate links, and protect against cyber threats.

2.2 Cookies and Attribution Technology

We use cookies (small text files stored on your device) solely for technical operation and commercial attribution. We do not use Google Analytics, we do not use remarketing pixels, and we do not track your browsing history across other websites.

  • Essential Cookies: Necessary for the website to function (e.g., load balancing).
  • Affiliate & Conversion Tags:
  • Ad Attribution: If you visit our site via an advertisement (e.g., Google Ads), we use conversion tags (such as the Google Ads Conversion Linker) to verify if your click resulted in a valid site visit. This does not identify you personally but helps us measure the effectiveness of our advertising spend.
  • Affiliate Links: When you click on a link to a retailer’s product, a tracking cookie may be placed on your device to credit Online Selects for the referral. This process is anonymized and strictly functional.

3. How We Use Your Information

The limited data we collect is used for:

  1. System Security: detecting and blocking fraudulent activity.
  2. Commercial Attribution: ensuring accurate reporting of affiliate commissions.
  3. Technical Debugging: fixing errors in site display.

4. Third-Party Disclosure

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your Personally Identifiable Information to outside parties. We do not have a database of users to sell.

Data is shared only with:

  • Service Providers: Hosting and infrastructure providers (e.g., Cloudflare, Google Cloud) who process data on our behalf to deliver the website.
  • Affiliate Networks: Aggregated click data is shared with affiliate networks to validate referrals.

5. Your Data Protection Rights (GDPR – Europe)

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA), you have rights regarding your personal data. Although we collect minimal data, you have the right to:

  • Access: Request information about the data we hold (typically limited to server logs).
  • Erasure: Request that we delete data associated with your IP address, subject to our legitimate interest in fraud retention.
  • Object: Object to processing based on legitimate interest.

To exercise these rights, please contact us at contact@onlineselects.pro.

6. CCPA Notice (California Residents)

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and CPRA:

  • We Do Not Sell Your Personal Information. We do not exchange personal data for money.
  • Right to Opt-Out: While we do not sell data, the use of third-party attribution cookies could broadly be interpreted as “sharing” under California law. You may opt out of this by enabling the “Global Privacy Control” (GPC) signal on your browser or clicking the “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” link in our footer (if applicable).
  • Right to Know/Delete: You may request disclosure of data collection categories or deletion of your data by emailing us.

7. Links to Other Sites

Our Site contains links to third-party websites (retailers, vendors). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these external sites. Once you leave our domain, this policy no longer applies.
