CoolShit (mycoolshit.com and buymycoolshit.com) is a curation and affiliate discovery platform. This policy explains what data we collect and how we use it.
Information We Collect
- Basic analytics via server logs and voluntary interactions (upvotes, clicks on tracked links).
- Email addresses when you voluntarily subscribe to our newsletter.
- Standard technical data (IP, user agent, referrer) when you visit or click outbound links.
How We Use Data
- To power the upvoting and ranking system.
- To track affiliate link performance (click counts) so we can improve curation and report to partners.
- To send you the newsletter you signed up for (you can unsubscribe anytime).
- To understand what products the community finds valuable.
Affiliate Links & Third Parties
When you click "Check It Out" or any product link, you are taken to a third-party merchant (Amazon, manufacturer sites, etc.) via our tracking redirect. Those sites have their own privacy policies. We receive a commission on qualifying purchases in many cases.
