Effective Date: June 22, 2025

Who we are Our website address is: https://www.couponsnow.com. CouponsNow.com is an affiliate marketing website that provides information, reviews, and links to various products and services. We participate in various affiliate programs, and when you make a purchase through links on our site, we may earn a commission.

What personal data we collect and why we collect it

Comments When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection. An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media If you upload images to the website, you should avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS) included. Visitors to the website can download and extract any location data from images on the website.

Contact forms If you use our contact form, we collect the information you provide (e.g., your name, email address, and message) to respond to your inquiry. This data is used solely for the purpose of communicating with you and will not be used for marketing purposes without your explicit consent. We retain contact form submissions for a reasonable period for customer service purposes.

Cookies If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you have an account and you log in to this site, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser. When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed. If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

We also use cookies for the following purposes:

  • Affiliate Tracking: Our affiliate partners use cookies to track referrals from our website. This allows us to earn a commission when you make a purchase through our affiliate links. These cookies typically have a limited lifespan (e.g., 30-90 days) and do not collect personally identifiable information about you, only that a click originated from our site.
  • Analytics: We use cookies to collect anonymous information about how visitors use our website (e.g., pages visited, time on site, referring websites). This helps us understand user behavior and improve our website’s content and functionality. (See “Analytics” section below for more details.)
  • Advertising: We may use cookies to deliver personalized advertisements to you on our website or other websites based on your Browse activity.

You can control and/or delete cookies as you wish. You can delete all cookies that are already on your computer and you can set your browser to prevent them from being placed. However, if you do this, you may have to manually adjust some preferences every time you visit our site and some services and functionalities may not work.

Embedded content from other websites Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Analytics We use Google Analytics to collect information about the use of this website. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit this site, what pages they visit when they do so, and what other sites they used prior to coming to this site. We use the information we get from Google Analytics only to improve this site. Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit this site, rather than your name or other identifying information. We do not combine the information collected through the use of Google Analytics with personally identifiable information. Although Google Analytics plants a permanent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit this site, the cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to this site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy. You can prevent Google Analytics from recognizing you on return visits to this site by disabling cookies on your browser.

Who we share your data with

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information to outside parties except as described below:

  • Affiliate Partners: As an affiliate website, we share non-personally identifiable information (e.g., click data, referral IDs) with our affiliate networks and merchants to track sales and commissions. This is essential for the operation of our business. Your personal data is not directly shared with these partners unless you provide it to them directly through their own websites after clicking an affiliate link.
  • Service Providers: We may employ third-party companies and individuals to facilitate our website (e.g., hosting, analytics, spam detection). These third parties have access to your personal data only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose your personal data if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., a court or government agency).

How long we retain your data If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue. For users that register on our website (if any), we also store the personal information they provide in their user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except they cannot change their username). Website administrators can also see and edit that information. Contact form submissions are retained for a reasonable period for customer service purposes. Analytics data is retained according to Google Analytics’ standard retention policies.

What rights you have over your data If you have an account on this site, or have left comments, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

To exercise these rights, please contact us using the information provided in the “Your contact information” section below.

Where we send your data Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Data collected through analytics and cookies may be processed by third-party services (e.g., Google Analytics) in various locations around the world. These services are bound by their own privacy policies.

Additional information

How we protect your data We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your personal data when you enter, submit, or access your personal information. These measures include:

  • SSL/TLS encryption: Our website uses SSL/TLS encryption to protect data transmitted between your browser and our server.
  • Regular Security Scans: We regularly scan our website for malware and vulnerabilities.
  • Access Control: Access to personal data is restricted to authorized personnel only.
  • Secure Hosting: We use reputable hosting providers with strong security protocols.

While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security. No method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure.

What data breach procedures we have in place In the event of a data breach, we will:

  • Assess the scope and impact of the breach.
  • Notify affected users without undue delay, as required by applicable laws.
  • Take steps to mitigate the breach and prevent future occurrences.
  • Cooperate with relevant authorities as required.

What third parties we receive data from We do not directly receive personal data about you from third parties. Our affiliate tracking systems inform us of successful referrals from our site to merchant sites, but this typically involves aggregated, non-personally identifiable data related to the transaction (e.g., sale amount, product category).

What automated decision making and/or profiling we do with user data We do not engage in automated decision-making or profiling that would have a significant legal or similar effect on individuals. Our use of analytics and advertising cookies is for general website improvement and ad personalization, not for making automated decisions about specific individuals.
