1. What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a small text file saved to your device (computer, tablet, or phone) when you visit a website. Cookies allow websites to remember your device, keep sessions active, understand site performance, and properly attribute affiliate referrals when you purchase from merchant partners.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
- Essential Technical Cookies: Necessary for the website to function securely and load properly (e.g. CSRF protection, theme preferences, and server load balancing). These cannot be disabled.
- Anonymous Analytics: We use privacy-friendly analytics to count aggregate page views and understand how visitors interact with our guides and comparisons. These do not track personal identifying information.
- Third-Party Affiliate Tracking Cookies (Amazon): When you click outbound product or deal links to Amazon, Amazon sets cookies on your device to attribute your purchase to PageCoupon.
3. Amazon Associates Affiliate Cookies
As an Amazon Associate, we rely on Amazon's tracking cookies to identify qualifying purchases:
- Session Duration: The standard Amazon tracking cookie remains active for 24 hours after you click an affiliate link on our site. If you complete an eligible purchase within 24 hours, Amazon pays us a commission.
- Shopping Cart Window: If you add an eligible item to your Amazon Shopping Cart within 24 hours, the attribution cookie extends for up to 90 days, provided the purchase is completed before the cart expires.
- No Personal Data Passed: PageCoupon never receives your name, credit card details, physical address, or account information from Amazon. We only receive aggregate, anonymous commission reports (e.g. "1 unit of Wireless Earbuds purchased").

- Apple Safari: Preferences → Privacy → Block all cookies or Prevent cross-site tracking.
