Privacy Policy

Information Smart Market Guide Handles

Smart Market Guide currently does not offer user accounts, a newsletter, checkout, or a contact form and does not ask visitors to submit names, email addresses, payment details, or Amazon account credentials.

Search terms and category selections on the home page are used in the browser to update the page and are not intentionally saved or sent to Smart Market Guide. A local-storage preference records whether you dismissed the cookie notice.

Technical Delivery Data

Like most websites, the hosting and security infrastructure may process standard technical information such as IP address, browser type, device information, request time, and requested page. This information is used to deliver the site, maintain security, troubleshoot problems, and prevent abuse.

Analytics and Advertising

Smart Market Guide does not currently run Google Analytics or place its own advertising cookies. If analytics or advertising services are introduced, this policy and the cookie notice will be updated before they are used where consent is required.

Amazon Affiliate Links

Following an Amazon product link takes you from Smart Market Guide to Amazon. If the link contains an assigned Associate ID, Amazon may collect information, recognize or place cookies, and process referral and purchase activity under its own policies. Smart Market Guide may then receive aggregated commission and performance reporting.

Review the Amazon Privacy Notice and our Amazon Associates Disclosure for more information.

Data Sharing and Retention

Smart Market Guide does not sell personal information. Information may be processed by service providers only as needed to host, secure, and operate the site, or disclosed when required by law. The cookie-notice preference remains on your device until you clear browser storage.

Your Choices

You can clear local storage and cookies in your browser, avoid affiliate links, or visit Amazon directly. Depending on where you live, applicable law may provide additional rights concerning personal information processed by service providers.

Children's Privacy

Smart Market Guide is a general-audience shopping guide and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Policy Updates

This policy may change as the site develops or legal requirements change. The revision date at the top of this page identifies the latest version.
