Who Operates PriceLance
PriceLance is an informational service that helps you compare prices for technology products from multiple online retailers. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you use PriceLance and how we use it.
Information We Collect
a) Technical and usage data
When you visit PriceLance, we may automatically collect certain technical information, including:
- Your IP address (which may be anonymized or aggregated for analytics).
- Browser type and version.
- Device type and operating system.
- Pages you visit, search queries you enter, and general usage patterns.
- Referring website (the page that linked you to PriceLance).
This data is used to understand how the site is used, to improve performance, and to identify where the experience can be improved. We do not use this data to personally identify you.
b) Data you actively provide
PriceLance is designed to be usable without creating an account or logging in. In normal use, you are not required to provide personal information. If you choose to contact us (for example, by email), we may store the information you send in order to respond and keep basic records of the communication.
How We Use the Information
We use the information we collect to:
- Operate and maintain the PriceLance service.
- Improve the site, fix bugs, and develop new features.
- Understand which products and features are most useful to visitors.
- Respond to questions or feedback you send us.
Cookies and Local Storage
PriceLance may use cookies or local storage to:
- Remember your preferences (such as theme or location settings).
- Store your list of favorite products locally.
- Collect anonymous analytics data.
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, but some features may not work as expected if you do so.
Third-Party Services
We may use third-party services for analytics, hosting, or other operational purposes. These services may collect data according to their own privacy policies.
When you click on an affiliate link, your browser may be redirected through an affiliate network before arriving at the retailer's website. Non-personal identifiers (such as a campaign ID or click reference) may be included in the URL so that the affiliate network can attribute any resulting purchases. These tracking parameters are not used by PriceLance to identify you personally. The data collected on the retailer's side is governed by the retailer's and affiliate network's own privacy policies.
Links to Other Sites
PriceLance contains links to retailer websites and other third-party sites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any site you visit.
Data Retention
We retain technical and usage data only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law. Aggregated or anonymized data that cannot be used to identify you may be retained indefinitely for analytical purposes.
Your Choices
- You can use PriceLance without providing personal information.
- You can disable cookies or clear local storage through your browser settings.
- If you prefer not to use affiliate links, you may navigate to the retailer's website directly.
- If you have contacted us and want your information removed, you can request this by emailing us.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
