Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information StoreForge collects when you visit the site, how it's used, and the choices you have. StoreForge is a content and review site: we don't require an account, and we don't sell personal data to third parties.

Information we collect

• Usage analytics. Standard, aggregated analytics (pages viewed, approximate location at the country/region level, device type, referring site) to understand which content is useful and fix what isn't.
• Affiliate link clicks. When you click an outbound affiliate link (see our affiliate disclosure), the destination site's own tracking (not ours) records that the click came from StoreForge, so a resulting purchase can be attributed correctly.
• Information you provide directly. If you email us or use a contact form, we retain that correspondence to respond to you and, where relevant, improve the site.

Cookies

This site uses cookies for basic analytics and to remember simple preferences. Cookies set by an affiliate partner's own tracking (after you click an outbound link) are controlled by that partner's privacy policy, not this one. You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time; doing so may affect analytics accuracy but won't break core site functionality.

How information is used

Aggregated analytics inform which reviews and guides we prioritize writing or updating. We do not use visitor data for targeted advertising on this site, and we do not sell personal data to third parties.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or request deletion of personal data we hold about you (for example, from an email exchange). To make such a request, contact us and we'll respond within a reasonable timeframe.

Third-party links

StoreForge links to third-party tools, platforms, and services throughout its reviews and guides. Once you leave this site, that third party's own privacy policy applies. We don't control and aren't responsible for the privacy practices of external sites.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the "Last updated" date at the top of this page will change too. Material changes will be reflected here directly; we don't send notifications for policy updates.
