Privacy
No accounts, no advertising trackers, no third-party analytics, and no cookies set by this site.
Plumzoo is a deals site. You can read all of it without telling us anything, and there is nothing here to sign up for. This page says exactly what is collected anyway, because “nothing” is not quite true and the difference is worth writing down.
What this site does not do
- No accounts, logins, or passwords — there is nothing to register for.
- No cookies set by Plumzoo. There is no consent banner because there is nothing to consent to.
- No Google Analytics, and no third-party analytics of any kind.
- No advertising networks, retargeting pixels, or social media trackers.
- No email list, and no newsletter. We do not ask for your email address.
- We do not log your IP address.
- We do not sell or share personal information, and never have.
The one thing stored in your browser
If you vote on a deal or leave a comment, a random identifier is generated and kept in your browser’s local storage. It is not a cookie — it is never sent to any other site, and it is not attached to page requests.
It exists for one reason: so that clicking “worth it” twice toggles your vote instead of counting twice, and so comments can be rate-limited. It is a random value with nothing derived from you in it, it is not linked to a name or an email, and clearing your browser storage deletes it permanently.
What we count
Two numbers per page: how many times it was opened, and how many times someone clicked through to a retailer. Both are stored as running totals. No row is written per visitor, nothing is attached to the identifier above, and nothing is kept that could reconstruct one person’s reading.
We keep these because the second one is the only figure on this site that maps to revenue, and it decides what gets published next.
What you choose to give us
- Comments. The text you write, and a display name if you enter one. The name field is optional; leave it blank and the comment shows as Anonymous.
- Deal submissions. The link you send, any note you add, and a name if you want credit on the post. All three are what you typed — nothing else is captured with them.
Comments and credited names are published on the site, so treat them as public. Do not put anything in either field you would not want indexed.
Affiliate links
Product links on this site are affiliate links, marked rel="sponsored", and we earn a commission when a purchase is made through one. This is the same disclosure as on How we check, and it is the part of this page most worth understanding:
When you click through, the retailer and its affiliate network set their own cookies on their own site. That is how the commission is attributed, and it is outside our control. Once you leave, you are on their page under their privacy policy, not this one. We are not told who you are, what you bought, or whether you bought anything — the reporting we receive is aggregate.
We do not run cashback, referral bonuses, or any scheme that pays readers for clicking, so no one here has a reason to build a profile of you.
Who else handles this data
The site runs on Vercel, its database is Supabase, and images are served from an S3-compatible object store. Each of these necessarily processes requests in order to serve pages, and each keeps its own operational server logs under its own policy. We do not read those logs to identify anyone, and no personal data is deliberately sent to any of them.
Children
This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect anything from them. There is very little to collect from anybody.
Your choices
Clearing your browser’s storage for this site deletes the identifier described above and, with it, the only link between you and any vote or comment you left.
If you want a comment or a credited name removed, write to hello@plumzoo.com and say which one. We will take it down. If you are in a jurisdiction with a statutory right of access or deletion, the same address is the way to exercise it — though in most cases the honest answer will be that we are not holding anything of yours.
Changes
If what this site collects changes, this page changes with it, and the date below moves. It is not a document that gets quietly broadened.
