Information we collect

We collect only the information needed to run and improve the service:

• Account information: If you create a free account, we collect your email address and a password hash managed by our authentication provider.
• Search activity: The store names and queries you enter help us rank trending stores and improve results.
• Saved items: Coupons, favorite stores, and votes you save are tied to your account when you are logged in.
• Newsletter subscriptions: Your email address if you sign up for the weekly deal newsletter.
• Contact form submissions: Name, email, subject, and message when you email us through the contact page.
• Technical data: Browser type, IP address, approximate location, device information, and pages visited. This is used for security, analytics, and to estimate bot traffic.

How we use your information

We use your information to:

• Provide coupon search, deal tracking, and market-outlook features.
• Send the weekly newsletter to subscribers who opted in.
• Respond to contact-form questions and support requests.
• Improve rankings, suggestions, and site performance.
• Detect and block abuse, bots, and spam.

We do not sell your personal information. We do not use your data for automated decision-making that produces legal or similarly significant effects.

Cookies and tracking

We use cookies and similar browser storage to keep you signed in, remember your preferences, and measure site usage. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but some features (such as saved coupons or account login) may not work properly.

Affiliate links and third parties

Some coupon and deal links are affiliate links. When you click through and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. We also use third-party services to operate the site:

• Authentication and database services: to manage accounts, store coupon data, and send emails.
• Affiliate coupon feeds: to source the offers displayed on the site.
• Kalshi Research: public market data shown on the Consumer Market Outlook page.
• Analytics: to understand traffic and improve the site.

These third parties have their own privacy policies. We only share the minimum information needed for them to provide their services.

Data retention

We keep your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service. Search analytics and visit logs are kept for operational and security purposes and are periodically summarized or deleted. You can request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting us.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal information we hold about you.
• Correct inaccurate information.
• Delete your account and personal data.
• Object to or limit certain processing.
• Unsubscribe from the newsletter at any time using the link in every email.
