Privacy Policy
Who we are
Shopqfold runs shopqfold.com and is the data controller for the personal data collected on it. For any privacy question or request, use our Contact page.
What we collect and why
Shopqfold is a product discovery site. We do not sell products, take payments or offer customer accounts. We collect:
- Contact form. When you send a message through the form (WPForms), we collect your name, phone number, email address and message, and use them to reply. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in answering enquiries, or steps you ask us to take.
- Newsletter. When you sign up (through Hostinger Reach), we collect your email address and use it to send product and offer emails. Legal basis: your consent. You can unsubscribe at any time with the link in each email.
- Analytics. If you accept analytics in our cookie banner, we use Google Analytics (set up through Google Site Kit). It collects the pages you view, your approximate location, your device and browser type, and the page that referred you, using cookies and similar identifiers. Legal basis: your consent. Nothing loads until you accept, and you can withdraw consent at any time (see Cookies below).
- Affiliate link clicks. Product links go through a redirect on shopqfold.com that starts with /go/ (Pretty Links). We may log basic technical data about each click, such as the date, your browser type and the page you came from. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in seeing which products interest visitors.
- Server logs. Our hosting provider, Hostinger, logs details such as your IP address and the pages requested. We use them to keep the site secure and running. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in security and operating the site.
Cookies
When you first visit shopqfold.com, a banner asks whether you accept analytics cookies. Until you accept, Google Analytics does not load and no analytics cookies are set. This applies to every visitor, wherever you live, and rejecting is as easy as accepting.
| Cookie | Set by | Purpose | Lasts |
|---|---|---|---|
| sf_consent | shopqfold.com | Remembers your cookie choice. Necessary for the banner to work. | 12 months |
| _ga and _ga_ followed by an ID | Google Analytics | Tells visitors apart and counts visits and page views. Set only after you accept analytics. | 2 years |
To change your choice, use the Cookie settings link in the footer. If you withdraw consent, we stop sending data to Google Analytics and delete its cookies from your device. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings.
We do not use advertising cookies. Hostinger, which hosts shopqfold.com and provides our newsletter form, receives your IP address when pages and the form script load. Fonts are served from shopqfold.com, not from Google.
Affiliate links and third parties
When you click through to Amazon, Sovrn or a merchant, that third party sets its own cookies and collects its own data under its own privacy policy. We do not control what they do with it. Our Affiliate Disclosure explains how the links work.
Who we share data with
We share data with Hostinger, which hosts the site and delivers our newsletter, and with Google for analytics. We may disclose data if the law requires it. We do not sell your personal data.
International transfers
Some of these providers may process data outside the UK and the European Economic Area. Where they do, they use safeguards such as standard contractual clauses where the law requires them.
How long we keep data
We keep personal data only as long as we need it for the purpose we collected it. Newsletter email addresses stay until you unsubscribe. Analytics data stays for the period set in our Google Analytics account.
Your rights
If you live in the UK or Europe, UK GDPR and EU GDPR give you the right to:
- access your data
- correct mistakes
- have your data erased
- restrict how we use it
- object to our use of it
- receive it in a portable format
- withdraw consent at any time
If you live in a US state with a privacy law, such as California, Colorado, Connecticut, Texas or Virginia, you can ask us to tell you what personal data we hold about you, to correct or delete it, and to give you a copy. We do not sell personal data, and we do not share it for targeted advertising. We will not treat you differently for using these rights. If you live elsewhere, local law may give you similar rights. To use any of them, contact us through the Contact page. You can also complain to your data protection regulator, such as the UK Information Commissioner’s Office.
Children
The site is not aimed at people under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from them.
Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the personal data we hold from loss, misuse and unauthorised access. No online service is completely secure.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. We will post the new version on this page and change the date below.
