This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and share your personal information when you interact with our Extension. Our goal is to be transparent about how your data is handled and to provide options to control its use.
1. Information We Collect
When you use our Onestart Coupons Extension, we may collect certain information, including:
- Usage Data: This includes information on how you interact with the extension, such as the features you use, the links you click, and your browsing activity within the extension.
- Technical Data: Information like your IP address, browser type, operating system, and extension version may also be collected to ensure optimal functionality.
- Personal Information: This includes data such as your email address, account details, or other identifiers if you’ve registered through our services.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information collected to:
- Improve the extension’s functionality and user experience.
- Provide you with relevant offers, coupons, or promotions from merchants.
- Track your interaction with merchants to ensure proper tracking of affiliate-related transactions.
3. Data Sharing and Affiliate Networks
When you engage with a merchant through our Chrome extension to initiate a transaction, your interaction signals your intent to use our service to access affiliate offers. This interaction allows us to share specific details about you, such as the link you clicked and a unique tracking ID, with affiliate networks to ensure accurate tracking and credit for your purchases. In cases where merchants do not use an affiliate network, the same information is provided directly to the merchant.
Our affiliate partners collect information about your use of our services in relation to the offers you interact with, primarily to track purchases. Some partners may use this data for additional purposes like performance measurement or to enhance their own user profiles, which they may share with their business clients. Under certain state privacy laws, this sharing of your information could be classified as a "sale" or "sharing" of personal data.
4. Targeted Advertising and Marketing
Additionally, if we use your browsing behavior to tailor marketing offers from specific merchants within our extension, this may also qualify as "selling," "sharing," or targeted advertising.
We may also collaborate with merchants to test and analyze how well our services drive engagement and sales. This may involve sharing shopping identifiers, order information, or anonymized data, which can be used to improve our extension and market it to other merchants. You can opt out of this data sharing through the options provided in Section 5 of our privacy policy.
5. Your Privacy Choices
You have the authority to manage how your personal information is utilized, particularly regarding data sharing with affiliate networks and third-party merchants.
By using our Chrome Extension, you consent to the collection and sharing of your data with affiliate networks and third-party merchants for purposes beyond merely validating and completing your transactions. If you wish to opt out, you can uninstall the extension from your Chrome browser. Alternatively, if you prefer to keep the extension but hide it, simply uncheck the Enabled box.
6. Security and Data Retention
We take appropriate security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access or disclosure. Your data is retained only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law.
Opt out: If you have any questions regarding this Privacy Policy, would like to review, update or remove your Personal Data, or would like more information on our data collection, usage, and privacy practices, please contact us: https://onestart.ai/contact-us
