Important Health & Affiliate Privacy Notice
PureGuide.io participates in affiliate marketing programs and provides health‑related information for educational and informational purposes. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using the Service, you consent to the practices described here.
Information We Collect
We collect only the data necessary to operate an affiliate‑supported content site and to improve user experience.
Depending on how you interact with the Service, we may collect:
- Contact information – such as your name and email address when you voluntarily submit a query or subscribe to updates
- Affiliate referral data – click timestamps, referring pages, anonymized IDs, and products purchased so we can credit commissions (we do not receive your full payment details)
- Device & usage data – IP address, browser type, operating system, pages viewed, and interaction events, collected automatically for analytics and fraud‑prevention
- Cookies & similar technologies – including first‑party preference cookies, analytics cookies, and third‑party affiliate tracking cookies
We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal data (e.g., health records) and ask that you do not provide such information via contact forms.
How We Use Your Information
We process personal data for the following purposes:
- Operate, maintain, and secure the Service
- Track affiliate referrals and validate commission eligibility
- Analyze site performance and improve content quality
- Respond to user inquiries and feedback
- Comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Service
We do not sell your personal information or use it for unsolicited marketing unrelated to the Service.
Legal Bases for Processing (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or United Kingdom (UK), our legal bases for processing your personal data are:
- Consent – for optional cookies, newsletters, and communications you request
- Legitimate interests – to operate an affiliate site, improve our Service, and prevent fraud, provided these interests are not outweighed by your data‑protection rights
- Legal obligations – to comply with applicable laws, tax, and regulatory requirements
Information Sharing
We do not sell or rent personal data. We may share it only with:
- Affiliate networks & merchants – to confirm a purchase originated from our referral link so commissions can be validated
- Service providers – hosting, analytics, customer‑support, and security vendors who process data on our behalf under confidentiality agreements
- Legal authorities – when required to comply with law, enforce our rights, or protect users’ safety
- Successors – if we undergo a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, in which case users will be notified before data is transferred and becomes subject to a new policy
Cookies & Tracking Technologies
We use the following categories of cookies:
- Essential cookies – required for core functionality such as security and remembering settings
- Analytics cookies – help us understand how visitors engage with the Service (e.g., Google Analytics)
- Affiliate tracking cookies – set by third‑party networks (e.g., Impact, ShareASale) to attribute qualifying purchases to our site so we can earn commissions
- Preference cookies – save choices such as cookie‑consent status or display preferences
Most browsers allow you to disable or block cookies; however, parts of the Service may not function properly and affiliate links may not track purchases. You can adjust settings in your browser or use opt‑out tools provided by our analytics or affiliate partners.
Data Security
We implement administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal data against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.
These include HTTPS encryption, access controls, and periodic security reviews. Nevertheless, no internet transmission or storage system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Data Retention
We retain personal data only as long as necessary to:
- Provide and improve the Service
- Track and verify affiliate commissions
- Respond to queries and maintain records
- Comply with legal, tax, or accounting requirements
Retention periods vary depending on the type of data and our legal obligations. When data is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it.
Your Rights & Choices
Subject to local law, you may have rights to:
- Access the personal data we hold about you
- Correct inaccurate or incomplete data
- Request deletion of your data
- Restrict or object to certain processing
- Receive a portable copy of your data (data portability)
- Withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent
To exercise your rights, contact us using the details below. We will respond in accordance with applicable laws.
Children’s Privacy
The Service is not directed to children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13.
If you believe we have inadvertently collected such information, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technologies, or legal requirements.
If changes are material, we will provide prominent notice (e.g., via the Service or by email if you have provided it). The "last updated" date at the top indicates when the current version became effective.
