Privacy Policy

The short version

CompareUnitPrices doesn't require an account, doesn't use tracking cookies, and doesn't sell or share your data. The only personal information we collect is an email address, and only if you choose to give us one — either to get a price-drop alert on a specific product, or to hear once when the site's live-pricing feature launches.

What we collect

• Email address — only if you submit the "notify me when this drops" form on a product page, or the launch-notification signup. Each is stored with the specific product/target price (for alerts) or nothing else (for the launch signup).
• Search terms — what you type into the search/compare box, along with whether it returned results. We use this only in aggregate, to see which products people are looking for that we don't carry yet. It isn't linked to your email or any other identifying information.

We don't collect passwords, payment information, or physical addresses — you never create an account here, and every purchase happens on the retailer's own site (see below).

How we use it

Strictly to send the specific email you asked for: a one-time price-drop alert, or a one-time launch notification. We don't send marketing email, and we don't share, sell, or rent your email address to anyone.

Cookies and tracking

CompareUnitPrices itself doesn't set tracking cookies or use third-party analytics/advertising scripts. Our affiliate links, however, let a retailer or its affiliate network (for example Amazon, or the eBay Partner Network for eBay links) recognize that a purchase came from this site. When you click one, that retailer or network may set cookies or use similar tracking technology on its own pages to credit us for a qualifying purchase — that happens on their site, under their policies, and you can block or clear those cookies in your browser settings. See the retailer's own privacy policy for details.

Like any website, our hosting provider (Cloudflare) processes technical data such as your IP address and browser type in order to deliver the site and protect it from abuse.

Who processes it

Data is stored on Cloudflare's infrastructure (our hosting and database provider) and emails are sent through Resend (our email delivery provider). Both act strictly as processors on our behalf — neither uses your data for their own purposes.

Affiliate links

As an Amazon Associate we earn from qualifying purchases made through links on this site, at no extra cost to you. We also participate in the eBay Partner Network, so where we link to eBay listings we may earn from qualifying purchases there too, again at no extra cost to you. Clicking a product link doesn't share your email or search history with the retailer — it's just a normal, tagged outbound link.

Where we show eBay listing information, it comes from eBay and is displayed as provided; we don't collect or store personal information about eBay users, and we don't keep copies of eBay listing data beyond what's needed to display it.

Your choices

Price-drop alerts stop automatically once they fire. To have any stored email address deleted sooner, or to ask what we have on file, email hello@compareunitprices.com and we'll take care of it.

Children

This site isn't directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect information from them.

Changes to this policy

If what we collect or how we use it changes, we'll update this page and the date above.
