3. Third-Party Services
We use third-party services that may collect anonymized data:
- Google Analytics (GA4). We use GA4 to understand how visitors find and use our site. GA4 collects anonymized data including pages visited, time on site, referring URLs, and general geographic location. GA4 does not collect personally identifiable information by default. Google's privacy policy: policies.google.com/privacy.
- Google Search Console. We use GSC to monitor search performance. GSC provides aggregated search query data, not individual user data.
- Affiliate Links. Some links on this site are affiliate links. When you click an affiliate link, the affiliate platform (PartnerStack, Rewardful, or the vendor's own system) may place a cookie to track the referral. These cookies are set by the affiliate platform, not by TradeSoftwareLab.
4. Cookies
TradeSoftwareLab itself does not set cookies. Third-party services (Google Analytics, affiliate platforms) may set cookies as described above. You can disable cookies in your browser settings.
5. Affiliate Disclosure
TradeSoftwareLab participates in affiliate programs including PartnerStack, Rewardful, and vendor-specific programs. When you click an affiliate link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission. This does not affect the price you pay. Our reviews and rankings are independent of affiliate relationships.
6. Data Retention
Since we do not collect personal data directly, we do not retain any personal data. Google Analytics data is retained according to our GA4 settings (standard 14-month retention).
7. Your Rights
Under GDPR (EU/EEA residents), CCPA (California residents), and similar regulations, you have rights regarding your personal data. Since we do not collect personal data directly, there is typically no personal data for us to provide, correct, or delete. For data collected by third parties (Google Analytics), please refer to their respective privacy policies for opt-out instructions.
