Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how HearingAidReviews, an affiliate-supported review and comparison site operated by Exceptional Solutions LLC, collects, uses, and shares information when visitors use the website. It applies to information collected through pages, forms, ads, and related tracking technologies. This policy does not cover third-party websites that may be linked from the site, and their privacy practices may differ.
The site publishes reviews, comparisons, and informational content. As with many affiliate-supported sites, some links may lead to third-party merchants or partners. That structure can involve click tracking and referral attribution, which is described below.
Information We Collect
The site may collect information you provide directly and information gathered automatically when you browse the site. This can include:
- Contact form submissions, such as name, email address, message content, and any details included in your inquiry.
- Cookies and similar tracking technologies used for analytics, preferences, and advertising measurement.
- Analytics data, including page views, referral paths, session activity, and engagement with content.
- Ad-platform click IDs and attribution data such as gclid, msclkid, wbraid, and gbraid when present in a visit.
- Referrer information showing how a visitor arrived at the site.
- Device, browser, operating system, IP address, and similar technical information.
Some of this information is collected automatically by the site or by service providers acting on its behalf. The amount and type of data collected may vary depending on browser settings, consent choices, and how the visitor interacts with the site.
How We Use Information
Information is used to operate and improve the site, measure performance, and respond to inquiries. This may include site analytics, conversion tracking, and reviewing how visitors move through pages and outbound links. Contact form submissions are used to respond to requests, questions, or feedback.
Some data may also support fraud prevention, debugging, and basic security monitoring. In affiliate contexts, click and referral data may be used to confirm that a visit originated from the site and to help determine whether an affiliate commission is due. Results vary based on the partner program and tracking setup.
Third Parties
The site may share information with service providers and advertising or affiliate partners that help run the website. These third parties may collect or receive information under their own privacy policies:
- Google Ads, which may use cookies and conversion tags for advertising measurement.
- Microsoft Ads, which may use click identifiers and related attribution tools.
- Affiliate networks such as MaxBounty, DFO Performance, ClickBank, MaxWeb, and BuyGoods, which may track referrals and conversions.
- The hosting provider, which may process server logs, security data, and technical requests.
- The email provider, which may process messages sent through contact channels and store associated metadata.
These third parties may act as separate controllers or processors depending on the context. Their collection and use of information can differ from the practices described here, and visitors should review those providers’ own policies for details.
Cookies & Similar Technologies
The site uses cookies, pixels, tags, and similar technologies to support essential functions, analytics, and ad measurement. Cookies may remember preferences, help understand how pages are used, and assist with affiliate attribution. Some cookies are set by the site directly, while others may be set by service providers or advertising platforms.
Visitors can usually control cookies through browser settings and, where available, consent tools. Blocking or deleting cookies may affect site functionality, limit analytics accuracy, or interfere with referral tracking. Individual experiences may differ depending on browser and device settings.
Your Rights
Depending on where a visitor lives, privacy laws may provide rights to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of personal information. Visitors may also have the right to opt out of targeted advertising or certain data-sharing practices. Under GDPR or CCPA, where applicable, additional rights and disclosures may apply.
Requests may be subject to verification and legal exceptions. Some data may be retained or shared as required to comply with law, resolve disputes, maintain security, or support legitimate business operations. Opt-out mechanisms for targeted advertising may also be available through platform settings or browser controls.
Data Retention
Personal information is retained only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law. Contact form submissions may be retained to maintain correspondence records and handle follow-up questions. Analytics, log, and referral data may be stored for varying periods depending on the provider and the operational need.
When information is no longer needed, it may be deleted, anonymized, or archived in accordance with internal practices and legal obligations. Retention periods can differ by data type, service provider, and applicable law.
Contact for Privacy Requests
Privacy requests, including access, deletion, or advertising opt-out questions, may be sent by email to info@empoweringoffers.com. Please include enough information to identify the request and the relevant site activity. Responses may require additional verification before action is taken.
