The fine print, without the fog

Privacy Policy

The Price Dude helps visitors find verified Amazon deals. This policy explains what information we handle when you contact us, browse or interact with deals, use the site, or follow an affiliate link.

Last updated September 11, 2026.

01 / Contact information

Contact information you provide

If you email or otherwise contact The Price Dude, we receive the information you choose to send, such as your email address, name, message, and any details you include. Please avoid sending sensitive information unless it is needed to resolve your question.

If you choose to register for an account, the account flow may also handle your name, email address, and password information for authentication. Passwords are stored in the protected form needed by the sign-in system; they are not treated as readable messages for the team.

02 / Deal interaction data

What happens when you follow a deal

When you follow a qualifying deal link, the site records the deal ID, the retailer, and the time of that interaction. It also increments the deal's aggregate click count and redirects you to the retailer.

The current deal interaction record does not include your IP address, precise location, or a behavioral profile. The retailer may handle additional information after you leave The Price Dude; see “Affiliate links” below.

03 / Cookies and analytics

Cookies and similar analytics

The site may use cookies or similar browser technologies. When platform analytics is enabled, the root shell creates a browser-local polsia_vid identifier in local storage and sends a page-view beacon containing the deployment slug and visitor ID.

Browser settings, privacy controls, and extensions may limit this activity. Availability and configuration can change with the platform settings; this policy does not promise that cookies or analytics are never used.

05 / Purpose

How information is used

We may use the information described here to operate and improve the site, show and maintain deal listings, understand aggregate deal activity, respond to messages, support account access, investigate misuse, and meet applicable operational or legal obligations. We use it only as reasonably connected to those purposes and the context in which it was provided.

06 / Sharing

Sharing and service providers

We may share information with service providers that help host, secure, operate, authenticate, analyze, or support the site, and when disclosure is reasonably necessary to comply with law, protect the site, or address abuse. We do not use this policy to promise a fixed vendor list; the providers and platform settings supporting the site may change over time.

07 / Limits

Security and retention limits

We use reasonable measures intended to protect information in the systems we control. No online service can guarantee absolute security. We retain information for as long as reasonably needed for the purposes above, account operation, dispute handling, security, or legal obligations; the repository does not define a single retention period for every type of information.

08 / Your choices

Your choices and questions

You can choose what to include when contacting us, manage local storage and cookies through your browser, and use browser privacy tools or extensions that limit analytics. If you have an account or a question about information you sent us, contact the team and describe your request so we can review what is practical and appropriate for the situation.

09 / Updates

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the site, its features, or its service providers change. The revised version will be posted at this URL with a new update date. Continuing to use the site after an update means you are viewing the revised policy.
