1. What information we collect

Automatically collected. When you visit, our analytics records non-identifying technical data: pages viewed, time on page, approximate location derived from IP (country/city level), referring page, browser type, and device type. We do not store full IP addresses in a form that identifies you personally.

Information you give us. If you email us or submit a form, we receive your email address and the content of your message. If you post in a comment section, the comment platform receives whatever name and text you choose to submit.

What we do NOT collect. We do not ask for or store payment card details, government identification numbers, passwords, or financial account information. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13.

2. Why we use it

To understand which articles are useful, to fix problems, to reply to your messages, and to measure whether a referral we sent to a vendor resulted in a sign-up. We do not use your data for automated decision-making or profiling.

3. How we protect it

The Site is served over HTTPS, so traffic between your browser and the Site is encrypted in transit. Access to analytics dashboards and our email inbox is restricted to authorised personnel and protected by strong, unique passwords with two-factor authentication where the provider supports it. We keep the amount of personal data we hold to the minimum needed, and we delete email correspondence once it is no longer required.

4. Cookies and similar technologies

We use basic analytics cookies to count visits. Affiliate networks whose links you click may set their own cookies to attribute a referral. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; the Site remains readable without them.

5. Do we share your information with third parties?

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data to anyone.

We share limited data only with service providers that make the Site work, and only for that purpose:

We may also disclose information if required to do so by law or valid legal process.

When you click a link that leaves the Site, the destination operates under its own privacy policy, which we do not control.

6. Your rights

You may ask us what personal data we hold about you, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. Email us at hello@fitgearverdict.com and we will respond within a reasonable period.

7. Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, we update the "Last updated" date above. Material changes will be described on this page.
