Privacy
Published We may earn a commission if you buy through links on this page
This site keeps a simple record of how it is used, so we can tell which pages help people and which links they follow. It sets no cookies and never records anything you type.
Garage Compared runs this site. Questions about it, or about these records, can go to contact@garagecompared.com.
What is recorded
For each visit, the site records:
- the pages you open, the name of the site that sent you (such as a search engine) and any campaign label in the link you followed;
- the links you follow: where a link leads, without anything after a "?" in it, and for a check-price link, which product and which store;
- how long each page stays open, and how far down it you scroll;
- your country, worked out from your connection. Your IP address is not stored;
- whether the visit came from a crawler, such as a search engine's;
- a random visit number, so the pages of one visit can be counted together.
The visit number is kept in your browser only while the tab is open, and it is gone when you close the tab. It is not a cookie, and it is never linked to a later visit.
If your browser asks not to be tracked
If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control or Do Not Track signal, the page reports nothing. The server still notes each page your browser asks for, with the site that sent you and any campaign label, but not your country.
Who keeps the records
Cloudflare hosts this site and stores the records. They are deleted automatically after three months. They are never sold or used for advertising.
Stores you visit from here
A check-price link takes you to a store, sometimes through an affiliate network. The store or the network may set its own cookies so that a purchase is credited to this site. Their privacy policies cover what they collect.
