This page was drafted for a site run from South Africa serving a largely US and European readership. It is a plain-language starting point, not a lawyer's work. Before this site accepts real traffic it should be reviewed against the rules that actually apply to it — at minimum the FTC endorsement guides for affiliate disclosure, UK and EU consumer and cookie rules, and South Africa's POPIA. Do not treat the wording below as compliant until someone qualified has said so.
What we collect
Analytics. We use privacy-respecting aggregate analytics to see which pages are read and which search queries bring people here. This records page URLs, referrers, approximate country, and device type. It is not used to build a profile of you and it is not sold or shared.
Affiliate links. When you click a link to a vendor, that vendor's affiliate network may set a cookie in your browser so they can attribute a later signup to us. That cookie is set by the vendor or their network, not by us, and is governed by their privacy policy. Cookie lifetimes vary by vendor, typically from 30 to 180 days. We never receive your name, email or payment details from these networks — only aggregate reports of whether a referral converted.
Email. If you write to us, we keep your message so we can reply and follow up on corrections. We do not add you to a mailing list because you emailed us.
What we do not collect
We do not run advertising networks or ad retargeting pixels. We do not sell, rent or share personal data. We do not require an account. We do not use session recording, heatmaps or similar surveillance tooling.
Your choices
You can block cookies in your browser; the site works normally without them. You can reach every vendor we mention by typing their address directly instead of using our links — you will get the same price, and we will earn nothing.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, export or delete personal data we hold about you, and to object to processing. Email the address on our contact page and we will action it.
Children
This site is aimed at people buying business software. It is not directed at children and we do not knowingly collect data from them.
