Privacy Policy

Learn how TechKnuckles handles visitor data, analytics, and affiliate attribution responsibly.

At TechKnuckles, accessible from techknuckles.com, one of our main priorities is the privacy of our visitors. This Privacy Policy document contains types of information that is collected and recorded by TechKnuckles and how we use it.

1. Information We Collect

We collect minimal data necessary to improve your experience and analyze site traffic. This includes:

  • Log Files: IP addresses, browser type, ISP, date/time stamp, referring/exit pages, and number of clicks. This data is not linked to any information that is personally identifiable.
  • Cookies: We use cookies to store information about visitors' preferences and the pages on the website that the visitor accessed or visited.

2. Affiliate Tracking

When you click on an affiliate link on our site, a cookie is placed on your device to track the referral. This allows the merchant (e.g., Amazon) to know that you came from TechKnuckles, so we can earn a commission.

These cookies typically expire after 24 hours to 30 days, depending on the merchant. We do not receive any personal information about your purchase (e.g., your name, address, or credit card number) from these merchants.

3. Google AdSense & Advertising

TechKnuckles uses Google AdSense to show display advertisements. Google AdSense uses cookies (such as __gads, __gpi, IDE, and DSID) to serve ads that are relevant to you based on your browsing activity. These cookies are set by Google and governed by Google's Privacy Policy.

If you accept cookies via our consent banner, Google may use your data to show personalized ads. If you decline, non-personalized ads may still appear but will not use cookies for targeting. You can manage your ad preferences at Google Ad Settings.

4. Third-Party Privacy Policies

TechKnuckles's Privacy Policy does not apply to other advertisers or websites. Thus, we are advising you to consult the respective Privacy Policies of these third-party services for more detailed information.
