Privacy Policy

KicksUnderCost (“we,” “our,” or “us”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your choices.

Information We Collect

We do not require user accounts, collect personal information, or process form submissions. The data collected on this site is limited to anonymous usage analytics and cookies set by third-party services.

Analytics

We use the following analytics services to understand how visitors use our site:

• Vercel Web Analytics — Collects anonymous, privacy-friendly page view data including device type, browser, country, and referral source. Does not use cookies.
• Google Analytics (GA4) — Collects anonymous usage data such as pages visited, session duration, device and browser information, geographic region, and referral source. GA4 uses first-party cookies to distinguish unique visitors and track sessions. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Cookies

Our site uses a limited number of cookies:

• Analytics cookies — Set by Google Analytics to distinguish users and throttle request rate. These expire after 2 years of inactivity.
• Affiliate tracking cookies — When you click an outbound affiliate link (e.g., “Shop This Deal”), our affiliate partners (Impact Radius, Rakuten, Sovrn) may set cookies on the retailer's site to track the referral. These cookies are set by the third party, not by KicksUnderCost.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of some third-party services but will not impact your ability to browse our site.

Advertising

We may display advertisements via third-party ad networks such as Google AdSense. These services may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or aboutads.info.

Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your information to outside parties. Analytics data is used solely to improve our site and understand readership trends.

Third-Party Links

Our site contains links to third-party websites (retailers, brand sites, etc.). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these external sites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any personal information.

Children's Privacy

KicksUnderCost is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
