Cookie policy
This page explains what is stored on your device when you use Peachy Shopper, and what happens when you click through to a store. It sits alongside our privacy policy.
What we set ourselves
Very little. Peachy Shopper is a plain website with no advertising network, no behavioural tracking and no analytics product of our own.
| What | Why | How long |
|---|---|---|
| WordPress session and security cookies | Set only if someone signs in to administer the site. Ordinary readers never receive them. | Session, or up to 14 days for a signed-in administrator |
ps_cookie_ack (browser local storage, not a cookie) |
Remembers that you have seen the cookie notice so it stops appearing. | Until you clear your browser data |
| Your host’s caching and security cookies | Our hosting provider may set a cookie to serve pages quickly and block abusive traffic. | Short-lived |
We do not sell or share any of this, because there is nothing in it to sell. We do not build a profile of you and we cannot identify you from it.
What happens when you click through to a store
This is the part that matters on a coupon site, and most sites do not explain it.
When you select an offer you are passed to the store through an affiliate network. At that moment the network and the store set their own cookies in your browser to record that the visit came from Peachy Shopper. If you then buy something, that cookie is what tells the store to pay us. It usually lasts between one and thirty days depending on the store.
Those cookies are set by the network and the store, not by us, and are governed by their own privacy and cookie policies, which apply from the moment their page loads. We do not receive your name, email address, card details or basket contents — only anonymous confirmation from the network that a sale happened and what commission is due.
Third parties on our pages
| Who | What for | Their policy |
|---|---|---|
| Google Fonts | Serves the two typefaces the site uses; your browser requests the font files from Google’s servers. | policies.google.com/privacy |
| Hostinger | Hosts the site and provides its content delivery network. | hostinger.com/privacy-policy |
| Affiliate networks | Tracking a click through to a store, as described above. Nothing is set until you choose to go to a store. | Published on each network’s own site |
Turning cookies off
Nothing here breaks if you block cookies — you can read every page and see every code. The only consequence is that a store may not know your visit came from us, so we would not be paid for it. That is our problem rather than yours, and the choice is entirely yours.
Changes
If we ever add analytics or advertising, this page will be updated before it goes live and the notice will ask for consent rather than simply informing you.
