Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help sites function, remember preferences, measure traffic, and deliver relevant ads. We also use similar technologies like tracking pixels (tiny invisible images) for analytics and conversion measurement.

2. Cookies We Use

• Essential cookies — required for core site functionality such as navigation, search, and remembering your cookie consent choice. These cannot be disabled.
• Analytics cookies (Google Analytics) — measure visits, pages viewed, and site performance so we can improve content. IP anonymization is enabled where available.
• Advertising cookies (Google AdSense) — including Google's DoubleClick DART cookie — used to serve and personalize ads, limit how often you see an ad, and measure ad performance.
• Affiliate tracking cookies & pixels (Amazon Associates, Temu, AliExpress, CJ, Impact, ShareASale) — placed when you click an affiliate link so the merchant can credit us if you buy. These are typically set by the merchant/network domain.

3. Why We Use Them

Cookies keep this site free: advertising and affiliate commissions are how ShoppinMagic earns revenue without charging you anything or selling your data. Analytics cookies tell us which guides and products are genuinely useful so we can make more of them.

4. Your Choices & Cookie Management

• Consent banner — choose Accept All, Essential Only, or Decline on your first visit. To change your choice later, clear this site's data in your browser and the banner will reappear.
• Browser settings — block or delete cookies in Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge settings. Blocking all cookies may affect site functionality.
• Google Ads Settings — adssettings.google.com to disable personalized ads.
• Industry opt-outs — www.aboutads.info/choices and optout.networkadvertising.org.
• Google Analytics opt-out add-on — tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

5. GDPR & CCPA Compliance

For EEA/UK visitors (GDPR): non-essential cookies (analytics and advertising) are only activated after you give consent via our banner, and you may withdraw consent at any time. For California residents (CCPA/CPRA): we do not sell personal information; you may opt out of cookie-based sharing via the banner's "Essential Only" or "Decline" options. See our Privacy Policy for full details of your rights.
