Privacy policy

Information and cookies

HomeGearLab and its service providers process technical information such as your IP address, browser, device, pages visited, and referral information to operate the site and understand usage. If you submit a device, we receive the details and email address you provide to review your submission. Cookies and similar technologies may store identifiers and preferences.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 to measure page visits and interactions, including outbound affiliate clicks. Click events include the product or page name, merchant hostname, and destination URL. Google may use cookies and process device and usage information. We do not intentionally include email addresses or other customer identifiers in these events.

You can block analytics cookies in your browser or use Google's Analytics opt-out browser add-on. Browser settings can also delete existing cookies.

Advertising and Google AdSense

Google AdSense is not currently active on HomeGearLab. If activated, Google and other advertising vendors may use cookies and similar technologies to measure advertising and personalize ads based on visits to this and other websites. AdSense requests are blocked in regions requiring advertising consent and when your region cannot be determined until a suitable consent choice is available. Supported browser privacy signals are also respected.

You can manage Google's personalized advertising at Google Ad Settings. Blocking or deleting cookies in your browser is another way to limit tracking. Advertising choices do not necessarily disable analytics, which has separate controls.

Affiliate partners

We participate in Amazon Associates and use Impact partner links and tracking. These services may receive referral and impression information and use cookies or similar identifiers to attribute purchases or referrals. Clicking an affiliate link takes you to another company's website, where its privacy policy applies. We may earn a commission without an additional charge to you. See our affiliate disclosure.

Your choices

You can adjust browser cookie permissions, delete saved cookies, use the opt-out links above, or choose not to follow affiliate links. Service providers retain data according to their own settings and policies. This policy will be updated when our use of these services changes.
