3. Cookies and tracking

WCIbuy.com uses the following types of cookies:

Essential cookies

Required for the site to function — session management, security, and your saved preferences. These cannot be disabled.

Analytics cookies

We use analytics tools to understand how visitors use the site — which pages are popular, where users come from, and how they navigate. This data is aggregated and anonymous.

Affiliate tracking cookies

When you click a product link on WCIbuy, a cookie is set by our affiliate network (CJ Affiliate, Amazon Associates, or the relevant merchant network) to track whether you make a purchase. This is how we earn commissions. See Section 4 for full details.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling affiliate tracking cookies will not affect your ability to make purchases, but it does mean we won't earn a commission on your purchase.

4. Affiliate tracking disclosure

WCIbuy.com is an affiliate publisher. When you click a "Buy" link or merchant link on our site:

  • You are redirected to the merchant's website via an affiliate tracking URL
  • The affiliate network (e.g. CJ Affiliate, Amazon Associates) sets a cookie in your browser
  • If you make a purchase within the cookie window, WCIbuy earns a commission from the merchant
  • The price you pay is never affected by our affiliate relationship

We embed a sub-ID in every affiliate link containing an anonymous session identifier. This allows us to track which pages and searches generated affiliate commissions — it does not contain any personally identifiable information.

Our affiliate partners include CJ Affiliate, Amazon Associates, and other networks. Each network has its own privacy policy governing how they handle tracking data.

5. Information sharing

We share information only in the following circumstances:

  • Affiliate networks: Click and conversion data is shared with CJ Affiliate, Amazon Associates, and other affiliate networks we participate in, for the purpose of commission tracking.
  • Analytics providers: Aggregated, anonymized usage data is shared with analytics tools.
  • Legal requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or government authority.
  • Business transfers: If WCIbuy or Public Access Media is acquired or merged, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party for their marketing purposes.
