1) Who We Are

Affimax Store (“Affimax”, “we”, “our”, “us”) operates the website affimaxstore.com (and any related pages hosted on affimaxstore.blogspot.com).

Controller/Owner: Affimax Store • Email: contact@affimaxstore.com

2) Scope

This notice explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect information when you visit our site or interact with affiliate links directing you to third-party marketplaces such as Amazon or AliExpress.

3) Information We Collect

• Information you provide (optional): contact form details (name, email, message).
• Usage data: pages viewed, device/browser type, approximate location (city/region), time on page, referring URLs.
• Cookies & similar tech: first-party cookies (site preferences, analytics) and third-party cookies/pixels for measurement and advertising (see §6–§7).

4) How We Use Information

• To operate, maintain, and secure the website
• To analyze traffic and improve content
• To display product recommendations and track affiliate attribution
• To comply with legal obligations and respond to requests

5) Affiliate Disclosure

Amazon Associates: Affimax Store participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. This affiliate advertising program allows websites to earn fees by linking to Amazon domains (e.g., Amazon.com, Amazon.ca). When you click an Amazon link and complete a purchase, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.

AliExpress Affiliate Program: We may participate in the AliExpress/Alibaba affiliate program(s). When you click an AliExpress link and complete a purchase, cookies or similar identifiers may track the referral to attribute commissions to us.

We do not receive your full payment details or order history from these marketplaces. Your transactions are processed on the third-party site under their own privacy policies and terms.

6) Advertising & Analytics Partners

• Google AdSense / Ads (where enabled): for contextual and/or interest-based ads.
• Analytics (e.g., Google Analytics or similar): to understand aggregated site performance and content engagement.
• Affiliate networks (e.g., Amazon Associates, AliExpress affiliates, other networks if applicable): to measure referrals and commissions.

These partners may set cookies or read device identifiers to serve/measure ads or track referrals. See “Your Choices” below to control cookies and interest-based advertising.

7) Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Cookies are small files placed on your device. We use:

• Strictly necessary cookies: site security, load balancing, basic preferences.
• Analytics cookies: traffic measurement and performance.
• Advertising/affiliate cookies: to show ads or track affiliate purchases after you click a link.

You can manage non-essential cookies anytime via Your Privacy Choices and through your browser settings.

8) Do We “Sell” or “Share” Personal Information?

Under certain U.S. state laws (e.g., California CPRA), disclosing identifiers for cross-context behavioral advertising may be considered “sharing,” and some disclosures could be deemed a “sale.”

• We do not sell your personal information in the traditional sense (no exchange for money).
• We may share limited identifiers (e.g., cookie/device IDs) with advertising/affiliate partners for measurement and interest-based ads. You can opt out of sale/sharing (CPRA) and targeted advertising (other state laws) using the controls below.

9) Your Rights (U.S.)

If you reside in certain U.S. states (including CA, CO, CT, UT, VA), you may have rights to:

• Access, correct, or delete personal information we hold
• Opt out of sale/sharing or targeted advertising
• Limit use of sensitive personal information (where applicable)
• Appeal a decision if we decline a request (where applicable)

To exercise rights, email contact@affimaxstore.com with the subject “Privacy Request,” or use Your Privacy Choices. We will verify your request and respond as required by law.

Global Privacy Control (GPC): if your browser signals GPC, we will treat it as a request to opt out of sale/sharing where required.

10) Your Rights (Canada)

Residents of Canada (PIPEDA and applicable provincial laws) may request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information, and may withdraw consent for non-essential processing. Contact us at contact@affimaxstore.com.

11) Data Retention

We keep information only as long as necessary for the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law (e.g., tax, compliance).

12) Children’s Privacy

Our site is not directed to children under 13 (U.S.) or under 14 (Canada). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child provided information, contact us to delete it.

13) Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical measures to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.

14) Third-Party Sites

Links to Amazon, AliExpress, and other third parties are subject to their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review those policies before submitting information or completing purchases.

15) Your Privacy Choices
