This policy explains how CheeklyPicks uses cookies and similar technologies (including browser local storage) on https://cheeklypicks.com. It should be read with our privacy policy.
Your choices

If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, we treat that as a request to disable analytics / sale-or-share style measurement and keep the analytics category off.
Categories we use

| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| PageView records | First-party database | Aggregate traffic paths to improve content—not to sell profiles. | Retained for operational analytics |
Amazon Associates
Product links may include an Associates tag so Amazon can attribute a referral after you leave CheeklyPicks. That attribution happens on Amazon’s domains under Amazon’s privacy practices—not through CheeklyPicks analytics cookies. See our affiliate disclosure.
Do not sell or share
We do not sell personal information, and we do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not currently run third-party advertising or analytics pixels on CheeklyPicks.
