Cookie Policy

Last updated

This policy explains what cookies CouponReals sets, what they are for, and how you can control them. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy, which covers personal data more broadly.

What a cookie is

A cookie is a small text file that a website asks your browser to store. It is sent back to that website on later visits, which is how a site can remember things between page loads. Related technologies — local storage, session storage and tracking pixels — do a similar job, and everything on this page applies to them too.

Cookies we use

Type What it does Can you turn it off?
Strictly necessary Keeps your session working, remembers that you dismissed a notice, and protects forms against cross-site request forgery. No — the site cannot function without these.
Preferences Remembers choices you made, such as a saved search or a dismissed banner, so you do not have to make them again. Yes.
Analytics Tells us, in aggregate, which pages are used and where people give up. We use this to decide what to fix. Yes.
Affiliate tracking Set by a retailer or affiliate network after you click through to a store, so the retailer can attribute the visit to us. See our Disclosure Policy. Yes, but blocking them may break a discount that is applied via the referral link.

Third-party cookies

Some cookies are not set by us. When you follow a link to a retailer, that retailer and its affiliate network set their own cookies under their own policies, and we have no access to them. Embedded content, such as an advertisement or a widget, may do the same. Those cookies are governed by the privacy policy of whoever set them.

How to control cookies

Every major browser lets you see the cookies a site has stored, delete them, and refuse new ones — usually under Settings → Privacy. You can also browse in a private or incognito window, which discards cookies when the window closes.

Blocking all cookies will break parts of this site and of most other sites. Blocking only third-party cookies is a good middle ground, and is the default in several browsers already.

Changes to this policy

We update this page when the cookies we use change. The date at the top of the page is the date of the most recent change.
