Privacy Policy

Effective date: [today’s date]

This Privacy Policy explains how Drill Right (“we,” “us,” “our”) collects, uses, and protects your information when you visit https://drillright.online (the “Site”) or contact us at [email protected].

Information We Collect

  • Usage Data: pages viewed, referring URLs, timestamps, and approximate location derived from IP address.
  • Device/Technical Data: browser type/version, OS, screen size, and anonymized identifiers or cookies.
  • Communications: content of emails you send to us and metadata required to deliver responses.
  • Forms & Subscriptions: information you provide for newsletters, price alerts, or recommendations (e.g., email, platform preferences, materials).
  • Affiliate Interaction Data: clicks on outbound retailer links and anonymized transaction attribution necessary to determine if a purchase occurred after your click.

How We Use Information

  • Provide and improve the Site, content, and test reporting.
  • Respond to inquiries and deliver requested resources (e.g., price alerts, recommendations).
  • Analyze site performance, detect abuse, and maintain security.
  • Measure affiliate link performance and maintain financial records.
  • Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.

Legal Bases (EEA/UK)

We process personal data under one or more of the following legal bases: consent, contract performance, legitimate interests (e.g., site security, analytics), legal obligation, and vital interests where applicable.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • Remember preferences and manage sessions (strictly necessary cookies).
  • Perform analytics to improve content and usability.
  • Track affiliate link attribution so retailers can confirm a qualifying purchase.

Your Choices: most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Blocking some cookies may limit functionality. Where required, we display a consent banner and honor your selections.

Affiliate Disclosure

Some links on our Site are affiliate links. If you click and purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Affiliate relationships do not influence our testing methods or recommendations. We link to retailers because they carry the products and offer reliable fulfillment; we do not accept payment for favorable coverage. We may receive anonymized data confirming that a purchase occurred after an outbound click so we can attribute commissions and keep the Site running.

Data Retention

We keep analytics and server logs for a period appropriate to security and trend analysis needs. Communications and form submissions are retained as long as necessary to support you and maintain records, unless a longer retention is required by law.

Sharing and Processors

We do not sell your personal information. We share data with service providers who process it on our behalf, such as hosting, analytics, email delivery, and affiliate platforms. These providers are contractually bound to appropriate confidentiality and security obligations. We may also share information where required by law or to protect our rights and users.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure; we continuously improve our controls.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or port your data; to object to or restrict certain processing; and to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent. To exercise these rights, contact [email protected]. You may also lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

Children’s Privacy

The Site is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent age in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.

International Transfers

If we transfer your information outside your country, we use appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses where required by law.

Do Not Track

We currently do not respond to browser “Do Not Track” signals. You can manage cookie preferences via our banner (where applicable) and your browser settings.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Policy from time to time. The updated version will be posted with a new effective date.
