Privacy

In short: no cookies, no ad trackers, no selling data. We count visits anonymously and only store your email if you sign up for the newsletter.

Analytics

We use Plausible Analytics, a privacy-friendly service that doesn’t use cookies or collect personal data. It records aggregate information such as which pages are visited, the referring site, and the country and device type of visitors. It does not track you across sites.

When you click a link to a retailer, we record an anonymous “Affiliate Click” event with the link, the brand and the page it was on, so we know which guides are useful. This isn’t tied to you.

Affiliate links and retailers

When you follow a link to a retailer, you leave Hamesbest. That retailer, and any affiliate network involved, may set its own cookies to credit the referral. Their privacy policies apply on their sites. See ouraffiliate disclosure.

Newsletter

If you subscribe to The Sunday Edit, we store your email address with our newsletter provider only to send it. Every email has a one-click unsubscribe link, and we delete your address on request.

Hosting

The site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Like any web host, Cloudflare processes technical data such as IP addresses to deliver pages and protect against abuse.

Your rights and contact

To ask what we hold about you, or to have it deleted, email privacy@hamesbest.com.
