Effective Date: June 1, 2025

At SweepValet ("we", "our", or "us"), your privacy matters. This Privacy Policy explains how and when we collect, use, share, and protect personal information from users ("you") when you visit our website and use our AI-powered shopping assistant services ("SweepValet" or the "Service").

By using SweepValet, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy, including the collection and use of your information as outlined here.

1. What This Privacy Policy Covers

This policy governs the handling of both personal and non-personal information we gather through your use of the SweepValet website and any related services or features. It applies to any information you submit directly, as well as information automatically collected when you interact with the Service.

We explain:

• What types of information we collect (and how)
• Why we collect it
• How we use and share it
• Your rights and choices
• How we store and secure your data

If you do not agree with our practices, your choice is to not use SweepValet.

2. Information We Collect

SweepValet collects two main types of information: personal information and non-personal (technical or behavioral) information.

2.1. Personal Information

Personal Information refers to information that can be used to identify or contact you directly. You may voluntarily provide this to us through contact forms, feedback features, referral links, or other communication tools on the site. This includes:

• Your name
• Your email address
• Any message or content you submit

Providing personal information is optional, but refusing to provide certain information may limit your ability to use specific features of SweepValet.

2.2. Non-Personal Information

We also automatically collect certain technical data and usage information when you interact with SweepValet. This data does not, by itself, identify you personally and includes:

• Your browser type and settings
• Your device's operating system
• The pages you visit and the time you spend on them
• The links you click
• Referring URLs (where you came from)
• Your general location (e.g., city-level IP geolocation)
• Other diagnostic data about how you interact with the site

This information helps us understand user behavior and improve the Service.

3. How We Collect Information

3.1. Information You Provide Voluntarily

When you submit information to us—such as through a feedback form, support request, or referral submission—you're giving us personal data. We store this information securely and use it only for the purposes stated at the time of collection.

You may also voluntarily subscribe to updates, respond to surveys, or contact us with questions, all of which provide data we may store to enhance your user experience and better understand our audience.

3.2. Information We Collect Automatically

When you visit SweepValet, we automatically collect certain information through tools like cookies, log files, and analytics providers. This includes how long you stay on a page, which products you click on, and what content you interact with.

This automatic collection enables us to:

• Track aggregate usage trends
• Improve site performance and reliability
• Customize content and recommendations

We also track affiliate link activity (via Amazon's tracking systems) to determine if a user completes a purchase, which is necessary for us or our users to earn commissions.

4. Use of Cookies and Similar Technologies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device that allow us to recognize your browser and remember certain information. We use cookies to support essential functionality and to analyze how you use SweepValet.

Types of Cookies We Use:

• Essential Cookies: These are necessary for SweepValet to function. Without them, key features like affiliate tracking may not work.
• Performance Cookies: These help us understand how users navigate the site so we can improve it.
• Functionality Cookies: These remember user preferences, such as region or language.
• Affiliate and Targeting Cookies: These are used by third parties (such as Amazon) to track purchases after you click affiliate links.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. However, disabling them may affect how the Service works.

5. How We Use the Information We Collect

SweepValet uses collected information in the following ways:

• To provide and improve the Service: We use data to deliver product suggestions and Amazon search results based on your input and activity.
• To analyze user behavior: Usage data helps us improve design, performance, and product relevance.
• To operate the affiliate program: We track clicks on Amazon links to monitor commissions earned and to support referral tracking.
• To respond to inquiries or feedback: If you contact us, we use your information to reply and resolve issues.
• To comply with legal obligations: We may retain and use your data to meet regulatory requirements or enforce our terms.

We do not use your personal data to serve ads, and we do not sell your data to any third party.

6. Sharing Your Information

SweepValet only shares data in limited circumstances:

• With Amazon (via affiliate tracking): When you click an Amazon link, Amazon may track your behavior through cookies to attribute purchases correctly. We do not control Amazon's data practices.
• With service providers: We may share information with trusted third-party vendors who help us run the site, including hosting, analytics, and customer support providers.
• With legal authorities (when required): We may disclose information if legally required to comply with a court order or government investigation.

We never sell your personal information to third parties.

7. Data Storage and Retention

We store data on secure servers located in the United States. We retain your personal information for as long as it is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it was collected, or to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or enforce agreements.

If you request account deletion or data removal, we will securely delete your personal data unless legal or regulatory reasons require us to retain it.

8. Security Measures

SweepValet uses commercially reasonable security measures to protect your data against loss, misuse, and unauthorized access. This includes:

• Secure server infrastructure
• HTTPS encryption for data transmission
• Access controls and authentication

Despite these safeguards, no website or internet transmission is completely secure. By using our Service, you acknowledge that you do so at your own risk.

10. Children's Privacy

SweepValet is not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we learn that we have collected information from a child under 13, we will promptly delete it. Parents or guardians who believe their child may have submitted information should contact us immediately.

11. Business Transfers

If SweepValet is involved in a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you before your personal data is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

12. Third-Party Links and Services

SweepValet contains links to third-party websites, such as Amazon.com. These third-party sites have their own privacy policies. We are not responsible for the content, security, or data practices of these external sites. You should review their policies before engaging with them.
