Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how buyXwithY or BXWY ("we", "our", "us") collects, uses, and protects your personal data when you use our website and services. We are committed to protecting your privacy and only collecting the minimum amount of data required to provide a trustworthy and useful experience.

1. What We Collect

We do not collect personal data like names or emails unless you voluntarily provide them (e.g., through a contact form).

We collect:

Anonymous usage data (page visits, button clicks, article feedback)
Technical info such as device type, browser, and country (via Vercel Analytics and Google Analytics)
Anonymous demographic information (age range, gender, interests) via Google Analytics
Behavioral data (pages viewed, time on site, navigation patterns) for improving user experience
Outbound click behavior (which platform links are clicked, anonymously — we earn nothing from these clicks)
Optional community contributions (e.g., marking a seller as "verified")
A random per-tab identifier held in your browser's session storage, used only to tell one visitor's several outbound clicks apart from several visitors' single clicks. It is created only if you accept analytics cookies, is never linked to you or to any other visit, and is erased when you close the tab.

We use privacy-focused analytics with IP anonymization enabled. We do not track individual users across sessions or devices, nor do we use this data for ad personalization or cross-site tracking.

2. How We Use the Data

We use this data to:

Understand which content is most useful
Improve site performance and usability
Detect incorrect or outdated information
Count outbound clicks to platforms (to see which listings are useful)
Maintain site security and prevent abuse

3. Third-Party Services

We may use the following tools:

Vercel Analytics — Privacy-friendly, cookie-free performance monitoring
Google Analytics 4 — Anonymous demographic and behavioral analytics with IP anonymization, no cross-device tracking, and no ad personalization
Supabase — Database and authentication services

These tools may process technical information but do not collect personal data unless explicitly stated. Google Analytics is configured to prioritize user privacy by anonymizing IP addresses and disabling features like Google Signals and ad personalization.

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell or share your data with advertisers or third parties.

We may share anonymous, aggregated analytics (such as outbound click counts) with platforms to improve service quality.

5. Your Rights

You have the right to:

Request a copy of the data we have about you
Request deletion of any data you've submitted
Ask questions about how your data is used

To make a request, contact us at info@buyxwithy.com

6. Children's Privacy

buyXwithY is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone in this age group.

7. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our tools or legal obligations. Any major changes will be highlighted on our site.
