Privacy Policy

Information we collect

• Account information: your name and email address when you create an account.
• Shopping activity: the shopping behaviors described in the next section — such as your searches, the products you view, save, watch, and compare, and the retailer links you click — plus your notification preferences.

Shopping Behavior Intelligence

To operate, personalize, analyze, secure, and improve MyPerkio, we collect first-party shopping behavior signals:

• Searches: the queries you run and the shopping intent we parse from them, including how many verified results they returned. Searches that return no results are also studied in aggregate to learn what products shoppers want that our current sources don't yet cover.
• Product views: the products and retailer offers you look at, the products you compare side by side, and your recently viewed products.
• Saved products and watchlists: products you save, and the products, searches, and target prices you ask us to watch for you.
• Product scans: barcodes or other product identifiers you scan, and any in-store shelf price you choose to enter.
• Find This Cheaper: the website domain of a product link you ask us to find a better price for. We don't store the full link or its contents.
• Retailer clicks: which offer and retailer you clicked, so we can measure and improve results.
• How you arrived: the referring website and any campaign tags (utm_*) from the link you first followed to MyPerkio, captured once per browsing session to understand which channels bring shoppers to us. We store only the referring site's name (or "direct") — never the full link — and nothing at all if you've opted out of personalization.
• How you move through the site: the sequence of page types you open in a session (for example home → search → product → cart), recorded once per session as coarse page types — never full URLs, query strings, or keystrokes — so we can understand common shopping paths in aggregate. Not recorded if you've opted out.
• Shopping preferences and learned personalization: with an account, we learn what you tend to shop for to personalize results and your shopping agent. Learned preferences are confidence-weighted and never permanent — they never override your explicit instructions, and you can review or clear them anytime in your account settings.

If you aren't signed in, these signals are associated only with a random browser session ID — never your name, email, or device identifiers. We combine these signals into aggregate, de-identified analytics. We do not sell your behavioral data, and we do not share your individual shopping history with anyone outside MyPerkio.

How we use your information

• To provide search results, product comparisons, and price tracking.
• To send price alerts and account-related emails you've requested. You can manage or turn off alerts anytime in your account settings.
• To personalize your experience — such as your results and your shopping agent — and to analyze, secure, and improve MyPerkio over time.

We do not sell your personal information.

Sharing with retailers and affiliate networks

MyPerkio earns commissions when you purchase through retailer links. When you click an offer, you leave our site and the retailer and its affiliate network receive information about your visit, subject to their own privacy policies. We never share your account email or watchlist data with retailers.

Product engagement & vendor insights

When you view a product, we may collect engagement signals such as time spent on the page, scroll depth, and where on the page your attention goes. This includes an attention heat grid: the time your cursor spends is bucketed into coarse grid cells of the page and accumulated per session, so we can show vendors which areas of a product page draw attention. We do not record exact pixel-by-pixel cursor trails, keystrokes, or screen recordings, and the heat grid is only ever used in aggregate across many shoppers — never to single you out. We also record your device type (mobile, tablet, or desktop). All of this is used to build aggregate, de-identified insights about how shoppers engage with products, and nothing is collected if you have turned off personalization.

With your explicit opt-in, we may also use your coarse age range, self-reported gender, and a broad region (derived from your browser time zone, never precise location) so these insights can be broken down by audience segment. These details are used only in aggregate and are never shared in a way that identifies you individually. You can turn this off or clear this data anytime in your account settings.

We share only aggregate, de-identified product insights with retailers and vendors to help them understand engagement with their products. We never share your individual behavioral records, account email, or watchlist data with vendors.

Cookies and sessions

We use standard session cookies to keep you signed in and remember your preferences. Some MyPerkio pages display advertising served by third-party advertising partners, and those partners may set their own cookies or similar identifiers to serve, measure, and limit the ads you see. You can block or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings.

Advertising partners

We work with third-party advertising partners to display paid advertising on MyPerkio. When an ad is served, our advertising partners may receive limited technical information about the request — such as your IP address, device and browser type, and the page the ad appeared on — so they can deliver the ad, measure its performance, and prevent fraud. We do not share your account email, your saved shopping history, or your watchlist data with advertising partners, and we do not use your individual shopping behavior to target advertising.

Your choices and rights

You can access, correct, or delete your account data — including your saved shopping behavior history — and opt out of email alerts at any time from your account settings or by contacting us.

Children

MyPerkio is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect their information.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the service evolves. Every version carries an effective date, a last-updated date, and a version number (shown at the top of this page), and material changes will be announced in the app. Your continued use after an update means you accept the revised policy.
