Privacy Policy

We collect minimal information from visitors. Specifically:

• Analytics data: When you visit the Site, our analytics service (Google Analytics or similar) automatically collects standard web analytics data including IP address, browser type, pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring website. This data is used in aggregate to understand site traffic patterns and improve content.
• Contact form submissions: If you use our contact form or email us directly, we collect the information you provide (name, email address, message content). This information is used solely to respond to your inquiry.
• Cookies and similar technologies: We use cookies for analytics and to remember user preferences. See the "Cookies" section below for details.

We do NOT collect:

• Payment information (we don't sell anything directly)
• Account credentials (the Site doesn't require accounts)
• Health information or other sensitive data
• Information from children under 13

The information we collect is used to:

• Operate and maintain the Site
• Improve content based on aggregate analytics
• Respond to contact form submissions and emails
• Comply with legal obligations
• Detect and prevent abuse or security issues

We do NOT use your information for:

• Selling to third parties
• Direct marketing to individual visitors

The Site uses cookies for analytics and functional purposes. Specifically:

• Analytics cookies (Google Analytics or similar): Track aggregate site usage. These can be disabled by browser settings or by using a privacy-focused browser extension.
• Functional cookies: Remember preferences (e.g., dark mode if implemented, dismissed notifications).
• Affiliate tracking cookies: When you click an Amazon affiliate link from this Site, Amazon may set cookies that track your subsequent activity on Amazon. These cookies are set by Amazon, not by us, and are governed by Amazon's privacy policy.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect Site functionality.

This Site participates in the Amazon Associates Program. We earn commissions on qualifying purchases made through Amazon affiliate links. When you click an Amazon link from our Site:

• Amazon may track your activity on amazon.com via cookies they set
• We do not see your individual purchase information
• We do receive aggregate commission reports from Amazon (total commissions, not individual transactions)

The Site may also link to other third-party websites. Once you leave qualitygrillparts.com, your activity is governed by those websites' privacy policies, not ours.

General rights for all visitors: You may request access to or deletion of any personal information you've provided to us (e.g., contact form submissions). Email privacy@qualitygrillparts.com.

We retain personal information only as long as needed to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy:

• Analytics data: aggregated and retained for up to 26 months

The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe we've collected information from a child, contact us at privacy@qualitygrillparts.com and we'll delete it.

We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally. Significant changes will be noted at the top of this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
