Privacy Policy

1. Information We Collect

Information you provide

We do not require account creation or registration. If you contact us via email, we collect your name and email address solely to respond to your inquiry.

Information collected automatically

When you visit Folvr, we and our third-party partners may automatically collect:

• IP address and approximate location (country/region)
• Browser type, device type, and operating system
• Pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring URL
• Clicks on links, including affiliate and advertiser links

This information is used in aggregate to understand how visitors use our site and to improve our content.

2. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies (pixels, web beacons) for the following purposes:

• Analytics: We use Google Analytics or similar tools to understand site traffic patterns. Data is aggregated and anonymized.
• Advertising: We use Google AdSense, which places cookies to serve relevant ads based on your interests. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the internet.
• Affiliate tracking: When you click an affiliate link, the merchant may set a cookie to track referrals for commission purposes.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling cookies may affect your browsing experience. You may also opt out of personalized Google advertising at google.com/settings/ads.

3. Affiliate Disclosure

Folvr participates in affiliate marketing programs. This means we may earn a commission when you click on certain links and complete a purchase or application — at no additional cost to you. Affiliate relationships never influence our editorial ratings, rankings, or reviews. We only recommend products we believe provide genuine value.

All affiliate relationships are clearly disclosed on relevant pages and in our site-wide footer.
