Privacy Policy

PreciousMetalsRadar.com respects the privacy of its visitors. This Privacy Policy explains how information may be collected, used, shared, and protected when visitors use this website.

PreciousMetalsRadar.com is an educational and research-oriented website focused on physical precious metals, including observed dealer pricing, retail premiums, market data, and related educational content. PreciousMetalsRadar.com does not sell precious metals directly and does not process purchase transactions on this website.

PreciousMetalsRadar.com uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to help understand how visitors use the site and to measure site performance. Google Analytics may collect information such as pages visited, interactions with the site, referral source, browser and device information, and approximate geographic information.

PreciousMetalsRadar.com uses a cookie consent mechanism to manage non-essential tracking. Analytics-related tracking is intended to operate in accordance with a visitor’s consent choices. Essential cookies or local storage required for core site functionality, such as remembering cookie consent preferences and maintaining authenticated session state, may be used regardless of whether non-essential cookies are accepted.

PreciousMetalsRadar.com does not currently use advertising, retargeting, heatmap, or social media tracking technologies for its own marketing purposes. If additional non-essential tracking technologies are introduced, this Privacy Policy will be updated to describe their use and, where required, they will be subject to the site’s cookie consent controls.

When a visitor clicks an outbound affiliate link to a dealer website, the destination dealer or its affiliate network may use cookies or other tracking technologies to attribute the referral or measure resulting activity. Those technologies operate on the destination website or through the applicable affiliate network and are governed by their respective privacy policies and practices, not by PreciousMetalsRadar.com.

PreciousMetalsRadar.com may collect limited information from visitors in the following ways:

Information provided directly by visitors. Visitors may voluntarily provide information when they submit a contact form, subscribe to an email list or newsletter, request information, or communicate with PreciousMetalsRadar.com directly. This information may include name, email address, message content, and any other information voluntarily submitted.

Information collected automatically. When visitors use the website, certain information may be collected automatically through cookies, analytics tools, server logs, affiliate links, or similar technologies. This may include IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, pages viewed, referring website, date and time of visit, general location information, click activity on the website, and outbound links clicked. This information is generally used to understand website performance, improve user experience, measure content engagement, and support affiliate referral tracking.

PreciousMetalsRadar.com may use cookies, pixels, scripts, and similar technologies to support website functionality, analytics, performance measurement, and affiliate referral tracking.

Cookies are small files placed on a visitor’s device that help websites remember certain information or measure activity.

Cookies may be used to keep the website functioning properly, understand how visitors use the website, improve website design, measure traffic sources, track outbound referral clicks to dealer or partner websites, and support affiliate attribution.

Some cookies may be placed by third-party service providers, analytics providers, affiliate networks, or dealer websites when visitors interact with outbound links.

Visitors may control cookies through browser settings or through any cookie consent tools provided on the website.

PreciousMetalsRadar.com may use analytics tools to understand how visitors interact with the website. These tools may collect information such as pages visited, time spent on pages, referring sources, device type, and general geographic location.

This information helps PreciousMetalsRadar.com improve content, usability, performance, and site navigation. Analytics data is generally aggregated and is not intended to personally identify individual visitors.

Some outbound links on PreciousMetalsRadar.com may be affiliate links. This means PreciousMetalsRadar.com may receive compensation if a visitor clicks an outbound link and later makes a purchase or completes another qualifying action.

Affiliate links may use cookies or similar tracking technologies to attribute referrals. These cookies may be placed by affiliate networks, dealers, or other third-party partners.

Affiliate compensation does not change the observed pricing, premium calculations, methodology, educational content, or editorial approach used by PreciousMetalsRadar.com.

PreciousMetalsRadar.com aims to clearly disclose affiliate relationships near relevant links and in its Affiliate Disclosure.

PreciousMetalsRadar.com may link to third-party websites, including precious metals dealers, market data providers, news sources, affiliate partners, and educational resources.

Once a visitor leaves PreciousMetalsRadar.com and visits a third-party website, that third party’s own privacy policy, terms, cookie practices, pricing, checkout process, and data practices apply.

PreciousMetalsRadar.com is not responsible for the privacy practices, content, security, pricing, availability, or policies of third-party websites. Visitors should review the privacy policies and terms of any third-party websites they visit.

PreciousMetalsRadar.com may use collected information to operate and maintain the website, improve website functionality and user experience, analyze website traffic and performance, respond to visitor inquiries, send requested communications, monitor website security, understand which content is useful to visitors, track affiliate referrals, improve educational content, tools, and research features, and comply with applicable legal obligations.

PreciousMetalsRadar.com may share limited information with service providers or third parties that help operate the website, including website hosting providers, analytics providers, email service providers, affiliate networks, security and performance tools, and website development or maintenance providers.

These third parties may process information only as needed to provide their services, subject to their own policies and contractual obligations where applicable.

PreciousMetalsRadar.com does not knowingly sell personal information in the ordinary meaning of selling names, emails, or contact details for money. However, some privacy laws may define “sale” or “sharing” broadly to include certain advertising, analytics, or affiliate tracking activities.

If visitors subscribe to email updates or submit their email address, PreciousMetalsRadar.com may use that email address to send requested updates, respond to inquiries, or provide relevant information.

Visitors may unsubscribe from marketing or newsletter emails by using the unsubscribe link included in those emails, where applicable. PreciousMetalsRadar.com does not intend to send unsolicited email communications.

PreciousMetalsRadar.com uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to help protect information collected through the website.

However, no website, internet transmission, database, or electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Visitors use the website at their own discretion and risk.

PreciousMetalsRadar.com retains information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

Analytics and cookie data may be retained according to the settings of the applicable analytics, affiliate, or service provider tools.
