1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files containing a string of characters that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are essential tools that allow websites to recognize your device and remember information about your visit, such as your preferences or actions over a period.

This policy explains the types of cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can control them. Our goal is to be transparent about our use of this technology to ensure our services function correctly, to prevent fraud, and to analyze and improve our services in a way that respects your privacy.

In Simple Terms: We use cookies for a few key reasons: to make sure the site works properly (like remembering your preferences), to see how people use the site so we can improve it (analytics), and to track when you click a link to a VPN provider. That last part is how we earn a commission if you make a purchase, and it's what keeps our site running at no cost to you.

We categorize the cookies we use as follows:

Cookie Type Purpose & Examples
Strictly Necessary Cookies These cookies are essential for you to browse the website and use its features. They cannot be disabled. They are typically set in response to your actions, such as setting your cookie consent preferences.
Performance & Analytics Cookies These cookies collect anonymous, aggregated data about how visitors use our website. This helps us understand which pages are popular, how users navigate the site, and where we can make improvements. We use services like Google Analytics for this purpose. The data collected does not directly identify you.
Affiliate & Advertising Cookies As a VPN comparison and affiliate marketing website, these cookies are fundamental to our business model. When you click an affiliate link to a VPN provider on our site, a cookie is placed on your device. This cookie's job is to tell the VPN provider that you came from FindCheapVPNs. If you purchase a subscription, this cookie ensures we are credited for the referral. These cookies do not store personal data like your name or email.
Functionality Cookies These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. For example, they might be used to remember choices you make (like your username or region) to provide a more personal experience. If you do not allow these cookies, then some or all of these services may not function properly.

In addition to our own cookies, we also use various third-parties' cookies to report usage statistics of the Service, deliver advertisements on and through the Service, and so on. These third-party services, such as Google Analytics and our affiliate partners (e.g., Commission Junction, Impact, or other affiliate networks), have their own privacy and cookie policies. We do not control these cookies. We recommend you review their policies to understand how they use your data.

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can manage your cookie preferences through your web browser's settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies.

Please note that if you choose to reject or delete cookies, you may still use our website, but your access to some functionality and areas may be restricted, and the site may not work as intended.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our data use practices. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new Cookie Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this Cookie Policy periodically for any changes.
