Privacy Policy

1. Overview & Commitment

At OraPicks (“we,” “us,” or “our,” operating the website https://orapicks.com), we respect your digital privacy. This Privacy Policy discloses the operational details of how we collect, process, and safeguard information when you visit our publication, interact with our editorial reviews, and access outbound merchant links.

2. First-Party Telemetry & Analytics

To continuously improve our editorial curations and understand which product recommendations solve real consumer dilemmas, OraPicks operates a privacy-centric, closed-loop telemetry API (/api/track).

The telemetry system collects pseudonymous and aggregated event records, specifically:

• Pageview Events: Article slug, referring URL, timestamp, and inbound campaign attribution parameters (e.g., utm_source, utm_content).
• Outbound Merchant Interaction: Product ASIN, article slug, product name, and button click timestamp when navigating to Amazon or affiliated retailers.

We do not sell your personal browsing activity, fingerprint your hardware, or assemble cross-site persistent consumer profiles.

3. Pinterest API v5 & Social Integration Compliance

OraPicks distributes editorial inspiration via Pinterest. In full compliance with Pinterest's Developer Guidelines and Pinterest API v5 policies:

• We adhere to Pinterest Rich Pin Article standards, embedding verified OpenGraph and schema metadata.
• Domain ownership is authenticated through verified meta tags (p:domain_verify).
• When visitors save or pin an OraPicks review to their personal Pinterest boards, interactions are processed directly through Pinterest's secure platform endpoints.
• If Pinterest conversion tags or conversion APIs are enabled, data is handled strictly in accordance with Pinterest's Data Sharing Agreement and European standard contractual clauses.

4. Amazon Associates & Merchant Affiliate Disclosures

OraPicks participates in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for websites to earn advertising fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.

When you click an outbound link on OraPicks to view or purchase a product on Amazon, Amazon may set a temporary tracking cookie on your browser to attribute qualifying purchases. Amazon operates as an independent data controller; please review the Amazon.com Privacy Notice for details on their data processing practices.

• Ensure secure, reliable page rendering across device form factors.
• Maintain session state for table-of-contents jump link anchors.
• Cache high-resolution SVG product schematics to speed up page load speeds.

You may disable cookies via your browser settings at any time without compromising your ability to read our articles.
