Privacy Policy for Affiliate Storefront
Last Updated: May 7, 2026
Welcome to Affiliate Storefront. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you visit our website (affiliatestorefront.com) or use our WordPress plugin and related services.
1. Information We Collect
We only collect the information necessary to provide our service, process transactions, and improve the software.
- Account Information: When you purchase a Pro license or opt into our communications, we collect your name and email address.
- Plugin Usage Data: Our WordPress plugin (PRO) collects basic, non-personally identifiable telemetry data (such as plugin version, WordPress version, PHP version, and site URL) to help us troubleshoot bugs, validate active licenses, and improve compatibility.
- API Routing Data: To bypass standard rate limits, our plugin temporarily routes public product URLs through our external servers to retrieve product images and prices. We do not store, track, or analyze the specific affiliate sales or end-customer data generated by your storefronts.
- Website Analytics: We collect standard, anonymized visitor data (such as IP addresses, browser types, and referral pages) when you browse our primary website.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your data strictly to operate and maintain our software business:
- To validate your Pro license key and ensure authorized use of the software.
- To provide customer support and technical troubleshooting.
- To send critical security updates or notifications of changes to our service.
- To ensure the API infrastructure remains stable and secure.
3. Third-Party Services & Data Sharing
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data. We only share data with essential third-party service providers required to run our business:
- Payment Processing & Licensing: We partner with Freemius, Inc., who acts as our Merchant of Record and handles our Pro version licensing, secure payment processing, and global tax collection. When you purchase a Pro license, your transaction is processed directly and securely by Freemius. We do not process or store your raw credit card data on our servers. You can review how they handle your data in the Freemius Privacy Policy.
- Email Providers: We use [Insert Your Email Provider, e.g., Mailchimp or Postmark] to send transactional emails and product updates.
- Amazon Associates: We are an independent software tool and are not affiliated with Amazon.com, Inc. Users are responsible for ensuring their own compliance with the Amazon Associates Operating Agreement.
4. Data Security
We implement industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access or disclosure. However, no internet transmission is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
5. Your Data Rights
Depending on your location (such as under the GDPR or CCPA), you have the right to:
- Request access to the personal data we hold about you.
- Request that we correct any inaccurate data.
- Request the deletion of your account and associated personal data.
- Opt-out of any promotional marketing communications.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at contact@affiliatestorefront.com.
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as our software features evolve. We will notify users of any significant changes by updating the date at the top of this page or sending an email notification to active Pro users.
