5. Cookies & Tracking Technologies
Our website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to improve your experience and to help us understand how our site is used.
Types of cookies we use:
- Essential cookies — necessary for the website to function correctly
- Analytics cookies — help us understand visitor behavior and improve our site (e.g. Google Analytics)
- Marketing cookies — used to deliver relevant advertising, including via the Facebook Pixel which tracks actions taken on our website to help us measure ad performance and build custom audiences
Facebook Pixel: We use the Facebook Pixel on this website. This tool tracks certain actions visitors take — such as viewing a page or completing a purchase — and reports them to Facebook. This allows us to measure the effectiveness of our advertising, retarget website visitors with relevant ads, and build lookalike audiences. Facebook’s data practices are governed by Meta’s Privacy Policy. You can opt out of Facebook’s use of cookies for advertising purposes at facebook.com/adpreferences.
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of our website.
6. Affiliate Links & Advertising Disclosure
Some links on this website and in our emails are affiliate links. This means we may earn a commission if you click a link and make a purchase, at no additional cost to you. We only recommend products and services we genuinely believe will benefit our audience.
Affiliate relationships we currently maintain include GetResponse, AWeber, OptimizePress, and GreenGeeks, among others. These relationships do not influence our editorial content or recommendations.
7. Payment Security
All payments on our website are processed securely by Stripe, a PCI-DSS compliant payment processor. We do not store, see, or have access to your full credit card details. Stripe’s security practices and privacy policy are available at stripe.com/privacy.
Your credit card statement may show a charge from MIH Business Group, which is the legal business entity operating Auto Selling Machines.
