Privacy policy
What information Circuit & Chime collects, how it's used, who it's shared with, and the choices you have. Plain language, no surprises.
Effective July 20, 2026.
Circuit & Chime (“we”, “us”), published by Type 5 Marketing LLC, respects your privacy. This policy explains what data the site collects and why. We keep data collection to the minimum a content site needs, we don’t sell your personal information, and we don’t require you to create an account to read anything here.
Information we collect
- Analytics data.We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the site is used — pages visited, approximate location (from IP, which Google truncates), device and browser type, and how you arrived. This is aggregate, statistical information used to improve the site; we do not use it to identify you personally.
- Information you send us.If you use the contact form or email us, we receive the details you choose to provide — your name, email address and message — so we can reply and act on corrections or suggestions. We keep this correspondence only as long as needed to handle it.
- Affiliate click data. When you click a product link, we record the click in our analytics (which product, which page) so we can see which recommendations are useful. When you land on the retailer, theirsystems take over — see “affiliate links” below.
We do notcollect payment information (you never buy anything on this site — purchases happen on the retailer’s own site), and we don’t knowingly collect data from children under 13.
Cookies and similar technologies
Google Analytics sets cookies to measure usage as described above. Affiliate programs, chiefly Amazon, set their own cookies when you click through to a retailer, so a purchase can be attributed to us — that’s how the site earns its commission. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; the site will still work, though some analytics won’t be recorded.
Affiliate links
Many product links on this site are affiliate links. When you follow one and make a purchase, the retailer may pay us a commission at no extra cost to you, and the retailer’s own privacy policy governs what happens on their site. Our full affiliate disclosure explains this in detail. In particular, purchases through our Amazon links are subject to Amazon’s privacy notice.
Third parties we rely on
We share data only with the service providers that make the site run, and only as needed:
- Google(Analytics) — site-usage measurement.
- Amazon and other affiliate networks— purchase attribution when you click a product link.
- Our hosting and email providers— to serve the site and to deliver the messages you send us through the contact form.
We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information to anyone.
Your choices and rights
You can browse with cookies disabled, opt out of Google Analytics using Google’s browser add-on, and ask us about any personal data you’ve sent us. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal information we hold about you. To make a request, contact us at info@circuitandchime.comand we’ll respond within a reasonable time.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the site evolves or as the law requires. When we do, we’ll change the effective date at the top. Material changes will be reflected on this page.
