Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 4, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains what personal data ValueSeekers.net (“we”, “us”) processes, why, and what rights you have under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

2. What we process and why

Visiting the website

When you visit the site, our hosting provider’s servers automatically record technical data such as your IP address, browser type, the page requested and the time of the request (server logs). This is necessary to deliver the website securely and to prevent abuse. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in operating a secure website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Logs are kept only for a short period by the hosting provider and are not used to identify you.

Newsletter

If you subscribe to our newsletter, we store your email address, the time of your consent and the page you subscribed from. We use it only to send you our newsletter. Legal basis: your consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR). You can unsubscribe and withdraw consent at any time via the link in every email or by contacting us; we then delete your address. If we start using an email service provider to send the newsletter, we will name it here.

Contacting us

If you email us, we use your email address and message only to answer you. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). We delete correspondence when it is no longer needed.

Affiliate links

When you click an affiliate link (for example valueseekers.net/go/…), we only count the number of clicks on that link — we do not store who clicked. You are then sent to the retailer’s website, where the retailer (for example Amazon) may set cookies to attribute a purchase to us. That processing is the retailer’s responsibility and is governed by its own privacy policy.

Comments

This website does not offer comments.

Embedded content

Articles may include embedded content (for example videos). Embedded content behaves as if you visited the other website directly, and that website may collect data about you. We will only embed such content where necessary.

3. Processors and recipients

Our website is hosted by Hostinger International Ltd., 61 Lordou Vironos Street, 6023 Larnaca, Cyprus — www.hostinger.com, which processes data on our behalf under a data processing agreement. We do not sell your personal data.

4. Transfers outside the EU

We aim to keep data within the EU/EEA. Where a service provider transfers data outside the EEA, this happens only with appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.

5. Your rights

You have the right to access your data, to have it corrected or erased, to restrict or object to processing, to data portability, and to withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of earlier processing. To exercise these rights, contact us at hello@valueseekers.net.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority — in Hungary the Nemzeti Adatvédelmi és Információszabadság Hatóság (NAIH), 1055 Budapest, Falk Miksa utca 9–11, www.naih.hu — or the authority in your country of residence.

6. Cookies

See our Cookie Policy.

7. Children

This website is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their data.

8. Changes

We may update this policy when our services change. The current version is always available on this page.
