1. Information We Collect
Information You Provide
We collect information you voluntarily provide when you contact us via email (info@paypalcrypto.io) or any contact form on this site. This may include your name, email address, and message content.
Automatically Collected Information
When you visit our website, we may automatically collect certain technical information including:
- IP address (anonymized where possible)
- Browser type and version
- Pages visited and time spent on pages
- Referring website URL
- Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)
This data is collected via standard web server logs and analytics tools (such as Google Analytics or privacy-focused alternatives) to help us understand how visitors use our site and improve our content.
2. Cookies
Our website may use cookies — small text files stored on your device — for the following purposes:
- Analytics cookies: To understand traffic patterns and content performance (e.g., Google Analytics). You can opt out via your browser settings or Google's opt-out tools.
- Affiliate tracking cookies: When you click links to third-party exchanges (e.g., CEX.IO), affiliate tracking cookies may be set by those third parties. This allows us to earn commissions at no extra cost to you. See Section 5 for more details.
- Functional cookies: Basic site functionality (e.g., remembering your language preference).
You can control cookie settings in your browser. Blocking all cookies may affect site functionality.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use collected information to:
- Respond to inquiries and feedback
- Improve and update our content
- Analyze website traffic and user behavior (in aggregate, anonymized form)
- Comply with legal obligations
- Detect and prevent fraud or abuse
We do not sell your personal information to third parties. We do not use your data for targeted advertising beyond standard analytics.
4. Third-Party Links
Our website contains links to third-party websites (exchanges, regulatory bodies, news sources). All external links are marked with rel="nofollow noopener". We are not responsible for the privacy practices of linked websites. Please review their privacy policies before providing any personal information.
5. Affiliate Disclosure
PayPalCrypto.io participates in affiliate programs. When you click certain links to exchanges (primarily CEX.IO) and complete a qualifying action (account registration or transaction), we may earn a commission. This comes at no additional cost to you and does not influence the price you pay on any exchange.
Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial ratings or recommendations. We would recommend CEX.IO regardless of any financial arrangement due to their verified regulatory credentials.
6. Data Retention
Email correspondence is retained for up to 2 years for record-keeping purposes. Analytics data is retained in aggregated, anonymized form. We do not retain payment card information (we do not process payments).
