Privacy Policy

Data controller and contact

The data controller for mintos-reviews.com is [ENTITY NAME AND REGISTRATION DETAILS TO BE INSERTED]. For privacy enquiries, data subject access requests or to exercise any right described below, contact [EMAIL ADDRESS TO BE INSERTED].

What data is collected

mintos-reviews.com collects limited visitor data to operate the site, measure traffic and track affiliate conversions where applicable. The types of data processed include:

• Analytics data. Aggregate traffic metrics such as page views, session duration, device type and referral source. This site uses server-side analytics and does not embed third-party tracking pixels or social media widgets. No personally identifiable information is collected through analytics.
• Cookies. A session cookie may be set to preserve visitor preferences (such as the state of navigation menus) for the duration of your visit. No persistent tracking cookies are used. Where affiliate links are clicked, a temporary cookie or URL parameter may be set by the third-party platform (Maclear, 8lends or other sponsored partners) to attribute the referral; these are subject to the third party's own privacy policy.
• Affiliate tracking data. When you click a link marked "Sponsored" and subsequently sign up with that platform, the third party may share aggregated conversion data (number of sign-ups, approximate region) with this site for commission calculation. No email addresses, names or account balances are shared with mintos-reviews.com.
• Contact form submissions. If you use the contact page, your email address and message content are stored only as long as necessary to respond to your enquiry and are deleted within 90 days unless ongoing correspondence requires retention.

Legal basis for processing

Under GDPR Article 6(1), the legal basis for processing is:

• Legitimate interest (Article 6(1)(f)) for analytics and site operation, balanced against minimal privacy impact through aggregate, non-identifiable data collection.
• Legitimate interest for affiliate tracking, where the processing enables the site's business model without collecting or storing personal data beyond what the third-party platform handles under its own legal basis.
• Consent (Article 6(1)(a)) where a visitor voluntarily submits personal data via the contact form.

Data retention

Server logs containing IP addresses are retained for 30 days for security and fraud prevention, then automatically deleted. Contact form data is deleted within 90 days unless an ongoing conversation requires further retention. Aggregate analytics data (already anonymised) is retained indefinitely for historical traffic analysis.

Third-party data sharing

mintos-reviews.com does not sell, rent or trade visitor data. Affiliate links direct you to third-party platforms (Maclear, 8lends) that operate under their own privacy policies; this site has no control over how those platforms process your data once you leave this domain. The Mintos CTA is currently a plain, unpaid link with no tracking mechanism on this site's side.

Your data subject rights

Under GDPR Articles 15-22, you have the right to:

• Access. Request a copy of any personal data this site holds about you.
• Rectification. Correct inaccurate data.
• Erasure. Request deletion of your data where no legal obligation requires retention.
• Restriction. Limit processing under certain conditions.
• Portability. Receive your data in a machine-readable format.
• Objection. Object to processing based on legitimate interest.
• Withdraw consent. Where consent is the legal basis, withdraw it at any time without affecting prior lawful processing.

To exercise any of these rights, contact [EMAIL ADDRESS TO BE INSERTED]. Response within 30 days per GDPR Article 12(3).
