Privacy Policy & Cookie Disclosure
Last revised and updated: September 2026
1. Introduction & Who We Are
Welcome to MyBestDiscounts (“we”, “us”, or “our”). We are committed to protecting and respecting your personal privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, store, process, and protect your personal information when you visit our website (mybestdiscounts.co.uk) or use any of our deal alert and discount discovery services.
For the purposes of the UK Data Protection Act 2018 and the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), MyBestDiscounts acts as the Data Controller responsible for your personal information.
2. What Information We Collect
We only collect data that is necessary to provide you with the best savings experience:
- Information you provide voluntarily: When you subscribe to our newsletter or request store-specific deal alerts, we collect your email address and optionally your name. When submitting an inquiry via our Contact Support form, we collect the details you provide in your message.
- Technical & Usage Information: When you browse MyBestDiscounts, our servers automatically collect non-personally identifiable technical telemetry including your IP address, browser type, operating system, approximate geographic country/region, referring URL, and session click interactions with promotions.
- Theme & Display Preferences: We use client-side session storage (such as your chosen color theme) to preserve your preferences during your visit.
3. How We Use Your Information
We process your data strictly under recognized legal bases under the UK GDPR:
To Deliver Deal Alerts (Consent)
Sending you the verified discount codes, weekly roundups, and merchant deal notifications that you explicitly requested.
Website Operation (Legitimate Interests)
Monitoring website performance, preventing automated scraping or abuse, diagnosing bugs, and improving site layout.
4. Affiliate Links & Tracking Disclosure
MyBestDiscounts participates in affiliate marketing networks including Awin, CJ Affiliate (Commission Junction), and Rakuten Advertising, as well as direct retail partnerships.
When you click on a deal button or copy a voucher code on our website, you may be redirected to the retailer's official store via an affiliate tracking link. This process may place a harmless tracking cookie on your device. This cookie records that your visit originated from MyBestDiscounts so that if you make a purchase, the retailer can pay us a small commission.
5. Cookies & Local Storage Policy
We use cookies and browser storage for:
- Essential Cookies: Required for the secure functioning of our site and admin authentication.
- Functional Storage: Remembering your active color theme preference across browser sessions.
- Affiliate Attribution: Facilitating merchant tracking when you click out to an external store.
You can modify your browser settings to decline cookies at any time; however, this may occasionally affect the tracking of store discounts.
6. Your Legal Rights (UK GDPR)
Under data protection law, you have specific enforceable rights:
- Right to Access: You can request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Right to Erasure (“Right to be Forgotten”): You can request that we delete your email and subscription records from our database.
- Right to Withdraw Consent: You can unsubscribe from any deal alerts at any time via the 1-click unsubscribe link in our emails, or by emailing our privacy team.
