Privacy policy

This page explains what data we collect, how analytics and cookies work, and the choices you have when using HomeEspressoLab.

Updated: 2026-02-08 Canada-focused No sale of personal data

What we collect

HomeEspressoLab is an informational site. We try to collect as little personal data as possible. When you browse, your device and browser may still share basic technical information automatically.

Analytics (optional)

If you accept analytics cookies, we collect aggregated usage data (pages viewed, approximate location, device type, and interactions) to improve content.

Affiliate link events

When you click an outbound retailer link, we may record a click event to measure intent and page usefulness. This does not change prices for you.

Server logs

Like most websites, our hosting may keep short-lived logs for security and reliability (e.g., IP address, user agent, request time).

Cookies & similar technologies

Cookies are small files stored on your device. We use them for basic site function, and for analytics only when you consent. You can also block cookies in your browser settings.

Tip: To change your choice, open the cookie banner again (or refresh the page if the banner is hidden) and select Customize.

Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) with Consent Mode. By default, analytics storage is disabled until you accept. We also configure analytics settings to reduce personalization signals.

What GA4 may collect (if you consent)

  • Pages viewed, time on page, and basic interaction events.
  • Device and browser information (e.g., phone vs desktop).
  • Approximate location (city/region level, not precise GPS).

Affiliate links

Some links on HomeEspressoLab are affiliate links. If you click and purchase, we may receive a fee from the retailer. You do not pay more because of this. Affiliate partners may place their own cookies according to their policies.

For details on independence and rankings, see: Disclosure.

Sharing & selling

We do not sell personal information. We only share limited data with service providers needed to operate the site (analytics, hosting, performance/security tools), and only as required to provide the service.

Data retention

We keep data only as long as necessary for the purposes described above. Analytics data is retained in aggregated form; server logs are retained for a limited time for security and troubleshooting.

Your choices & rights

Consent

You can accept or reject analytics. You can change your choice later.

Browser controls

You can block cookies or clear stored cookies in your browser settings.
