Privacy

At Absolute Pick, we get it. Privacy policies usually feel like legal homework—long, robotic, and written to confuse more than clarify. But that’s not how we roll. We’re here to help you make smarter buying choices, not sell your soul (or your inbox) while you’re at it.

So here’s the deal: this privacy policy is us telling you, plainly, how we handle your info. No jargon. No sneaky fine print. Just a straight-up breakdown from one real human to another.

If you’re poking around our site, subscribing to our stuff, or downloading our guides, you’re cool with what’s written here. If something bugs you? Totally fine—hit that “x” and step away. No hard feelings.

What We Collect (aka the not-so-creepy stuff)

Let’s get this out of the way: we don’t want to know your deepest secrets. Honestly, we barely want your email unless you really want to hear from us.

But here’s what we do collect (when you give it to us):

• Your name (if you feel like sharing it)
• Your email address (for newsletters or replies)
• Maybe some preferences—like whether you’re into smart home gadgets or just here for the hacks

Then there’s the auto stuff your browser hands over without asking:

• What device you’re using (phone, laptop, maybe a toaster with Wi-Fi?)
• Which pages you visited
• How long you hung out
• Where you clicked (we promise we’re not judging your scroll behavior)

This helps us understand what you like, what’s broken, and what needs more love.

How We Actually Use Your Info

We use your data to do things like:

• Send you the emails you signed up for (and only those—scout’s honor)
• Reply when you reach out
• See what kind of content you love (and what flopped so hard we pretend it never happened)
• Make the site faster, smoother, and less “ugh why won’t this load”

We don’t use your info to stalk you across the internet or slide into your DMs with unrelated ads. Because... gross.

What We Don’t Do (and never will)

Let’s make this super clear:

• We don’t sell your data. Ever.
• We don’t rent it out. Not even to “trusted partners.”
• We don’t drop you into mystery mailing lists.
• We don’t collect credit cards, birthdays, home addresses, or anything that’d make your grandma nervous.

If you unsubscribe, that’s it—you’re out. No guilt, no “sorry to see you go” with a dozen follow-ups. Just... gone. Like a ghost. A very respectful ghost.

Cookies (yeah, those again)

Okay, real talk: yes, we use cookies. No, they’re not the fun chocolate chip kind.

Cookies help us:

• Remember if you’ve been here before
• Speed things up
• See which posts are hot and which ones are cold leftovers

If you’re not into it, feel free to disable cookies in your browser. We won’t take it personally. Some features might get a little wonky, but you do you.

Third-Party Tools We Trust

To run this site, we use some outside tools. Nothing shady—just the basics:

• A newsletter service (so we don’t send emails from a Gmail account like it’s 2007)
• Google Analytics (to figure out what’s working)
• Hosting platforms (so the site doesn’t crash when a guide goes viral)

These tools see the bare minimum. No one’s digging through your personal life or selling your data behind our backs. If any partner breaks that trust, they’re gone. End of story.

Your Rights (because it’s your data, not ours)

Here’s what you can always do:

• Ask what info we’ve got on you
• Tell us to delete it
• Ask us to update it
• Unsubscribe, opt out, disappear—whatever makes you feel comfortable

All you have to do is email us at contact@absolutepick.com. We’ll sort it out—no hassle, no judgment.

Security Stuff

We use encrypted systems and secure hosting. We also don’t store more than we need. And we don’t pretend to be bulletproof, either. If something ever goes wrong—like a data breach—you’ll hear it from us first, not some news article three weeks later.

Kids, Please Don’t Submit Anything

This site isn’t made for kids under 13. If we find out a child shared info here, we’ll delete it—no questions asked. Parents, feel free to reach out if you’re concerned.

External Links

We link to cool products, smart tools, and other helpful places. Once you leave our site, their rules apply. We’re not responsible for how those sites collect or use your info. Always double-check their privacy stuff before sharing anything sensitive.

We Might Change This Policy—But Not Secretly

Sometimes things change. Tools update. Privacy laws evolve. When that happens, we might tweak this page. If it’s a big change, we’ll say so. If it’s minor, we’ll still update the date at the top.

Either way, this page will always be readable, honest, and written like someone who actually respects your time.

Still Got Questions? Let’s Talk

Not sure about something? Want to know what we’ve stored? Or just want to make sure this policy wasn’t written by a bot?

Hit us up at: contact@absolutepick.com 

We’ll answer like real humans. Because that’s what we are.

Thanks for trusting us enough to click around, sign up, or share your inbox. We don’t take that lightly.

Now go make your next smart pick—with full peace of mind.
