Privacy policy
What this site collects, which is very little, and what happens when you click through to a retailer.
What we collect
Aggregate, non-identifying traffic statistics through Cloudflare Web Analytics: the page viewed, the referring site, country, and device type. No cookies are set for analytics and no cross-site profile is built about you.
We do not run advertising, we do not sell data, and we have no ability to identify individual visitors.
If you email us, we hold that email in order to reply to it. Nothing more.
Affiliate links
Clicking a "Check price" button passes you to a retailer's own site through an affiliate network. That network sets its own cookie in order to attribute a purchase back to us.
We receive only aggregate reporting — which pages produced clicks and sales. We never see your identity, your payment details or the contents of your order. Once you leave this site, the retailer's and the network's own privacy policies govern what happens.
If you would rather not be tracked by the network, you can reach the retailers directly by typing their address into your browser. Nothing on this site is gated behind our links.
Fonts
Typefaces are currently served from Google Fonts, which means your browser makes a request to Google when a page loads. Google receives your IP address as part of that request. No cookie is set and no account is involved, but it is a third party and we would rather tell you than not.
We intend to self-host these files, which removes the request entirely. Until then, this paragraph stands.
Hosting
The site is static and served by Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare processes request logs as part of delivering and protecting the site, under its own terms.
Your rights
Residents of California (CCPA and CPRA), the EEA and the UK (GDPR) have rights of access, correction, deletion and objection.
Because we hold no identifying data about visitors, there is typically nothing to retrieve or delete — but if you have emailed us and want that correspondence removed, say so and it will be.
Requests: editor@caratbrands.com.
Children
This site is aimed at adults purchasing jewellery and is not directed at anyone under 16. We do not knowingly collect information from children.
Changes
If this policy changes, the effective date at the top changes with it.
