Privacy policy
Last updated May 1, 2026.
Wattpicker (“we”) operates wattpicker.com. This page describes what data we collect, what we do with it, and your choices. Plain language; no surprises.
What we collect
- Email address — only when you set a price alert. We use it to send the alert and a one-click unsubscribe link. We don't add it to a marketing list.
- IP address (hashed) — when you click an outbound affiliate link via
/go/[token], we record a SHA-256 truncated hash of your IP plus the user-agent string. We use this to attribute clicks and detect abuse. We never store the raw IP. - Cookies — admin sessions only (HttpOnly, SameSite=Lax). We don't set tracking cookies on the public site.
- What we don't collect — no third-party analytics by default. No advertising pixels. No social-share trackers. No fingerprinting libraries.
Affiliate links
When you click a “Buy” button, we redirect you through our /go/[token] route to the retailer with our affiliate ID appended. The retailer's own privacy policy applies once you arrive on their site. See our affiliate disclosure.
Email service provider
We use Resend (resend.com) for transactional email delivery. Email content and addresses transit through Resend's infrastructure for sending and bounce handling. See Resend's privacy policy.
CDN + DDoS protection
We sit behind Cloudflare, which sees your IP at TLS termination. Cloudflare's privacy policy applies to that hop: cloudflare.com/privacypolicy.
Your choices
- Unsubscribe — every alert email has a one-click unsubscribe link.
- Delete your data — email tom@wattpicker.com with the email address you signed up with and we'll delete the associated alert records.
- California / GDPR — if you live in CA, EU, or UK and want to access, port, or delete your data, email us. We'll respond within 30 days.
- Do Not Track — we don't track in the first place; no DNT toggle is needed.
Children
Wattpicker is intended for adults purchasing power equipment. We don't knowingly collect data from anyone under 13.
Changes
If we change this policy materially, we'll update the “Last updated” date and announce changes prominently on the site for at least 30 days before they take effect.
