Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how PillowHQ, an affiliate-supported review and comparison site, collects, uses, and shares information when visitors access the website, submit a contact request, or interact with advertising and affiliate links. The site is operated by Pillow HQ and this policy covers information handled through the website and related communications.
This policy is meant to describe common practices in plain language. It does not cover third-party websites that may be reached through outbound links, ad placements, or affiliate tracking links, and those sites may have their own privacy terms. Users should review those policies separately, since data practices can differ.
Information We Collect
PillowHQ may collect information in several ways, depending on how a visitor uses the site. This can include information provided through a contact form, such as a name, email address, and message content. It can also include technical and usage data collected automatically through cookies and similar technologies.
- Contact form submissions and related correspondence
- Cookie data and analytics events
- Ad-platform click identifiers such as gclid, msclkid, wbraid, and gbraid
- Referrer information that may show the page or source that led a visitor to the site
- Device, browser, operating system, and general network information
Some of this information may be collected by analytics tools, ad platforms, hosting infrastructure, or email services. In many cases, the data is limited to what is needed to operate the site, measure traffic, or respond to inquiries. Individual experiences may differ based on browser settings, consent choices, and third-party configurations.
How We Use Information
Information collected through the website may be used for site analytics, conversion tracking, and responding to contact requests. For example, click identifiers and referrer data can help determine which ads or pages led to a visit, though results vary based on platform settings and attribution rules.
Contact form submissions are typically used to answer questions, manage feedback, or handle privacy requests. Technical data may also be used to maintain the site, troubleshoot errors, improve performance, and better understand how visitors move through pages. Some customers may find that these uses improve relevance and site reliability, but results vary based on device type, consent status, and browser behavior.
Third Parties
PillowHQ may share or disclose information with third parties that provide services necessary to operate the site or support advertising and affiliate tracking. These third parties may process data under their own policies and may collect information independently through their tools.
- Google Ads
- Microsoft Ads
- Affiliate networks, including MaxBounty, DFO Performance, ClickBank, MaxWeb, and BuyGoods
- The hosting provider that serves and maintains the website
- The email provider that delivers contact form messages and replies
Affiliate links may use tracking technology so commissions can be attributed when a visitor clicks through to a merchant or offer page. That tracking may occur through the affiliate network or the destination merchant, and the exact data shared can vary by partner and campaign.
Cookies & Similar Technologies
The site may use cookies, pixels, local storage, and similar technologies to remember preferences, measure traffic, and support advertising attribution. Analytics and ad platforms may set their own cookies when visitors interact with pages or ads. These tools can help estimate page views, referral sources, and conversion events, although results vary based on browser settings and consent choices.
Visitors may be able to manage cookies through browser settings, consent tools, or device-level controls. Blocking some cookies may affect site functionality, the accuracy of analytics, or the ability to track affiliate referrals. Some features may still work without cookies, but others may not perform as expected.
Your Rights
Depending on location, visitors may have rights to access, delete, or correct certain personal information. Where applicable under GDPR, CCPA, or similar laws, visitors may also have the right to object to certain processing, limit targeted advertising, or request information about how data is shared.
Requests may be subject to verification and legal exceptions. For example, some records may need to be retained for security, accounting, fraud prevention, or compliance reasons. Visitors who want to exercise privacy rights should use the contact details below. Some requests may require follow-up to confirm identity or clarify the scope of the request.
Data Retention
PillowHQ retains personal information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including responding to inquiries, maintaining records, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, and meeting legal obligations. Retention periods may differ depending on the type of record and the third-party service involved.
Analytics and advertising data may be retained by third parties under their own retention schedules. Contact form messages may be kept for an extended period if needed to preserve business records or handle follow-up requests. When information is no longer needed, the site may delete it or take steps to de-identify it, although complete removal from backups or third-party systems may not always be immediate.

PillowHQ will review requests in good faith and respond as required by applicable law, though response times may vary based on the volume and complexity of inquiries.
