Privacy Policy

Last updated: 9 June 2026

Who We Are — Data Controller

ProductGuru is operated by Czech Export Advisory s.r.o. ("we", "us", "our"), the data controller under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/679):

International Data Transfers

Our advertising is served by Adsterra (Adsterra Group Ltd). Advertising partners may process data outside the European Economic Area, including in the United States; such transfers rely on the Standard Contractual Clauses approved under GDPR Art. 46(2)(c). Where you decline advertising consent, ad requests are made in non-personalised mode. We also use affiliate links to eBay Partner Network and Amazon Associates: following one of those links takes you to the merchant, who then processes your data under their own privacy policy. We do not use Google AdSense.

Information We Collect

Advertising & Third Parties

We use Adsterra (Adsterra Group Ltd) to display advertisements on this site. Adsterra is a third-party advertising network; it and its demand partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other websites. We do not use Google AdSense.

We do not control which ads our advertising partner displays, nor do we have access to any personal data it collects.

Cookies & Consent

We use the following types of cookies:

Anonymous page-view count: each page sends one cookieless signal to our own server with the type of page, the name of the referring website, whether you use a phone or a desktop, and whether the page stayed open for 10 seconds. We keep only daily totals — no cookies, no identifiers, no IP address and no personal data are stored. Browsers with Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control enabled send nothing.

On your first visit we ask for your consent via a cookie banner. You may change your choice at any time via our Cookie Policy page. Legal basis: consent (Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR) for advertising cookies; legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) for strictly necessary functions.

How We Use Your Data

Named Third Parties (GDPR Art. 13(1)(e))

Beyond Google (above), the following named recipients may receive limited data when you interact with specific pages on this site. We do not pay them for data, and they do not pay us for data — these are technical or affiliate relationships.

Data Sharing & Selling

We do not sell your personal data to any third party. We do not share personal information with advertisers directly. Data may be shared with:

Data Retention

Web server logs are retained for up to 90 days. Contact form data is retained until your enquiry is resolved, or for a maximum of 2 years. You may request deletion of your contact record at any time by emailing us.

Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you, and to object to or restrict processing. To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected].

Children's Privacy

ProductGuru is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be indicated by an updated "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after such changes constitutes acceptance of the new policy.

Data Protection Impact Assessment

As required under GDPR Art. 35, we have assessed the privacy risks of third-party advertising. A DPIA has been conducted and is available on written request. Key mitigation: personalised ads require explicit consent; non-personalised mode is the default until consent is given, and in that mode no user-profiling cookies are set by us.
