Cookie Policy

Last updated: February 2025. This policy explains how FyndLink and our partners use cookies and similar technologies on our websites and in our affiliate network.

1. What are cookies and similar technologies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make sites work properly, to remember your preferences, and to understand how visitors use the site. “Similar technologies” includes local storage, session storage, pixels and scripts that can store or access information on your device or track your behaviour. In this policy we use “cookies” to refer to cookies and such similar technologies where relevant.

2. Who is responsible?

The controller for cookies set on our own websites (including www.fyndlink.com) is Lamajani-Media, Lars Rujner, Zingster Straße 29, D-13051 Berlin, Germany. On our network platform (network.fyndlink.com) and on publisher or advertiser pages that use our tracking, we and our partners (e.g. underlying networks, advertisers) may set or read cookies. Where those partners set cookies, they are responsible for their own compliance with applicable law; we describe below the main categories of use from our perspective.

3. Why we use cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

  • Strictly necessary / essential: Required for the site and platform to function (e.g. session management, security, load balancing, cookie consent storage). These do not require your consent under the ePrivacy Directive where they are strictly necessary.
  • Functional: To remember your choices (e.g. language, region, cookie preferences) and to provide enhanced features. These may be based on consent where required.
  • Analytics and performance: To understand how visitors use our site (e.g. pages visited, traffic sources) so we can improve our services. This may involve first- or third-party tools. Where required by law we rely on your consent before setting non-essential analytics cookies.
  • Affiliate and performance marketing (tracking): On our network platform and on sites that use our tracking links, we and our partners use cookies and similar technologies to attribute clicks and conversions to the correct publisher, to prevent fraud, and to optimise campaigns (CPA, CPS, CPC). This is core to how an affiliate network operates. Duration may range from session cookies to longer-term cookies (e.g. 30 days) depending on the program. Where consent is required by law (e.g. in the EEA for non-essential tracking), we will only set or allow such cookies after you have given your consent.
  • Marketing: We may use cookies to deliver relevant ads or to measure the effectiveness of our own marketing. We do so only where we have a legal basis (e.g. consent where required).

4. Cookie consent on our website

When you first visit our website you will see a cookie consent banner. You can:

  • Accept all: We will set essential, functional, analytics and marketing cookies in line with our configuration.
  • Necessary only: We will set only cookies that are strictly necessary for the operation of the site (and store your preference so we do not show the banner again for that choice).
  • Customize: You can read this Cookie Policy and, where we offer granular controls (e.g. in the network dashboard), adjust your preferences.

Your choice is stored (e.g. in local storage) so we can respect it on future visits. You can change your mind at any time by clearing cookies and local storage, or by revisiting this page if we provide a way to update preferences.

5. Examples of cookies we may use

Below are examples of the types of cookies that may be used. Exact names and lifetimes can change; this list is for illustration.

  • Session / authentication: Session ID, login token – duration: session or short-lived – purpose: to keep you logged in and secure.
  • Cookie consent: e.g. fyndlink_cookie_consent (stored in local storage) – duration: up to 12 months – purpose: to remember your cookie choices.
  • Security: e.g. CSRF token, security flags – duration: session or short – purpose: to protect against cross-site request forgery and abuse.
  • Analytics: e.g. first-party or third-party analytics IDs – duration: as per the tool (e.g. 12–24 months) – purpose: to analyse usage and improve the site. Only set after consent where required.
  • Affiliate tracking: On the network and on partner sites, click and conversion identifiers may be stored (e.g. in cookies or URL parameters) – duration: as per the program (e.g. 7–30 days) – purpose: attribution and fraud prevention. Where consent is required we rely on the consent obtained by the site you are on or by our banner.

6. Third-party cookies

Our pages may include content or tools from third parties (e.g. underlying affiliate networks, analytics providers). Those third parties may set their own cookies. We do not control their cookies; their use is governed by their respective privacy and cookie policies. We recommend that you review those policies if you want to understand or control third-party cookies.

7. How to control or delete cookies

You can control cookies in several ways:

  • Our banner: Use “Necessary only” to reject non-essential cookies, or “Accept all” to allow them. You can also use “Customize” to read more and, where available, change preferences.
  • Browser settings: Most browsers let you block or delete cookies in their settings. Note that blocking all cookies may affect the functionality of our site and of the affiliate network (e.g. login, tracking).
  • Opt-out tools: Some industry opt-out tools (e.g. for advertising or analytics) may allow you to opt out of certain third-party cookies; check the relevant provider’s website.

If you use our network as a publisher or advertiser, additional cookies and tracking may apply on the platform and on landing pages; the same principles of necessity, consent and transparency apply as far as we are responsible.

8. Updates

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or in the law. The “Last updated” date at the top will be revised accordingly. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
