Cookies & Tracking Technologies

We use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to remember preferences (e.g., theme, cookie consent) and to understand how our site is used. You can control cookies via your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect site functionality.

Analytics

We use privacy‑minded analytics tools and/or third‑party analytics providers to understand aggregate usage. These services may set cookies or collect device/usage data as described in their own policies. Where feasible, we enable IP anonymization and respect “Do Not Track” signals.

Affiliate Links & Advertising (Affiliate Disclosure)

Some links on Controller Guide are affiliate links. If you click a link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Commissions do not influence our editorial decisions, testing, or product rankings. We strive to clearly label affiliate links and will never recommend a product we would not use or recommend ourselves based on our methodology.

Information Sharing

We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited data with:

Service providers (e.g., analytics, hosting) who process data on our behalf under contractual confidentiality and security obligations.
Legal, safety, and compliance needs if required by law, to protect our rights, users, or the public.
Business transfers in the event of a merger, acquisition, or reorganization, where data would remain subject to this Policy.

Data Retention

We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described, to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. You may request deletion of your personal data where applicable by contacting us.
