Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 13, 2025
At SleepTrade, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you visit sleeptrade.win. We keep it simple: we collect minimal data, we don't sell it, and we're transparent about how it's used.
Minimal Data
We only collect anonymous analytics — no accounts, no personal profiles.
Never Sold
Your data is never sold or traded to third parties. Period.
You're in Control
You can opt out of analytics at any time via your browser settings.
1Who We Are
SleepTrade is a trading intelligence website operated at sleeptrade.win. We are an independent media site — not a brokerage, exchange, or financial services firm. If you have any privacy-related questions, contact us at sleeptradewin@gmail.com.
2What Data We Collect
Analytics Data (Automatic)
We use analytics tools to understand how visitors use our site. This data is anonymized and aggregated — it cannot be used to identify you personally. It may include:
- →Pages visited and time spent on each page
- →Referring website or search engine
- →General geographic region (country/region level only, not precise location)
- →Browser type and operating system
- →Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)

- ✓Financial information or payment data
- ✓Precise location or GPS coordinates
- ✓Social security numbers or government IDs
- ✓Any biometric or sensitive personal data
Voluntarily Provided Data
If you choose to contact us via email at sleeptradewin@gmail.com, we will receive any information you include in your message (such as your name and email address). We use this solely to respond to your inquiry and do not add you to any mailing lists or databases.
3How We Use Your Data
We use the data we collect solely to:
- →Understand which pages and content are most valuable to our visitors
- →Improve site navigation, performance, and content quality
- →Identify and fix technical issues
- →Measure the effectiveness of our content and affiliate partnerships
- →Respond to contact inquiries
We do not use your data for advertising targeting, behavioral profiling, or any purpose beyond operating and improving the site.
4Cookies & Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the site and collect analytics. Here's a plain-language breakdown of what's used:
| Type | Purpose | Can Opt Out? |
|---|---|---|
| Analytics cookies | Track anonymized page visits and behavior | Yes — browser settings |
| Affiliate cookies | Track referral clicks to broker/exchange partners | Yes — browser settings |
| Ad cookies | Served by Google AdSense (if applicable) | Yes — Google opt-out |
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings at any time. Note that disabling cookies may affect some site functionality. You can also opt out of Google Analytics tracking by using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
5Third-Party Services
Our site uses a small number of trusted third-party services. Each has its own privacy policy governing how data is handled:
- →Vercel: Our hosting provider. May log request metadata (IP, user agent) for security and performance. See: vercel.com/legal/privacy-policy
- →Google Analytics: Analytics platform. Anonymized usage statistics. See: policies.google.com/privacy
- →Google AdSense: Advertising partner (if active). May use cookies for ad delivery. See: policies.google.com/privacy
- →CoinGecko API: Live crypto price data. Requests are server-side — no visitor data is shared. See: coingecko.com/en/privacy
- →Amazon Associates: Affiliate program for product links. May set cookies to track referrals. See: amazon.com/privacy
When you click an affiliate link and visit a third-party site, that site's own privacy policy applies. SleepTrade is not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites.
6Affiliate Disclosure & Data Sharing
SleepTrade participates in affiliate programs. When you click an affiliate link, a tracking cookie may be set by the affiliate partner (such as Amazon, Coinbase, or Robinhood) to attribute any resulting purchase or sign-up to us.
We do not share any personally identifiable information with our affiliate partners. The affiliate tracking is handled entirely by the partner's system using anonymous referral IDs. We receive only aggregate commission reports (e.g., "3 sign-ups this week") — never your personal data.
We are transparent about these relationships. All affiliate links are disclosed per FTC guidelines. Our editorial recommendations are independent of our affiliate arrangements.
7Data Retention & Security
Since we collect no personal accounts or user profiles, there is no personal data stored on SleepTrade's servers. Anonymized analytics data is retained in accordance with our analytics provider's standard retention periods (typically 14–26 months, then automatically deleted).
If you contact us via email, we retain that correspondence only as long as necessary to respond to your inquiry, and no longer.
We implement reasonable technical measures to protect data in transit (HTTPS/TLS encryption) and use reputable, security-audited hosting infrastructure via Vercel.
8Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your data under laws such as GDPR (EU/UK), CCPA (California), or similar regulations. Since we do not collect personal data beyond anonymized analytics, most of these rights are automatically satisfied — but you may:
- →Opt out of analytics by disabling cookies in your browser
- →Request access to any personal data we hold about you
- →Request deletion of any personal data you submitted (e.g., via email contact)
- →Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority
To exercise any of these rights, contact us at sleeptradewin@gmail.com. We will respond within 30 days.
9Children's Privacy
SleepTrade is not intended for children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately at sleeptradewin@gmail.com.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or for other operational reasons. When we update it, we'll change the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
