Privacy Policy

OralRadar is an independent affiliate review site run by Eduardo Silva, a product tester and not a dentist. Its pages are hosted on Google Cloud Storage. There is no login, account, shopping cart, or comment section. You can choose to submit an email address to the newsletter or contact me by email, and those two actions are explained below.

What this site collects

The site does not collect payment details or create visitor accounts. Four types of data may still be processed:

• Standard server request data. The pages live on Google Cloud Storage, so Google is the host. When your browser asks for a page, Google’s servers receive the usual request information: your IP address, your browser and device type, and which page you asked for. That processing is Google’s, under its own infrastructure terms. I don’t store a separate copy.
• Usage analytics. The site uses Google Analytics 4 to count what gets read. Details in the next section, including how to turn it off.
• Newsletter signups. If you submit the newsletter form, the email service provider receives your address and the technical information needed to process the signup and deliver messages.
• Contact email. If you email me, Google processes the address, message, headers, and any attachment through Gmail. I receive that information so I can respond.

I do not add an advertising network, Meta Pixel, cross-site advertising profile, or data broker to that list. I do not collect your card number or see the payment details used on a seller’s checkout.

If any of that changes, this page changes with it, and I’ll say so plainly.

Cookies and analytics

Two Google tools are involved here. ClickBank may also use tracking technologies after you follow an affiliate link. I do not use these services to build an advertising profile about you.

Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager, and your choices

To see which reviews people read and where a page loses their attention, this site uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4). Google Tag Manager (GTM) may manage the analytics configuration; GA4 can load directly when GTM is unavailable. GA4 may set first-party cookies such as _ga and _ga_*. It can record page views, engagement time, interaction events, the referring page, an approximate region, and browser or device information.

Analytics is enabled by default when you first visit, unless your browser sends an active Global Privacy Control signal or this browser already holds a saved opt-out. The privacy panel does not open automatically. You can open Privacy choices in the footer at any time and turn analytics off or back on. You can also block or clear cookies in your browser or install Google’s official Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

The site remembers your analytics setting in this browser’s local storage under oralradar_analytics_consent. The saved value is only granted or denied; it is not an advertising identifier and is not added to a newsletter or contact record. If you clear this site’s storage, the saved setting disappears and analytics returns to the default described above unless Global Privacy Control is active.

Four boundaries matter:

• The purpose is site measurement. I use the reports to understand and improve the site, not to build a cross-site advertising profile.
• Advertising remains disabled. The Google Consent Mode settings ad_storage, ad_user_data, and ad_personalization remain denied even when analytics is on. Allowing analytics does not turn those advertising settings on.
• The analytics events do not include the information you type. The implementation is configured not to send names, email addresses, message text, form-field values, or other personally identifiable information to GA4. It may record page context and interactions such as an affiliate-link click, a share, a contact-link click, or a newsletter submission attempt or successful signup. A newsletter success event contains no email address.
• Google processes the analytics data. Google acts as the analytics provider under its own Privacy Policy. Google also prohibits Analytics customers from sending information that Google could recognize as personally identifiable information, as explained in its PII guidance.

Turning analytics off stops this site from sending new GA4 events from that browser. It does not delete data already processed by Google, change the standard request logs created by Google Cloud Storage, or control tracking on ClickBank, a seller’s site, or any other site you visit after leaving OralRadar.

Data collected through Google Search Console

I also use Google Search Console. It provides aggregated reports about which Google searches lead to the site and which pages appear in search results. Search Console verification uses a small HTML verification file published at the root of the site. That file proves control of the site; it does not add visitor-side analytics code or set a Search Console cookie through OralRadar.

Affiliate attribution handled by ClickBank

Some product links pass through the visible /go redirect on this site, then through a ClickBank tracking link to the seller’s landing page. ClickBank’s attribution may use a first-party cookie, device fingerprinting, and a Hop ID carried in the URL. The exact combination depends on the link, browser, and seller setup. A cookie is therefore not the only possible attribution method.

This tracking follows ClickBank’s privacy practices. It is used to decide whether a later purchase should be credited to this site. ClickBank does not give me your card details. I receive affiliate reporting about credited transactions. Blocking cookies may reduce tracking, but it may not prevent attribution through every method. To avoid an affiliate referral, visit the seller without using a tracking link from this site.

The affiliate disclosure page explains how the commission side works.

Email signups

Newsletter signup is currently paused. The email fields and subscribe buttons shown on OralRadar are disabled and are not connected to an email service provider. No newsletter address is submitted, transmitted, or stored by the site in this state.

This section will be updated before email signup is enabled with the provider used, the data it receives, the purpose and retention terms, and a link to its privacy policy.

Contact email and retention

The contact link opens your own email service. If you send a message to oralradar@gmail.com, Google provides the Gmail inbox and processes the message under the Google Privacy Policy. I use the message to answer the question, investigate a correction, handle a privacy request, or discuss the business purpose named in the email.

Routine messages are deleted within 12 months after the last exchange. I may retain a correction record, privacy request, transaction-related dispute, or business correspondence longer when it is reasonably needed to document what was resolved or meet a legal obligation. You may ask me to delete your message sooner, subject to those limited recordkeeping needs.

Your privacy rights

This site is written for a US audience, but anyone can land here, so here’s the plain version.

If you’re in California. The California Attorney General’s CCPA page explains when that law applies and the rights it creates. OralRadar does not sell personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. OralRadar treats an active Global Privacy Control signal as an opt-out and disables this site’s analytics; whether the law gives you additional rights depends on the circumstances.

If you’re in the EU or UK. Depending on the law that applies, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data, restrict or object to processing, withdraw consent where consent is the basis, and complain to a data protection authority. Hosting logs, analytics, newsletter signups, and contact email are the relevant processing described on this page. On this site, analytics is enabled by default unless Global Privacy Control or a saved opt-out disables it; Privacy choices stops new analytics events from this browser. That operational default is not a claim that the same legal basis or consent rule applies in every jurisdiction. For the newsletter, use the unsubscribe link to withdraw your signup choice.

Third parties keep their own records. Data held by ClickBank, Google as host or analytics provider, Gmail, or the email service provider also falls under that company’s policy. Ask me and I will help identify the right provider for a request.

To make a request, or to flag an error on this page, email me at oralradar@gmail.com or use the contact page. I reply within a few business days.

Changes to this page

When the site’s data practices change, this page changes and the “last updated” date at the top moves with it. If a provider or tool is added, removed, or used for a new purpose, the description here must change too.

For the rules covering how you may use what’s published here, and the reminder that all of it is general information rather than dental advice, see the terms. Whatever you read on this site, a question about your own mouth belongs with a dentist.
