🍪 USAGlowGuide Cookie Policy

Last updated: January 2026

At USAGlowGuide, we believe in a transparent, “skin-first” approach to your digital privacy. This policy explains how we use cookies to personalize your beauty and fashion experience.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us remember your preferences. In 2026, we also recognize browser-level signals like Global Privacy Control (GPC), which automatically tell us if you prefer not to be tracked.

2. How We Use Cookies

We categorize our cookies into four specific areas so you can choose exactly what you share:

  • Strictly Necessary: Essential for basic site functions like secure logins and loading our “Daily Deals Hub”. (Consent not required).
  • Preferences: Used to remember your “Glow Guide” settings, such as your favorite beauty categories or region-specific shopping deals.
  • Analytics (e.g., Google Analytics 4): Helps us understand which viral products our community is searching for.
  • Marketing & Affiliate Tracking: These cookies allow our affiliate partners (like Amazon and RewardStyle) to recognize when you make a purchase from our links so we can earn a commission.

3. Third-Party Beauty Partners

To bring you the most relevant trends, we work with trusted third parties. These partners may place their own cookies to help with ad retargeting and campaign measurement:

  • Amazon Associates: For tracking shopping cart conversions.
  • Social Media (TikTok, Instagram): To show you trending beauty reels and tutorials.

4. Your Choices & “The Power to Reject”

In 2026, rejecting cookies must be as easy as accepting them. You can manage your preferences through:

  • Our Consent Banner: Use the “Customize” option on your first visit to toggle specific categories on or off.
  • Browser Settings: You can disable or delete existing cookies at any time via your browser’s privacy menu.
  • Withdrawal: You can change or withdraw your consent at any time via the “Privacy Settings” link in our footer.

5. Consent & Accessibility

We aim for our cookie banner to be WCAG 2.2 compliant, ensuring it is easy to use for everyone, including those using screen readers or keyboard navigation.
