When you visit the site, we and our third-party partners may automatically collect limited, non-sensitive technical data through cookies and similar technologies, such as:

If you email us or use our contact form, we receive your name, email address, and the contents of your message. We use this only to reply to you.
If you subscribe to our email list, we collect your email address to send you the guides, checklists, and updates you asked for. We store it with our email service provider. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every email.
4. How we use information
We use the information described above to:
- Operate, secure, and improve the site
- Understand which content is useful and how people use the site
- Display advertising and measure how it performs
- Track affiliate referrals so we can earn commissions

5. Cookies and consent
Cookies are small files stored on your device. We and our partners use them to keep the site working, measure traffic, show ads, and track affiliate referrals.
Where the law requires it (for example, in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland), we ask for your consent through a cookie banner before using cookies for analytics and advertising. You can change or withdraw your choice at any time using the cookie settings link in the footer of the site. You can also control cookies through your browser settings by blocking, deleting, or getting alerts about them. Blocking some cookies may affect how the site or its ads work.
6. Google Analytics and other analytics tools
We use Google Analytics and similar analytics tools to understand how visitors use the site. These tools use cookies and may collect your IP address and browsing activity. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. To learn how Google uses data from sites that use its services, visit policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
7. Advertising, including Google AdSense
We display third-party advertising on this site, including ads served by Google AdSense and other advertising partners. These companies may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to show ads based on your visits to this site and other websites.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other sites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and other sites on the internet.
- You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google’s Ads Settings at adssettings.google.com.
- You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalized advertising at www.aboutads.info.
- If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we ask for your consent before showing personalized ads.
We do not control the cookies or practices of these third parties. Please review their privacy policies.
8. Affiliate links
This site contains affiliate links, including links to Amazon and other retailers and brands. When you click an affiliate link, the retailer or affiliate network may place a cookie on your device to record the referral. If you make a qualifying purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you.
Workspace Tested is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases.
Retailers and affiliate networks handle their own data under their own privacy policies. We do not receive your payment or account information from these companies.
9. Sponsored links and content
Some links or content on this site may be sponsored or paid placements. We label them clearly, for example as “Sponsored” or “Ad,” and mark sponsored links with the appropriate link attributes. Sponsorships do not change our editorial opinions. See our Affiliate Disclosure for details.
10. Social media
If you visit our social media profiles, such as Pinterest, or click from them to our site, those platforms collect data under their own privacy policies. We do not control how they use it.
11. How we share information
We do not sell your personal information. Information may be processed by service providers that help us run the site, such as hosting, analytics, advertising, email, and affiliate networks. We may also disclose information if required by law, or to protect our rights, our users, or the security of the site.
12. Data retention and security
We keep contact messages only as long as needed to respond to them and for reasonable record-keeping. We keep email subscribers’ addresses until they unsubscribe. Analytics and advertising partners keep data according to their own policies. We use reasonable measures to protect information, but no website or internet transmission is completely secure.
13. Your rights and choices
Depending on where you live, you may have rights over your personal information.
- California residents: Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), you may have the right to know what personal information is collected, to request deletion or correction, and to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information for advertising. We do not sell personal information for money, but some advertising and analytics cookies may count as “sharing” under California law. You can opt out using our cookie settings or your browser settings.
- Residents of the EEA, UK, and Switzerland: You may have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to the processing of your personal data, and to withdraw consent at any time. Our legal bases for processing are your consent (for advertising and analytics cookies and our email list) and our legitimate interest in operating and improving the site.
- Everyone: You can limit tracking through your browser settings, opt-out tools, and the links in this policy.
To make a request, email hello@workspacetested.com. We may need to verify your identity before acting on it.
14. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control
Some browsers send “Do Not Track” or Global Privacy Control signals. Where required by law, we honor opt-out signals for advertising cookies. Some third-party partners may not respond to Do Not Track signals.
15. Children’s privacy
This site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, email us and we will delete it.
