6. How Affiliate Tracking Works

Please Note: Affiliate tracking is central to how VoucherCodes360 generates revenue. When you click through to a retailer and complete a purchase, we may earn a small commission — at zero extra cost to you.

6.1 Step-by-Step: How It Works

Here's what happens from the moment you click a deal:

  1. A cookie containing a unique referral code is placed on your device
  2. You're redirected to the retailer's website
  3. If you complete a purchase, the retailer identifies our referral via the cookie
  4. We receive a commission for the successful referral — you pay the same price regardless

6.2 Affiliate Networks We Work With

Commission Junction (CJ)

Cookie Window: 30–90 days

Handles click and purchase tracking for CJ-affiliated retailers

ShareASale

Cookie Window: 30–60 days

Manages referral tracking for ShareASale merchants

Rakuten Advertising

Cookie Window: 7–90 days

Tracks activity through Rakuten's affiliate programme

Impact & Awin

Cookie Window: 30–90 days

Tracks multi-merchant conversions across partner brands

6.3 Opting Out of Affiliate Tracking

Should you block affiliate tracking cookies, we won't be able to earn commissions from your purchases. However, coupons and discounts will still work for you. Keep in mind that disabling cookies entirely may occasionally interfere with redirects to retailer sites.

8. Other Tracking Technologies We Use

8.1 Tracking Pixels & Web Beacons

Tracking pixels — sometimes called web beacons or clear GIFs — are tiny invisible images embedded within web pages or emails. They complement cookies by quietly monitoring how users interact with content.

8.2 What We Use Them For

  • Email Insights: Detect when a newsletter has been opened and which links were clicked
  • Site Analytics: Measure page engagement and visit frequency
  • Campaign Monitoring: Track how well marketing efforts are performing
  • Ad Measurement: Record ad impressions and engagement rates

8.3 Additional Storage Methods

Browser Local Storage

A feature built into modern browsers that lets websites store data on your device without an expiry date. Unlike cookies, it doesn't get transmitted with each request.

Purpose: Save preferences and speed up page loads

Device Fingerprinting

Uses device attributes — like your browser version, screen resolution, and installed plugins — to build a unique profile of your device.

Purpose: Fraud detection, security checks, analytics

Session Storage

Works like local storage, but the data is wiped automatically when you close the browser tab.

Purpose: Managing temporary session data

Server Log Files

Every visit to our site generates server logs that record details like your IP address, browser type, and which pages you viewed.

Purpose: Security monitoring and server performance

9. Your Rights & Preferences

9.1 Giving or Withdrawing Consent

The first time you arrive on VoucherCodes360, a cookie notice will appear letting you decide which categories of cookies to permit.

You may revisit your preferences at any time via your browser settings or the cookie icon located in our site footer.

9.3 Do Not Track Signals

Certain browsers can send a "Do Not Track" (DNT) request to websites, indicating that you'd prefer not to be tracked. However, no consistent technical standard exists for websites to follow these signals.

Our Position: We currently do not act on DNT signals. That said, you can still use the browser controls and opt-out tools described throughout this policy to limit tracking.

9.4 Email Open Tracking

To prevent us from knowing when you open one of our emails, you can:

  • Switch off automatic image loading within your email app
  • Use a privacy-respecting email service
  • Unsubscribe from our emails via the unsubscribe link in any message we send

When an update occurs:

  • The revision date at the top of this page will be updated

  • Registered users may receive an email alert regarding significant changes

We recommend checking back here occasionally to stay up to date on how we handle cookies and similar technologies.
