Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how Razors for Men, an affiliate-supported review and comparison site operated by Kicking Ass Media LLC, collects, uses, and shares information when visitors browse the site, submit a contact form, or interact with marketing links. The policy covers information collected through pages, forms, advertising tags, and analytics tools used on the site. Because the site relies on affiliate relationships and third-party platforms, some data handling may occur outside the site itself and results vary based on the service involved.
By using the site, visitors acknowledge that certain information may be collected automatically and may be shared with service providers and advertising partners as described below. This policy is intended to be clear, but it may not describe every possible third-party practice in detail.
Information We Collect
The site may collect information in several ways. Some data is provided directly by visitors, while other data is collected automatically through browser and device interactions. Depending on the page and traffic source, this may include:
- Contact form submissions, such as name, email address, and message content.
- Cookies and similar technologies used for analytics, preferences, and advertising measurement.
- Analytics data, including page views, session duration, referring page, and general navigation patterns.
- Ad-platform click IDs and tracking parameters, including gclid, msclkid, wbraid, and gbraid.
- Referrer information, which may show the page or campaign that sent a visitor to the site.
- Device, browser, operating system, IP address, and approximate location data derived from that information.
Some of this information is collected automatically by analytics, hosting, or advertising tools. Individual experiences may differ depending on browser settings, consent choices, and privacy controls.
How We Use Information
Information collected through the site may be used to operate the site, understand audience behavior, and measure whether advertising links and content are performing as intended. Common uses may include site analytics, conversion tracking, and responding to contact requests. Some customer reviews describe improved relevance and navigation when analytics are enabled, but results vary based on traffic source and user settings.
Contact form submissions are used to answer questions, handle privacy requests, and follow up on site-related communication. Tracking information may also be used to attribute visits or clicks to advertising campaigns and affiliate partners.
Third Parties
The site works with third parties that may collect or process information under their own terms and privacy policies. These parties may include:
- Google Ads, which may use cookies and click identifiers for ad measurement and remarketing.
- Microsoft Ads, which may use similar identifiers for conversion tracking and campaign analytics.
- Affiliate networks such as MaxBounty, DFO Performance, ClickBank, MaxWeb, and BuyGoods, which may track referrals and commissions from outbound links.
- The hosting provider, which may process server logs, security events, and network diagnostics.
- The email provider, which may store and route messages sent through the contact address.
Each third party may collect, store, or process information according to its own policies. The site does not control those external practices and cannot guarantee how long those services retain data or how they use it after collection.
Cookies & Similar Technologies
Cookies, pixels, tags, and similar technologies may be used to remember preferences, measure traffic, and support advertising attribution. These tools can help the site understand which content or links are visited most often, but they can also enable cross-site measurement and targeted advertising.
Visitors may be able to control cookies through browser settings, consent banners, or platform-level ad settings. Disabling cookies may reduce tracking, but some features may not function as expected. Some customers report fewer personalized ads after changing browser settings, though results vary based on the device and platform used.
Your Rights
Depending on where a visitor lives, privacy laws such as the GDPR or CCPA may provide rights to access, correct, delete, or limit certain processing of personal information. Visitors may also have the right to opt out of targeted advertising or request more details about the categories of data collected.
Requests will be reviewed and handled as required by applicable law, but not every request will apply in every situation. For example, certain records may need to be retained for legal, security, or fraud-prevention purposes. Where a lawful exception applies, the site may decline or limit a request.
Data Retention
Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, including analytics, recordkeeping, compliance, and response to inquiries. Retention periods can vary based on the type of data, the service involved, and legal obligations.
When information is no longer needed, the site may delete it, anonymize it, or allow service providers to do so according to their own retention schedules. Because some data may be stored in backups or logs, complete immediate removal may not always be possible.
Contact for Privacy Requests
Privacy requests may be sent by email to rick@kickingassmedia.com. Please include enough detail to identify the request and the relevant page, form, or interaction if applicable. The site may need to verify identity before completing certain requests.
