This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and safeguard your data when you visit our website, rcmodelshub.com, or engage with our content, including our affiliate links, blog, and contact forms. By using our site, you agree to the practices described below.

1. Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information:

  • Automatically Collected Information: When you visit RCModelsHub, we may collect non-personal data such as your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, and browsing behavior (e.g., pages viewed, time spent). This is gathered through cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies, including analytics tools like Google Analytics.

  • Affiliate Link Data: Clicking affiliate links (e.g., to Tower Hobbies, Hosim) may involve tracking by our partners to attribute commissions. This may include cookies or unique identifiers, as outlined in our Affiliate Disclosure.
  • No Account Data Collection: We do not offer user accounts, so no account-related data, such as login credentials or profile information, is collected.

We use your data to:

  • Improve our website’s functionality, content, and user experience (e.g., analyzing browsing patterns to enhance our RC Models guides).
  • Respond to your inquiries or feedback sent via contact forms or email.
  • Facilitate affiliate partnerships by tracking clicks and purchases, ensuring we earn commissions at no extra cost to you.

RCModelsHub uses cookies and similar tools to enhance your experience and analyze site performance. Cookies may:

  • Remember your preferences (e.g., language settings).
  • Track affiliate link clicks for commission purposes.
  • Collect analytics data (e.g., via Google Analytics) to understand user behavior.

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings, but disabling cookies may affect site functionality.

4. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share data with:

  • Third-Party Service Providers: Tools like Google Analytics or email platforms to support site operations. These providers are bound by privacy agreements.
  • Affiliate Partners: Retailers (e.g., AMain Hobbies, Nitrotek) may receive tracking data when you click affiliate links, as described in our Affiliate Disclosure.
  • Legal Requirements: If required by law, we may disclose data to comply with legal obligations or protect our rights.

We take reasonable measures to protect your information, including secure hosting and encryption where applicable. However, no online platform is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

6. Third-Party Links

Our site includes affiliate links to third-party websites (e.g., Horizon Hobby). These sites have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their practices. Please review their policies before providing personal information.
