Information we process
The MVP does not require reader accounts, profiles, comments, or checkout information. We may record limited anonymous events such as an outbound retailer-link click, the page and product involved, coarse device class, and campaign parameters.
Click deduplication
To suppress accidental duplicate events, the service may use a random first-party session cookie and a short-lived cryptographic deduplication key. The key expires within 24 hours and is not stored with long-term click events.
- We do not use an IP address in the deduplication key.
- We do not use a full or truncated user agent in the key.
- We do not build a long-term visitor profile from the key.
Pinterest OAuth demonstration
234 Picks, the product-comparison service published at 234cs.com, may temporarily offer a Pinterest OAuth connection for API review and integration testing. Pinterest presents its own login and consent screens before returning a short-lived authorization code to this website.
The current demonstration exchanges that code on the server and makes read-only requests for the authorized Pinterest account, boards, and aggregate trend keywords. It returns only a limited result summary to the authorized browser. The demonstration does not persist Pinterest access tokens, refresh tokens, account details, board details, or OAuth results.
Pinterest applies its own privacy practices to its login and authorization pages. You can decline authorization or revoke application access through your Pinterest account controls.
Third-party destinations
When you follow a retailer or source link, the destination website applies its own privacy practices. Review that website’s policy before providing personal information.
Contact and changes
We may update this policy as analytics, affiliate, or external-service integrations change. Material changes will be reflected on this page with a new update date.
