Effective Date: April 22, 2026
1. Introduction
Welcome to What’s Good at Trader Joe’s? (the "Site"). We value your privacy and want to be transparent about how we collect and use data. Because we focus on products available within the United States, this policy is designed to comply with U.S. privacy expectations.
2. Information Collection
Comments: When you leave a comment on a review, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as your IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection.
Analytics: We use tools like Google Analytics to understand which reviews are trending. This tracks non-identifying info like your general geographic location (city/state), device type, and which "Must-Buy" items you clicked on.
Cookies: We use cookies to remember your preferences (like your name if you leave a comment) and to help our site run efficiently.
3. Advertising and Third Parties
To keep the reviews coming, we may work with third-party advertising networks.
Ad Networks: Partners like Google AdSense or other MCM providers may use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this site and other sites on the internet.
Affiliate Links: If we link to a product and you make a purchase, we may receive a small commission. This does not change the price for you or impact our review's "honesty meter."
4. Data Retention
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
5. Your Rights
You have the right to:
Opt-out of personalized advertising via your Google Ad Settings.
Request that we delete any comments you have posted on the site.
Disable cookies through your individual browser settings.
6. Contact Information
