Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how FungusReviews, an affiliate-supported review and comparison site operated by SPJL Ventures, LLC, collects, uses, and shares information when visitors access the site, submit contact requests, or interact with links and advertisements. It covers information collected through the website and related communications, and it applies whether visitors arrive directly or through referral sources.
This policy is intended to be clear about the site’s practices, though it is not a substitute for legal advice. As with most online publishing platforms, some data collection is necessary for analytics, advertising measurement, and basic site functionality, and results may vary depending on how a visitor uses the site and the privacy settings on their device or browser.
Information We Collect
FungusReviews may collect information in several ways. Some data is provided directly, while other data is collected automatically through standard web technologies.
- Contact form submissions, including name, email address, and the contents of the message.
- Cookies and similar identifiers used for analytics, site preferences, and advertising measurement.
- Ad-platform click IDs such as gclid, msclkid, wbraid, and gbraid when a visitor arrives through an ad click.
- Referrer information, which may show the previous page or source that led a visitor to the site.
- Device and browser information, such as browser type, operating system, approximate location derived from IP address, and general usage data.
Some information is collected automatically by analytics and advertising tools. In many cases, this data is aggregated or pseudonymized, but the exact scope may depend on the third-party service involved and the visitor’s consent choices.
How We Use Information
Information is used to operate and improve the site, understand which pages receive attention, measure whether visitors complete actions after viewing content, and respond to messages sent through the contact form. The site may also use data to detect abuse, maintain security, and diagnose technical issues.
Conversion tracking and analytics help estimate which content or referral sources are driving traffic, but those insights are limited and may not fully reflect a visitor’s final purchasing decision. Any performance analysis should be understood as directional, not definitive, and results vary based on traffic source, device settings, and user behavior.
When a visitor contacts the site, submitted details may be used to answer questions, process requests, or follow up on privacy-related inquiries. The site does not claim that every message will require the same response time, since volume and issue complexity can differ.
Third Parties
FungusReviews may share or route information through third-party services that support advertising, analytics, hosting, or email delivery. These providers may have access to data only as needed to perform their functions, subject to their own privacy practices.

- Microsoft Ads — used for ad delivery and click attribution.
- MaxBounty — affiliate network and performance tracking.

These services may collect or receive cookies, click identifiers, IP addresses, and related technical data. Their use of such data is governed by their own policies, and visitors may wish to review those policies directly.
Cookies & Similar Technologies
Cookies, pixels, tags, and similar technologies may be used to remember preferences, measure traffic, understand engagement, and support advertising attribution. Some cookies are essential to basic site operation, while others assist with analytics or marketing measurement.
Visitors can often control cookies through browser settings and, in some cases, through consent tools or platform-specific ad settings. Blocking or deleting cookies may affect how some features work and may reduce the accuracy of analytics or conversion reporting.
Where legally required, the site may request or honor consent choices before setting non-essential cookies. Even when consent is not required, visitors may still have browser-level options to limit tracking.
Your Rights
Depending on where a visitor lives, privacy laws may provide rights to access, correct, delete, or limit certain uses of personal information. Visitors may also have the right to opt out of targeted advertising or certain forms of data sharing.
For individuals covered by the GDPR, rights may include access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, and objection, subject to lawful limitations. For individuals covered by the CCPA or similar U.S. state laws, rights may include disclosure, deletion, correction, and the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, where applicable.
Requests can be submitted using the contact details below. Verification may be required before a request is processed, and some information may need to be retained for legal, security, or recordkeeping reasons. Any response will depend on the nature of the request and applicable law, so outcomes may vary.
Data Retention
Personal information is retained only as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law. Contact form messages may be kept for customer service, compliance, or recordkeeping purposes.
Analytics, advertising, and log data may be stored for varying periods based on the settings of the relevant service providers and the site’s operational needs. Retention periods can differ across systems, so visitors should not assume a single fixed schedule applies to every category of information.
