Cookie Policy
Effective Date: March 17, 2026
1. Introduction
At WeExplainTech.com, we prioritize the digital privacy and security of our B2B readers, fabrication shop owners, IT directors, and corporate procurement teams. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them on our platform, and your choices regarding their management.
Because our publication is strictly ad-free and does not utilize third-party display networks (such as Google AdSense or Mediavine), our use of cookies is highly restricted and heavily minimized compared to standard consumer websites.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are downloaded to your computer, tablet, or mobile device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognize your device and store some information about your preferences or past actions. This helps deliver a faster, more seamless browsing experience and allows the site architecture to function properly.
3. The WeExplainTech Ad-Free Guarantee
We do not use invasive, third-party advertising cookies. We do not permit data brokers or advertising algorithms to place retargeting cookies on your browser through our site. Your corporate research into high-ticket commercial machinery, SaaS enterprise software, AI automation bots, and industrial technology remains entirely your own business. We will not follow you across the internet with display ads for products or software you viewed on WeExplainTech.com.
4. How We Use Cookies
Our platform utilizes cookies for three specific, highly restricted purposes:
A. Essential & Functional Cookies (Strictly Necessary):
These cookies are essential for the core operation of WeExplainTech.com. Because our platform is hosted on secure Google architecture, these functional cookies ensure that our custom HTML/CSS formatting loads correctly, our dynamic spec tables display properly, and the website remains secure against automated scraping bots. You cannot opt out of these cookies without severely impacting the site’s usability.
B. Affiliate Tracking Cookies (Amazon Associates & B2B SaaS Networks):
Our primary revenue model is performance-based B2B affiliate marketing. When you click a customized "Check Commercial Pricing" button for hardware, or a "Start Free Trial" button for enterprise software, an affiliate tracking cookie is temporarily placed in your browser by the respective network (e.g., Amazon Associates, PartnerStack, or Impact).
- Purpose: This cookie simply informs the marketplace or software vendor that WeExplainTech referred you to their platform.
- Duration: Amazon cookies typically remain active for 24 hours. B2B SaaS network cookies (for software and CRMs) typically remain active for 30 to 90 days, depending on the vendor's specific partnership terms.
- Privacy: These cookies do not capture your name, corporate financial details, or credit card information. They solely track the referral origin so we can earn a commission if you make a qualifying purchase or software upgrade.
C. Analytical Performance Cookies:
We use standard, anonymized analytics to understand how our B2B audience interacts with our content. These cookies count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our technical reviews. They help us know which pages are the most and least popular (e.g., seeing if readers prefer CNC router specs over Enterprise CRM comparisons). All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous.
5. How to Manage and Control Cookies
You have full control over your browser data. If you prefer to restrict, block, or delete cookies from WeExplainTech.com or any other website, you can do so through your web browser settings.
Please refer to your browser’s official help documentation (Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox, etc.) for instructions on how to manage your cookie preferences.
Note: If you choose to disable affiliate tracking cookies, we will not receive a commission if you purchase equipment or software based on our technical reviews, but your ability to read and access our content will remain completely unaffected.
6. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in global privacy regulations or adjustments to our affiliate partnerships. Any changes will be immediately posted to this page.
