Privacy Policy

Last updated 2026-06-01

Coin Curator is a price-tracking and editorial site for graded US coins. This policy explains what information we collect, why, and the choices you have. We keep data collection to the minimum needed to run the site.

Information We Collect

• Account data. If you create an account to use the Vault (your personal watchlist), authentication is handled by our identity provider, Clerk. We store the account identifier and the coins you save. We never see or store your password.
• Usage data. Standard server and analytics logs — pages viewed, referring site, approximate region, browser type — used to understand traffic and improve the site.
• No payment data. Coin Curator does not sell products and does not collect or store any payment-card information. Purchases happen on third-party retailer and auction sites under their own policies.

Cookies & Affiliate Tracking

Outbound links to retailers and auction houses may carry an affiliate tracking parameter so partners know Coin Curator referred you. If you complete a qualifying purchase within the partner's attribution window, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Those partners — including the Amazon Associates program and the eBay Partner Network — set their own cookies on their sites, governed by their privacy policies. See our Affiliate Disclosure for details on how we monetize.

How We Use Information

• To operate the Vault watchlist and remember the coins you save.
• To measure aggregate traffic and improve content and performance.
• To detect, prevent, and respond to abuse, fraud, or security issues.

We do not sell your personal information.

Third-Party Services

We rely on a small number of vetted providers: Clerk (authentication), our hosting provider for serving the site, and the affiliate networks named above for outbound links. Each processes data only as needed to provide its service and under its own privacy terms.

Your Choices

• You can browse the catalog and blog without an account.
• You can delete your account at any time, which removes your saved Vault data.
• You can block or clear cookies in your browser; affiliate attribution simply won't apply.

Children's Privacy

Coin Curator is intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as the site evolves. Material changes will be reflected by the "last updated" date above.
