Privacy

ScentSpotted has no accounts, no forms and no cookies. Here is the little we do measure, and why.

Last updated October 15, 2026

No cookies

We don’t set cookies or use other storage in your browser to track you, so there is no cookie banner. We don’t sell data, and we don’t run display ads.

Page views

We count visits with Vercel Web Analytics, which works without cookies. It records which pages are viewed, the referring site, the country, and the type of device, browser and operating system. It doesn’t follow you across other websites, and we can’t use it to tell who you are.

Searches

When you search, we log the search anonymously so we know what people look for and which celebrities and perfumes to add next. A search is logged when a results page is shown or when you open a suggestion, not on every keystroke. The log holds:

  • the words you searched for, in lowercase;
  • how many results it found;
  • whether it came from the results page or a suggestion;
  • the date and time.

It holds no IP address, no device identifier and nothing else about you, so a search can’t be traced back to you. Please don’t type personal details into the search box.

Buy link clicks

When you click a buy button, we log the click so we know which links are useful. The log holds:

  • which buy link was clicked (the perfume and the retailer);
  • the page it was clicked on;
  • the date and time.

It holds no IP address, no device identifier and nothing else about you.

Hosting

The site is hosted on Vercel and its content is stored with Supabase. Like any web host, their servers handle technical request data, such as your IP address, to deliver pages and protect the service. That data is handled under their own privacy policies.

When you leave ScentSpotted

Buy buttons take you to retailers such as Amazon, brand sites or other stores. Once you are on their site, their own privacy policy and cookies apply. Our links are plain links today; if we add affiliate links later, the retailer will be able to tell that you came from us. See our affiliate disclosure.

If you email us

If you write to us, we use your email address and message only to answer you and handle your request, and we don’t add you to any list.

Changes and questions

If what we collect changes, we will update this page and its date first. Questions about privacy are welcome on our contact page.
