Privacy Policy

Who we are

Mr Hippo is an editorial affiliate website that publishes buying guides, comparisons, recommendations, and workspace-related content focused on desk setups, home office gear, ergonomics, monitor arms, desk mats, productivity tools, and related categories.

Throughout this policy, “Mr Hippo,” “we,” “our,” and “us” refer to the website available at mrhippo.co.

Information we collect

We may collect information directly from you, automatically through your device or browser, and from third-party services that help operate or measure the website.

We may also collect information through cookies, analytics tools, ad technologies, affiliate tracking systems, and similar technologies used by us or our partners.

How we use information

We may use information we collect to:

• Operate, maintain, and improve the website and its content.
• Understand how visitors use the website and which pages perform well.
• Respond to inquiries, feedback, or support requests.
• Monitor and analyze trends, traffic, and technical performance.
• Measure the effectiveness of affiliate links, content, and campaigns.
• Detect, prevent, or address abuse, fraud, security issues, or technical problems.
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our site policies.

Affiliate links and referrals

Some pages on Mr Hippo contain affiliate links. This means we may earn a commission if you click a link and later make a purchase or complete another qualifying action through a merchant or affiliate partner.

Affiliate partners and networks may use cookies, tracking pixels, or similar tools to attribute referrals, measure performance, and record qualifying purchases. These technologies may collect or receive information about your visit, browser, device, and interactions with affiliate links.

Cookies and similar technologies

We and our partners may use cookies, pixels, tags, local browser storage, or similar technologies to remember preferences, understand site usage, improve performance, measure traffic, and support affiliate attribution or advertising.

These technologies may be used for purposes such as:

• Keeping the website functioning properly.
• Understanding how users move through the site.
• Remembering settings or preferences.
• Measuring traffic sources and page performance.
• Tracking referrals from affiliate links.
• Supporting ad measurement, frequency management, or personalized advertising, where applicable.

You can usually control cookies through your browser settings. Depending on your location, you may also be shown a consent or preferences tool for non-essential cookies. Blocking some cookies may affect site functionality or how affiliate/referral tracking works.

Analytics and performance

We may use analytics tools to understand traffic, popular pages, content performance, and general site usage. These tools may use cookies or similar technologies and may collect information such as IP address, device information, browser data, referral sources, and on-site behavior.

If you use browser controls, privacy extensions, or consent tools that limit analytics storage or tracking, some analytics functions may not operate fully.

Advertising and third-party tools

Mr Hippo may use third-party services such as analytics providers, affiliate networks, embedded content providers, advertising partners, email tools, security services, or web hosting providers to help operate or improve the website.

If we use advertising platforms or services that deliver personalized ads, those providers may use cookies or similar technologies to show relevant ads, limit ad repetition, measure campaigns, and perform reporting. Your browser and privacy settings, consent choices, and provider-level opt-out tools may affect how this works.

Where relevant, users can learn more about how Google uses information in its services and may manage some ad settings through Google’s tools and policy pages.

How information may be shared

We do not sell personal information in the ordinary sense of selling customer lists. We may share information in limited situations such as:

• With service providers that help host, maintain, secure, analyze, or operate the website.
• With affiliate networks or partners when needed for referral tracking, reporting, or commission attribution.
• With analytics, advertising, fraud prevention, or technical service providers.
• To comply with law, regulation, legal process, or government request.
• To protect rights, safety, property, users, or the website.
• As part of a business transfer such as a merger, acquisition, sale, or asset transfer.

Data retention

We retain information for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this policy, including to operate the website, maintain records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information, the reason it was collected, legal requirements, and whether the information is needed for security, fraud prevention, or reporting.

Security

We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures intended to protect information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure. However, no internet transmission or storage system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your rights and choices

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, or withdrawal of consent where consent is the basis for processing.

You may also be able to:

• Request details about the information we hold about you.
• Ask that inaccurate information be corrected.
• Request deletion of information, subject to legal or operational exceptions.
• Manage cookies through your browser or consent settings.
• Opt out of some personalized advertising through provider tools where available.

Mr Hippo is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information through the website, contact us and we will review the issue and take appropriate action.

International visitors

If you access the website from outside the country where our website infrastructure or service providers operate, your information may be processed in jurisdictions with different data protection laws than those in your location.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the website, legal requirements, business practices, or third-party services. When we make material changes, we may update the effective date above and revise the policy content accordingly.
