CameraReview operates camerareviews.com. This policy explains what data the site collects, why it is collected, who it is shared with, and the choices you have. You do not need an account to use the site, and we never ask you for personal details to read it.
We do not ask for your name, address, phone number or payment details, and the site has no login, no newsletter sign-up and no comments.
The site itself stores two things in your browser's local storage: the products you have added to a comparison, and whether you prefer metric or imperial units. These stay on your device, are not sent to us, and are cleared when you clear your browser data. Advertising and analytics cookies are described in their own sections. Retailers we link to set their own cookies under their own policies once you leave our site.
The Website works with Mediavine to manage third-party interest-based advertising appearing on the Website. Mediavine serves content and advertisements when you visit the Website, which may use first and third-party cookies. A cookie is a small text file which is sent to your computer or mobile device (referred to in this policy as a “device”) by the web server so that a website can remember some information about your browsing activity on the Website.
First party cookies are created by the website that you are visiting. A third-party cookie is frequently used in behavioral advertising and analytics and is created by a domain other than the website you are visiting. Third-party cookies, tags, pixels, beacons and other similar technologies (collectively, “Tags”) may be placed on the Website to monitor interaction with advertising content and to target and optimize advertising. Each internet browser has functionality so that you can block both first and third-party cookies and clear your browser’s cache. The "help" feature of the menu bar on most browsers will tell you how to stop accepting new cookies, how to receive notification of new cookies, how to disable existing cookies and how to clear your browser’s cache. For more information about cookies and how to disable them, you can consult the information at All About Cookies.
Without cookies you may not be able to take full advantage of the Website content and features. Please note that rejecting cookies does not mean that you will no longer see ads when you visit our Site. In the event you opt-out, you will still see non-personalized advertisements on the Website.
The Website collects the following data using a cookie when serving personalized ads:
Mediavine Partners (companies listed below with whom Mediavine shares data) may also use this data to link to other end user information the partner has independently collected to deliver targeted advertisements. Mediavine Partners may also separately collect data about end users from other sources, such as advertising IDs or pixels, and link that data to data collected from Mediavine publishers in order to provide interest-based advertising across your online experience, including devices, browsers and apps. This data includes usage data, cookie information, device information, information about interactions between users and advertisements and websites, geolocation data, traffic data, and information about a visitor’s referral source to a particular website. Mediavine Partners may also create unique IDs to create audience segments, which are used to provide targeted advertising.
If you would like more information about this practice and to know your choices to opt-in or opt-out of this data collection, please visit National Advertising Initiative opt out page. You may also visit Digital Advertising Alliance website and Network Advertising Initiative website to learn more information about interest-based advertising. You may download the AppChoices app at Digital Advertising Alliance’s AppChoices app to opt out in connection with mobile apps, or use the platform controls on your mobile device to opt out.

CameraReview is reader-supported. When you buy through links on our site we may earn an affiliate commission. This never affects our scores. Outbound retailer links carry an affiliate tag so the retailer knows the visit came from us. That tag identifies this site, not you, and we receive only aggregate reports of clicks and orders — never your name, address or payment details. Once you land on a retailer's site you are covered by their privacy policy, not this one.
You have the right to access, correct, delete or export your personal data, to object to processing based on legitimate interests, and to complain to your data protection authority (in the UK, the Information Commissioner's Office). Email us using the address below and we will respond within one month.
We do not sell personal data for money. However, interest-based advertising involves sharing device and browsing data with advertising partners, which laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (as amended by the CPRA) and similar state laws treat as a "sale" or "sharing" of personal information for targeted advertising. Residents of California, Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia and other states with comparable laws can opt out of that targeted advertising using the industry opt-out links in the Mediavine section above, or the "Update Privacy Settings" link our consent banner places on the site. You may also request access to or deletion of your personal information by emailing us. We will not discriminate against you for exercising any of these rights.
This site is aimed at adults buying camera equipment. It is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has given us personal information, email us and we will delete it.
Server and security logs are kept for a short period for troubleshooting and abuse prevention. Analytics data is retained under the retention setting in Google Analytics. Emails are kept for as long as needed to handle your enquiry. Advertising data is retained by Mediavine and its partners under their own policies, linked above.
We update this page when the site's data practices change, and the date at the top always shows the current version.
Privacy questions, or a request to access or delete your data — email support@camerareviews.com.
