Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 24, 2026
MeetPeptide ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website meetpeptide.com. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what choices you have.
The short version: We don't collect personal information. We use privacy-friendly analytics that don't track you. Some of our links are affiliate links that use cookies from third-party partners — we explain exactly which ones below and how to opt out.
1. Information We Collect
Analytics (Umami — No Personal Data)
We use Umami, a privacy-focused, self-hosted analytics platform. Umami:
- Does not use cookies
- Does not collect personal information (no IP addresses, no device fingerprints)
- Does not track you across websites
- Only collects anonymous, aggregate page view data (which pages are visited, referrer, browser type, country)
- Is fully GDPR and CCPA compliant by design
We chose Umami specifically because it respects your privacy. We do not use Google Analytics.
Newsletter Subscription
If you subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address. We use this solely to send you peptide research updates. You can unsubscribe at any time via the link in every email. We do not sell, rent, or share your email with third parties.
Information We Do NOT Collect
- We do not collect names, phone numbers, or mailing addresses
- We do not use login systems or user accounts
- We do not use contact forms that store data
- We do not collect payment information (all purchases happen on third-party sites)
2. Cookies & Tracking Technologies
MeetPeptide itself does not set any first-party cookies. However, when you click on affiliate links on our site, our third-party affiliate partners may set cookies on your device to track referrals. Here is a complete list:
| Partner | Cookie Type | Duration | Purpose |
|---|---|---|---|
| Amazon Associates | Tracking cookie | 24 hours | Tracks purchases made after clicking our Amazon links so we earn a commission |
| CJ (Commission Junction) | Tracking cookie | Up to 30 days | Tracks referrals to HealthLabs.com and other CJ advertisers. CJ uses cookies and similar technologies to attribute sales to publishers. |
| Swiss Chems | Referral tracking | Varies | Tracks purchases made through our Swiss Chems referral links |
These cookies are only set when you click on an affiliate link — not by simply visiting MeetPeptide.

4. How We Use Information
The limited information we collect (anonymous analytics, newsletter emails) is used solely to:
- Understand which content is most useful to our readers
- Improve site content and user experience
- Send newsletter updates to subscribers who opted in
We do not sell, trade, or transfer any information to third parties for marketing purposes.
5. Third-Party Links
MeetPeptide contains links to external websites (Amazon, Swiss Chems, HealthLabs.com, PubMed, clinical trial registries, etc.). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these sites. We encourage you to read their privacy policies when you visit them.
6. Children's Privacy
MeetPeptide is not intended for children under 18. We do not knowingly collect information from minors. Our content is educational material intended for adults interested in health research.
7. Data Security
Our site is served over HTTPS with TLS encryption. We use security headers including HSTS, Content Security Policy, and X-Frame-Options. Since we collect minimal data, the risk surface is inherently small.
8. Your Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction (GDPR, CCPA, etc.), you may have the right to:
- Know what data we hold about you (for newsletter subscribers: your email address)
- Request deletion of your data
- Opt out of tracking (see cookie opt-out section above)
- Unsubscribe from communications
Since we don't collect personal data through analytics, most of these rights are already satisfied by default.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance.
