3. Third-Party Services and Disclosure of Information

We do not sell your personal information. We work with trusted third-party services that may receive certain data to operate the Site. Each third party handles data under its own privacy policy.

3.1 Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics (Property ID: G-QKM2PW8KZ2) to collect aggregated, anonymized traffic and behavior data. Google Analytics uses cookies and may transfer data to Google servers in the United States. You can opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On. Google's privacy policy is available at policies.google.com/privacy.

3.2 Brevo (Email Marketing)

We use Brevo (formerly Sendinblue) to manage our email subscriber list and send communications. When you subscribe, your email address and any provided name are stored with Brevo. Brevo's privacy policy is available at brevo.com/legal/privacypolicy. You may unsubscribe from any email we send at any time.

3.3 Affiliate Networks and Partners

HustlEdge maintains affiliate relationships with companies whose products and services relate to side hustles, passive income, e-commerce, and online earning (for example, e-commerce platforms, freelance marketplaces, financial tools, and creator software). When you click an affiliate link on HustlEdge.com, a cookie or parameter from that partner or its affiliate network may be set to track whether you complete a qualifying action (such as a signup or purchase). Each partner operates under its own privacy policy. HustlEdge does not control the data practices of these third parties. See our Affiliate Disclosure for details.

3.4 ThirstyAffiliates Link Management

We use ThirstyAffiliates to manage and cloak affiliate links on this Site. Links that begin with /recommends/ are redirect links managed by this plugin. Clicking such a link may be logged (click count and referrer) for our internal analytics. You are then redirected to the third-party partner's website.

3.5 WordPress Infrastructure

This Site runs on WordPress. Hosting infrastructure, plugins, and related services may log server-level data (IP addresses, request timestamps, error logs) for operational purposes.

3.6 Legal Disclosures

We may disclose your information if required to do so by law, court order, or government authority, or if we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, or investigate fraud.

4. Affiliate Link Disclosure

HustlEdge.com contains affiliate links. When you click an affiliate link and complete a qualifying action on the partner's site, we may earn a commission. This does not increase your cost as a consumer. Affiliate links are managed through ThirstyAffiliates and typically appear as hustledge.com/recommends/[partner-name]. See our full Affiliate Disclosure for details.
