Last updated 2026-05-25
Information we may collect
SHTF Loadouts may collect basic usage data such as pages visited, referrers, approximate device/browser information, and product-link clicks. If you join a newsletter or contact us, we may collect the information you submit, such as your email address and message.
We do not need sensitive personal information to provide public gear guides. Do not send private emergency, medical, financial, or security information through ordinary contact forms.
How data may be used
Usage data helps us understand which guides are useful, find broken pages, improve internal links, and measure whether affiliate or advertising placements are working.
Email addresses are used for the newsletter or replies you requested. We do not sell email lists as a standalone product.
Third-party services
The site may use analytics, hosting, advertising, affiliate networks, email providers, and retailer links. Those services may set cookies or receive click/referrer data under their own policies.
You can limit cookies through your browser settings. Some tracking or ad features may not work if cookies or scripts are blocked, but the public content should remain readable.
