Effective Date: September 1, 2024
Thank you for using Storelink! We hope you will take some time to read this Policy carefully.
Privacy and security are very important to us at Storelink. This End User Privacy Policy (“Policy”) is meant to help you (the “end user”) understand how we at Storelink collect, use, and share your data when you use Storelink products or services. For example, you may use Storelink to connect and share your data to power the applications (“apps”) you use. These apps, which offer many consumer services and products such as helping you manage your spending, identify eligible expenses, or keep track of items you buy, are built and provided by our business customers (“developers”), and powered by Cooklist Inc. DBA Storelink (“Storelink,” “we,” “our,” and “us”).
First, Some Background
Our mission at Storelink is to unlock personal data as an asset for everyone. By delivering access to high-quality, usable retail account data that we’ve translated and standardized, we enable developers of retail apps and services to focus on building experiences that benefit you.
About this Policy
Our goal with this Policy is to provide a simple and straightforward explanation of what data Storelink collects from and about you and how we use and share that information. We value transparency and want to provide you with a clear and concise description of how we treat your data.
This Policy does not cover what developers of the apps you use do with your data. You should review the privacy policies or terms of service for those apps for information about their practices. This Policy also does not cover data we collect through our websites or when you interact with Storelink outside of using our product or services, such as emailing Storelink directly. Please see our Privacy Policy for more information.
Storelink’s services are not directed to individuals under 18 and we do not knowingly collect data relating to children.
Our Data Practices
Storelink is committed to providing end users with meaningful control over their data. This section describes Storelink’s data practices relating to our processing of data about you.
Data We Collect and Categories of Sources
As explained in greater detail below, the data we collect, use, and share depends on the Storelink products and services that you, and or the app you have connected to, use. Depending on which of Storelink’s products or services you or the developer you are connecting to use, Storelink may collect the following:
Data you provide to us. When you use Storelink’s products or services (e.g. when you use Storelink to connect your retail accounts to an app) we may collect the following data from you as needed to power your particular app or service:
When you provide login data and additional information needed to connect your accounts, you also give Storelink permission and authority to act on your behalf to access and transmit data to and from your retail institution.
Data we collect from retail institutions about and from your accounts. Depending on which Storelink products or services you, or the developer of your app use, as well as what, and how information is made available, we may collect the following data from your retail institutions:
Data we receive from your devices. When you use a device, like your smartphone, tablet, or computer, to interact with our services (including through a developer’s app), we may collect the following data about that device:
Data we receive about you from other sources. When needed to provide a service, identify your device, or to help prevent fraud, abuse, or security threats, we may also receive data about you directly from third parties, including your wireless carrier, agents and our service providers.
Information we derive from the data we collect. We may derive additional information about you from the data we collect. For example, we may infer your geolocation, your annual income, or the type of account you’ve chosen to connect.
How We Use Your Data
We use your data for the following business and commercial purposes:
We collect, use, and share data that has been aggregated or anonymized in a manner that does not identify you personally for any purpose permitted under applicable law. This includes creating or using aggregated or anonymized data to develop new services, or to facilitate research, and for analytics purposes to help assess the speed, accuracy, and/or security of our services.
How We Share Your Data
We share your data for the following reasons:
In an ongoing effort to better understand our users, the apps, and our products and services, we may analyze certain data in an anonymized and aggregate form. This aggregate data does not identify you personally. We may share, sell, and/or license this aggregate data to our affiliates, agents, business and promotional partners, and other third parties. We may also disclose aggregated user statistics to describe the apps and these products and services to current and prospective business partners and investors and to other third parties for other lawful purposes.
We may collect and share cookie data with third parties when you visit our website, or we may allow third parties to collect this cookie data from our sites. Please see our Cookie Policy and Privacy Policy for more details.
Our Retention and Deletion Practices
We retain your data only as long as it is needed. To determine whether the data is needed, we consider the reason your data was collected and used and any legal requirements to hold onto your data. We review your data periodically to ensure it is still needed to fulfill the purpose for which it was collected or any other legal requirements. If a developer removes your connection from their app to your data.
The exceptions to this may be if: (a) you’ve established a connection with another developer’s app through Storelink that is still active; (b) Storelink needs your data to continue providing you with a Storelink service you requested; (c) Storelink is required by law to keep your data; (d) Storelink needs your data to help prevent fraud or protect privacy, provide support, or investigate misuse and misconduct; (e) where Storelink has anonymized your data such that it can not reidentified or (f) we request - and you specifically agree - to allow us to retain your data longer.
Your data will only be processed as required by law or in accordance with this Policy.
Please refer to the “Your Data Protection Rights” section of this Policy for options that may be available to you, including how to request deletion of your data. You can also contact us about our data retention practices using the contact information in the “Contacting Storelink” section below.

We will consider requests and provide our response within a reasonable period of time (and within any time period required by applicable law). Please note, however, that certain data may be exempt from such requests, for example if we need to keep the data to comply with our own legal obligations or to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
