Privacy Policy

Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how History Prime (“we,” “our,” or “us”) collects, uses, shares, and protects information when you visit www.historyprime.com (the “Site”).

This policy is intended to be transparent and easy to read. It is not legal advice.

1. Information We Collect

  • Usage/Device Data: Pages visited, links clicked, time on page, referring URLs, approximate location (derived from IP), device type, and browser information.
  • Cookies & Similar Technologies: Small files or identifiers used to enable core features, remember preferences, and measure Site performance.
  • Contact Data (if you email us): If you contact us, we may receive your email address, your name (if provided), and the content of your message.
  • Affiliate Link Data: If you click an affiliate link, our partners may record that referral and attribute qualifying purchases.
  • Advertising/Measurement Data: If advertising features are enabled, partners may record events like page views, ad impressions, ad clicks, and related measurement signals.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • Improve and optimize Site content, performance, and readability
  • Understand traffic and user experience
  • Support affiliate partnerships (e.g., Amazon Associates)
  • Measure outreach/advertising performance (only where enabled and where applicable)
  • Maintain Site security and prevent misuse

3. Cookies

We use cookies and similar technologies for essential Site functions and, depending on your choices, for analytics and marketing/advertising measurement.

  • Essential: Needed for core Site functionality.
  • Analytics: Help us understand engagement and improve usability.
  • Marketing/Advertising Measurement: Help measure campaigns and ad performance; may be used for ad selection depending on region/settings and your choices.
  • Affiliate Tracking: Helps partners attribute referred purchases.

You can accept or decline cookies through our cookie banner (where shown), update your preferences anytime via Cookie settings , or use your browser settings.

Note: Some browsers support “Do Not Track” signals; the Site may not respond to these signals.

If you are located in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, we generally rely on:

  • Consent for non-essential cookies (e.g., analytics and marketing/advertising measurement).
  • Legitimate interests for essential Site operation, security, and preventing abuse.

You may withdraw consent at any time by updating your cookie choices (where available) or adjusting your browser settings.

5. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand Site usage and improve performance. Google may process information such as your IP address (or a derived/shortened form depending on configuration), browser, device, and on-site activity.

You can opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on  (opens in a new tab) .

6. Microsoft Clarity

We use Microsoft Clarity to better understand how visitors interact with the Site through tools such as session replays and heatmaps. This may include clicks, scrolling, mouse movements, and device details.

We aim to avoid collecting sensitive information through these tools. Please do not enter sensitive personal data into free-text fields on the Site.

7. Meta Pixel

We may use Meta Pixel (Facebook/Instagram) to measure how visitors discover and engage with our content from Meta services and to understand content performance. Meta may associate events with your Meta account under its own policies.

You can manage how Meta uses data via your Meta ad settings, including controls related to activity off Meta technologies.

8. Google AdSense

We may use Google AdSense to serve advertisements and measure their performance. Google may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver ads, measure effectiveness, limit frequency, and (depending on region/settings/choices) personalize ads.

Where required, we seek consent before loading non-essential advertising/measurement technologies. Depending on your region and settings, ads may be personalized or non-personalized (contextual).

EEA/UK/Switzerland note: If we serve personalized ads in these regions, additional consent and consent-management requirements may apply.

9. Affiliate Disclosure (Amazon Associates & Other Programs)

History Prime participates in affiliate programs such as the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program. When you click affiliate links and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission—at no extra cost to you.
