What we collect

THCA Verdict collects only what it needs to run the site: anonymous analytics about which pages are read, the email address you give us if you subscribe to the newsletter or send a message, and the details required to fulfill a shop order. We do not sell personal data.

Analytics

We use privacy-respecting analytics to understand aggregate traffic — which guides are useful, where readers arrive from. These measure patterns, not identities.

Affiliate links & cookies

When you click a vendor link, a small attribution cookie may record that the referral came from us so we are credited for any resulting purchase, at no cost to you. Vendors set their own cookies under their own policies once you land on their sites. See our editorial standards for how affiliate revenue does and does not affect our verdicts.

Newsletter & messages

If you subscribe, we store your email to send the newsletter and nothing else; unsubscribe any time from the footer of any issue. Messages you send through the contact form are used only to reply to you.

Age confirmation

The 21+ confirmation stores a single cookie on your device so we do not ask on every visit. It contains no personal information and expires after 30 days.
