Affiliate Links
Workbench DIY is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites. This means that when you click on links to Amazon products on our site and make a purchase, we may earn a commission.
Amazon, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on our site. These cookies enable Amazon and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visit to Workbench DIY and/or other sites on the Internet. When you click on an Amazon affiliate link, Amazon may collect information about your interaction with their site to track sales and attribute them to us. This tracking is done by Amazon and is subject to their privacy policies.
Data Security
We are committed to protecting the security of your information. We use a variety of standard security technologies and procedures to help protect your information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure, so we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Third-Party Services
We may use third-party services that collect, monitor, and analyze this type of information to increase our Service's functionality. These third-party service providers have their own privacy policies addressing how they use such information. For example:
- Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to help us understand how our visitors use the site. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit this site, what pages they visit when they do so, and what other sites they used prior to coming to this site. Google’s ability to use and share information collected by Google Analytics about your visits to this site is restricted by the Google Analytics Terms of Use and the Google Privacy Policy.
- Amazon Associates: As mentioned above, Amazon uses cookies and tracking technologies when you interact with their products via our affiliate links.
Your Choices
You have several choices regarding the collection and use of your information:
- Cookies: Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove or reject browser cookies. Please be aware that if you choose to remove or reject cookies, this could affect the availability and functionality of our services.
- Google Analytics Opt-out: You can opt-out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, which prevents Google Analytics from collecting information about your visits to websites.
- Unsubscribe/Deletion: As we do not collect personal identifying information (unless, for example, a comment feature were added later), the ability to unsubscribe from newsletters or request deletion of data would apply if such features were implemented and you provided your data to them. We do not currently operate email lists or direct marketing requiring an unsubscribe option.
We do not sell your data, so there is no opt-out for data selling.

If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us so that we can take the necessary actions.
