Maker of Shoptimate here. As said by others, the business model is simply affiliate links.
The gathering of browser data in the privacy policy is to cover things taken by my Apache logs or click statistics (which I sometimes need to charge stores that pay me per click). But I don't monetize this in any shape or form.
- gnicholas 7y agoThanks for responding! That totally makes sense. I am a bit wary about these sorts of things because even my small-time (under 100k users) Chrome extension has had offers for data collection/infiltration. So when I read a privacy policy that doesn't disclaim browsing history monetization, I figure it's probably because it's happening. Glad to hear that's not the case!
