1. Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information:

• Grocery list content — text or images you submit to get price comparisons. This is processed to identify pantry staples and find prices. We do not store your grocery lists permanently.
• Usage data — general information about how you use the app (pages visited, searches performed). This is used to improve the product.
• Cookies — we use cookies to remember your preferences and improve your experience.

2. How We Use Your Information

3. Affiliate Links & Third-Party Services

SlashCart participates in affiliate programs with Amazon and Walmart. When you click "Buy" links on our site, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. These third-party sites have their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to review:
