Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Discount Pound collects, uses, stores and protects personal information when you visit discountpound.com, create an account, subscribe to updates, contact us or use our deal and voucher-code services.
This policy applies only to Discount Pound. It does not apply to retailers, affiliate networks, payment providers or other third-party websites you may visit after leaving our website.
Who we are

For privacy questions or requests, contact us at [PRIVACY EMAIL ADDRESS] or use our contact form.
Information we may collect
Depending on how you use Discount Pound, we may collect:
- Account information — such as your name, email address, username and account preferences, if you create an account.
- Contact information — information you provide when you contact us, report an offer, submit feedback or ask a question.
- Newsletter information — your email address and preferences when you choose to receive promotional emails or deal updates.
- Technical information — including IP address, browser type, device information, operating system, pages viewed, referring URLs, session data and security logs.
- Affiliate-link information — where applicable, a click reference or technical identifier used to understand whether a visit to a retailer came through Discount Pound.
We do not collect your retailer checkout details, payment-card information or delivery information when you shop with a retailer through our website. Those details are handled by the retailer or its payment provider.
How we use your information
We may use personal information to:
- operate and maintain the Discount Pound website;
- create and manage user accounts where this feature is available;
- respond to enquiries, feedback and support requests;
- send newsletters or promotional emails where you have agreed to receive them;
- protect our website, users and systems from fraud, misuse or security threats;
- understand how visitors use the website and improve its content and features;
- measure affiliate referrals and maintain our commercial relationships; and
- meet legal, regulatory or record-keeping obligations.
Our legal basis for using personal information
Where UK data-protection law applies, we use personal information only where we have a valid reason to do so. This may include:
- Consent — for example, when you opt in to a newsletter or accept optional cookies.
- Contract — where processing is necessary to provide an account or service you have requested.
- Legitimate interests — such as keeping our website secure, preventing misuse, responding to enquiries, improving our service and measuring affiliate referrals in a privacy-conscious way.
- Legal obligation — where we need to retain or disclose information to meet applicable legal requirements.
Cookies and similar technologies
Discount Pound uses essential cookies and similar technologies needed for core functions such as security, session management and remembering certain preferences. We may also use optional analytics, advertising or affiliate tracking technologies where permitted by law and based on your cookie choices.
You can find more information about the cookies and technologies used on this site in our Cookie Policy.
Affiliate links and external websites
Some links on Discount Pound are affiliate links. When you click an affiliate link, the retailer or affiliate network may receive technical data and a referral identifier to recognise that you arrived from Discount Pound.
Retailers, affiliate networks and other linked services operate under their own privacy policies and terms. We recommend reviewing those policies before providing personal information or completing a purchase on an external site.
Who we may share information with
We may share limited personal information with trusted service providers where necessary to operate Discount Pound, including:
- website hosting, infrastructure and security providers;
- email and newsletter service providers;
- analytics, consent-management and anti-spam providers;
- affiliate networks and retailers when you follow an affiliate link;
- professional advisers, insurers, regulators or authorities where required; and
- another organisation if our business is reorganised, sold or transferred.
We do not sell personal information to third parties. We only share it where it is necessary for the purposes described in this policy, required by law or permitted by your choices.
International transfers
Some of our service providers may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where this happens, we take appropriate steps to ensure that your information receives a level of protection required by applicable data-protection law, such as using approved contractual safeguards where necessary.
How long we keep information
We keep personal information only for as long as it is reasonably needed for the purpose for which it was collected, including legal, accounting, security and reporting requirements.
- Account information: kept while your account remains active and deleted or anonymised after closure, unless we must retain limited information for legal or security reasons.
- Contact messages and feedback: normally retained for up to 24 months after the matter is resolved.
- Newsletter data: retained until you unsubscribe. We may keep a minimal record of your opt-out to ensure we respect that choice.
- Technical and security logs: retained only for the period reasonably needed to maintain security, diagnose problems and prevent abuse.
Your privacy rights
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have the right to ask us for access to your personal information, correction of inaccurate data, deletion of data, restriction of processing, data portability or to object to certain processing.
You can withdraw consent at any time where we rely on it. To stop receiving marketing emails, use the unsubscribe link in an email or contact us using the details above.
We may need to verify your identity before completing a request. We will respond within the period required by applicable law. If you are unhappy with how we handle your information, you may also complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk .
Keeping your information secure
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal information from unauthorised access, alteration, loss, misuse or disclosure. Passwords are stored using secure password-hashing methods.
No online service can guarantee absolute security. Please do not send passwords, payment-card details or other sensitive information through our contact form or by email.
Children's privacy
Discount Pound is not intended for children under the age at which they can lawfully provide consent for online services in their country. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in a way that requires parental consent. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so we can investigate and take appropriate action.
