Privacy Policy
At Coupon Finder, protecting your privacy is a top priority. As a service dedicated to sending SMS notifications about publicly available brand promotions, discounts, and coupons, we handle your information with care and transparency.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, share, and protect your personal data when you use our website (coupon-finders.com) or sign up for alerts.
