Privacy Policy
Currently the discount voucher business is booming and many
websites have started to create reliable relationships between affiliate
networks to get the best discount on a plethora of retailer/brands products and
then provide them to the visiting users on their website as a third party
channel. CodenDeal is among those websites, it’s an entity that solely strives
to provide its users with the best deals and discount currently available in
the market. To help them save a ton of their hard earned money as they shop and
to also understand the gist of shopping smartly.
How the Site Stays In Business
Since CodenDeal isn’t directly connected to the
retailers/brands displayed on the website and is instead affiliated to a third
party network. It solely relies on the commission it procures each time a
visitor was to click the link from the brand page available on our website. The
links are provided by third party clients and are an essential part of the
CodenDeal Business model.
The website needs to procure those commissions in order to stay functional and also in order to provide each user with desired deals on the brand of their choice. This business model creates a relationship that’s beneficial for both the website and the user visiting to acquire a discount on their favorite brand. Whether you choose to avail a deal from our website or not, that choice is completely up to you.
