Cookies
Our aim and why cookies are important
Club Connector was established to bring 'super savings to savvy shoppers'. We usually, but not always, earn a small commission when you redeem one of our voucher on a merchant website. Our aim is to bring you the best offers from the biggest range of merchants in the UAE even though not all offers or vouchers reward us with a commission. In order to get paid our commission a cookie is used to track that the purchase you make on the merchant website has originated at Club Connector.
Club Connector uses many different affiliate networks who sit in between us and the merchant website. These networks use cookies to track the sales we refer to the merchant websites and are anonymous meaning that we cannot identify you personally.
What are cookies?
A cookie is a small piece of data stored by a website within a browser (usually Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari or Chrome) and then subsequently sent back to the same website by the browser. Cookies are a reliable mechanism for websites to remember things that a browser has done there in the past, which can include having clicked particular buttons or visiting specific pages.
Our cookies anonymously track how you use our website so we can continuously improve it, enable some website functionality and provide us with the mechanism to get paid a small commission when you redeem some of our voucher codes and offers. You can find out more about cookies at AboutCookies.org.
