Cookie policy

2.The cookies we set

None. The site is a set of pre-generated pages served as-is; it opens no session and has nothing to remember about you from one visit to the next.

In particular, and unlike most comparison sites:

• No analytics: not Google Analytics, not an equivalent, including the ones marketed as privacy-friendly.
• No tag manager, no advertising pixel, no ad network.
• No social network button or widget, which would set their own trackers the moment the page renders.

That is also why there is no "manage my preferences" button: there are no preferences to set.

3.The local storage the form uses

One single value is written to your browser, and only if you send the contact form: the sending tool records the timestamp of your last message, to stop a script posting hundreds of them in a row.

It is not a cookie and it is not used to follow you: the value never leaves your device, contains no identifier, and disappears if you clear the site's data in your browser. On that basis it counts as a strictly necessary tracker and needs no consent.

4.Domains your browser contacts

Rendering a page means downloading resources, and some are hosted elsewhere. Those servers then see your IP address, as does any server your browser talks to. Here is the complete list:

esimrat.com, public.esimrat.com

Our host: it serves the pages, the images and the site's local fonts. privacy policy

fonts.googleapis.com

Supplies a fallback typeface for non-Apple devices. privacy policy

api.emailjs.com

Carries your message through to our mailbox (only when the form is submitted). privacy policy

i.pravatar.cc

Supplies the author portraits shown on blog articles.

picsum.photos

Supplies illustration images in some blog articles.

None of these calls sets a cookie on our behalf, and none of them reports anything about you back to us.

5.Affiliate links and providers' cookies

When you click a link to a provider, the address carries an attribution parameter saying the visit came from eSIMrat. That is what earns us a commission if you buy, at no extra cost to you.

The parameter is visible in the address bar and stores nothing on our side. The provider, however, very likely sets its own cookies on its site to tie the purchase to our link. At that point you are on their domain, under their policy and their consent banner.

Refusing those cookies at the provider does not stop you buying: it simply costs us the attribution of the commission.

6.Setting up your browser

Even though our site stores nothing, you may want general control over cookies. Every browser allows it in its privacy settings:

• Chrome: Settings → Privacy and security → Third-party cookies.
• Safari: Settings → Safari → Privacy & Security (or Preferences → Privacy on a Mac).
• Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data.
• Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions.

7.What happens if you block everything

The site works in full: the comparison, the listings and the articles depend on no tracker at all.

Two possible side effects, neither serious: an aggressive blocker can stop the form from sending, in which case the page offers you our address directly; and if you block cookies at the provider, your purchase will not be attributed to us.

8.Your rights

Since we set no trackers, there is no consent to withdraw. For any question about how your data is handled, write to [email protected].

9.Changes to this policy

If we ever add a tool that sets trackers, this page will be updated before it goes live and a compliant consent mechanism will be put in place. The last-updated date is at the top of the page.
