Metal Toy Cars (metaltoycars.com) is a curated storefront for 1:64 scale diecast model cars. This page explains what happens to data when you visit the site, in plain language.
The short version
- We do not sell anything directly. There are no accounts, no carts and no payments on this site — every product link sends you to Amazon.
- We do not ask you for your name, address or payment details, and we never sell personal data.
- We use Google Analytics to understand which pages and links people use, and Google AdSense may show ads on the site.
- Visitors in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland are asked for consent before any advertising or analytics cookies are used.
Information we collect
Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 to see how the site is used: pages viewed, approximate location (country or city level), device and browser type, referring site, and clicks on the “Check Price on Amazon” buttons. This data is collected through cookies and similar technology and is reported to us in aggregate. We do not use it to identify individual visitors, and we do not upload any customer lists to Google.
Advertising
This site participates in Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies or device identifiers to serve ads and measure their performance. You can review and change your Google ad settings at any time at My Ad Center, and read how Google uses data from partner sites at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Affiliate links
Product links on this site are Amazon Associates links. When you follow one, Amazon receives the referral and applies its own privacy notice and cookies. We are told only that a purchase happened and what commission it earned — never who you are or what payment method you used. See our affiliate disclosure for details.
Server logs and security
Like every website, our hosting and content delivery provider records standard technical information — IP address, request time, page requested, user agent — to keep the site online and protect it from abuse. These logs are kept only as long as needed for that purpose.
Cookies and your choices
Cookies on this site fall into three groups: those required for the site to function, those used for analytics, and those used for advertising. If you visit from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, a consent message appears before advertising and analytics cookies are set, and you can change your choice at any time from the link in that message. Wherever you are, you can also block or delete cookies in your browser settings; the site will continue to work.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal data relating to you, to object to or restrict its processing, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined under California law. Because we do not operate accounts or collect contact details, the data we hold about any individual visitor is limited to the analytics and log information described above.
Children
This site is aimed at adult collectors and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Changes to this policy
If we change how the site handles data — for example by adding a new analytics or advertising provider — we will update this page and the date at the top of it.
