Privacy Policy
Effective July 23, 2026 (added the Chewy supplies-links paragraph; first published July 17, 2026).
Reef Price Index is a free, read-only price comparison site. This page explains, in plain language, what happens with data when you visit. The short version: we don't know who you are, and we don't try to find out.
What we don't collect
- There are no user accounts, sign-ups, or logins.
- There are no comment sections, forms, or file uploads.
- The site itself sets no cookies.
- We do not buy, sell, or share personal data with anyone.
Analytics
We use Cloudflare Web Analytics to see aggregate traffic — things like how many people visited, which pages they viewed, and what country and browser type visits came from. It is cookieless: it does not set cookies, does not build individual visitor profiles, and does not track you across other websites. The measurement script is added by Cloudflare when the page is served (it is not part of our site's source code). Cloudflare's own privacy practices are described in the Cloudflare privacy policy.
Hosting and infrastructure logs
The site is hosted on Cloudflare's network. Like essentially every host, Cloudflare processes standard technical data — such as IP addresses and request logs — to deliver the pages and protect against abuse. We do not use this data to identify visitors.
If you email us at [email protected], we receive your email address and whatever you write. We use it only to reply to you.
Links to vendors
Price tables link out to vendor product pages. Those links are plain — they carry no tracking or affiliate parameters. Once you leave this site, the vendor's own privacy policy applies, not ours.
Supplies links (Chewy)
Separately, species pages contain clearly disclosed supplies links to Chewy, a pet retailer that sells no live coral or marine fish and is not one of the vendors this index tracks. These route through Impact, Chewy's affiliate network, which records the click and may set cookies on the pages you land on so a purchase can be credited to this site. That happens after you leave — this site itself still sets no cookies and sends nothing about you to Chewy or Impact. Their practices are governed by Chewy's privacy policy and Impact's privacy policy. See also how we make money.
Advertising
The site currently shows no ads — see how we make money. If we ever introduce advertising or anything else that changes what data is collected, we will update this policy before it goes live and change the effective date at the top of this page.
