Cookies and Tracking Technologies We use cookies and similar technologies to:

Analytics We may use privacy-conscious analytics services to understand site usage in aggregate. IP addresses may be truncated or anonymized where supported. We do not use analytics to identify individual users.
Advertising and Affiliate Disclosure Neighbor Fire Lab participates in affiliate programs. When you click a retailer link and make a purchase, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Affiliate relationships do not influence our testing protocols or recommendations. We label affiliate links where required and maintain an editorial firewall between testing and monetization.

- Retailers/affiliate platforms for attribution when you follow an outbound link
- Authorities if required by law or to protect our rights and users
