No account, no profile
Scout works without signing in. Your saved items, comparisons and recently-viewed products are stored only in your own browser (local storage) — they never reach our servers, and clearing your browser data removes them.
Searches
When you search, your query is sent to our search and AI providers (Google Shopping via Serper, and DeepSeek) so we can return and explain results. Please don't put personal information in searches. Queries may be cached briefly to keep the service fast and cheap.
Analytics
We use privacy-friendly, cookie-free analytics to count visits and see which features are used. It does not build a profile of you or track you across other sites.
Links to stores
When you click through to a retailer, you leave Scout and that store (and any affiliate network) may set its own cookies under its own privacy policy. We may earn a commission on some links, at no extra cost to you.
