Privacy Policy
Learn how we respect your privacy
Last updated: March 2026
1. Information We Collect
Personal information you provide. The only personal information you provide through the Service is your email address (for sign-ups, newsletters, or account creation), unless you provide additional details voluntarily.
Usage and device data. We automatically collect certain technical and usage information when you visit the Service, such as IP address, browser type and version, operating system, pages viewed, referring/exit pages, and timestamps.
Cookies and tracking technologies. We use cookies and similar technologies (including Google Analytics and Google Ads tracking) for analytics, functionality, and advertising as described below.
Device fingerprinting. We collect a browser fingerprint — a hash derived from your browser's technical characteristics (such as canvas rendering, audio context, screen properties, and installed fonts) — for the purpose of fraud prevention and abuse detection. This fingerprint is stored as a one-way hash and cannot be used to identify you personally. It is used solely to detect and prevent multi-account abuse of our free tier.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- To provide, maintain, and improve our Service.
- To send you transactional or promotional emails if you have opted in to receive them (you may opt out at any time).
- To analyze how users access and use the Service (analytics).
- To deliver and measure advertising and marketing campaigns via Google Ads.
- To comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms of service.
- Detecting and preventing abuse, fraud, and violations of our Terms of Service (including multi-account abuse and free tier circumvention).
3. Google Analytics & Google Ads
We use Google Analytics to analyze usage of the Service and Google Ads to run and measure advertising campaigns. These services use cookies and similar tracking technologies to collect information about your use of the Service and other websites, which may include IP address, device identifiers, and behavior data. Google may combine information it collects from our site with information from other sites and services. Google’s use of data is governed by Google’s own policies: Google Privacy Policy.
Consent: We will only load analytics/ads scripts that set non-essential cookies if you consent via our cookie consent control. You can manage or withdraw consent at any time using the cookie preferences UI.
Replace the placeholders in the site code with your Google Measurement ID and Ads ID — these scripts only run after consent.
4. Legal Bases for Processing (GDPR)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we process personal data under these legal bases:
- Consent — where you give consent (e.g., to receive marketing emails or to allow non-essential cookies).
- Legitimate interests — for analytics, fraud prevention, and improving the Service, where those interests do not override your rights.
- Legal obligation — where required by law.
- Legitimate interests — processing device fingerprints and anonymized usage patterns for fraud prevention and abuse detection (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). We have assessed that this processing is necessary for our legitimate interest in preventing service abuse, and that this interest is not overridden by your rights, given that: (a) the fingerprint is a one-way hash that cannot identify you, (b) it is used solely for abuse prevention, and (c) it does not affect legitimate single-account users.
5. How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share data with:
- Service providers: third-party vendors who perform services on our behalf (e.g., hosting, email delivery, analytics, advertising).
- Legal requirements: when required by law or to respond to lawful requests by public authorities.
- Business transfers: in connection with, or during negotiations of, any merger, sale, or transfer of assets.
6. Your Rights & Choices
GDPR (EU/UK/EEA)
You may have the right to:
- Request access to and a copy of personal data we hold about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate personal data.
- Request deletion of personal data (subject to legal exceptions).
- Object to or restrict processing of your personal data.
- Request portability of your personal data in a commonly used format.
- Withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent.
CCPA/CPRA (California)
California residents have rights including:
- The right to know categories of personal information collected, sources, purpose for collection, and categories of recipients.
- The right to request deletion of personal information.
- The right to opt-out of the sale or sharing of personal information (we do not sell personal data; however cookie-based advertising may be considered "sharing").
- The right not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights.
To exercise any rights, please contact us directly at the contact information in the Contact Us section.
7. Data Retention
We keep email addresses and related account data only as long as necessary to provide the Service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Usage and analytics data are retained in aggregated or pseudonymized form for analytics purposes; retention periods depend on the provider's settings (e.g., Google Analytics retention controls).
Abuse prevention data. Anonymized device fingerprints and aggregated usage counts used for abuse prevention are retained for up to 12 months after last activity, or until manually reviewed and cleared. This data persists beyond account deletion to prevent repeat abuse but cannot be used to identify individual users.
8. Data Security
We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect the personal information we hold. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure; we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. International Transfers
Your data may be transferred to, stored, and processed in countries other than the one in which you reside (including the United States). When we transfer personal data across borders we take steps to ensure it is protected consistent with this policy and applicable law (e.g., standard contractual clauses where appropriate).
10. Children
Our Service is not directed to children under the age of 13 (16 where applicable). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If we discover we have collected information from a child without parental consent, we will delete that information promptly.
11. Cookies & Tracking — Preference Controls
We use cookies and similar technologies for necessary site functions, analytics (Google Analytics), and marketing (Google Ads). You can accept or decline non-essential cookies via the consent banner. You can also manage cookie settings in your browser at any time.
For Google Analytics opt-out, see: Google Analytics Opt-out.
12. Third-Party Links
The Service may include links to third-party websites and services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those third parties. Review their privacy policies before providing personal data.
13. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices or legal obligations. When we update the policy we will post the new version with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
