Privacy Policy

Summary in Plain English

We do not require an account, an email address, or any personal identifier to use the site.

We use third-party advertising network Adsterra to display ads to fund our free resource site, and we use Google Analytics to count visits, measure page performance, and understand which features are used. These tools may set cookies or use local storage.

Information We Collect

Analytics events: anonymous events such as "page viewed" and "feature used", along with technical fields like browser type, referrer path, country (at the country level), screen size, and approximate session duration. We do not collect your IP address in a form that lets us identify you.

Diagnostic logs: in rare cases, our hosting platform may store short-lived edge logs (such as request URLs and HTTP status codes) for security and abuse prevention. These logs are retained for no more than 30 days.

How We Use This Information

To keep the site fast and stable on the browsers and devices visitors actually use.

To find and fix bugs.

To decide which features or guides to build, deprioritize, or remove.

We do not use the data to profile individuals or build advertising audiences ourselves.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We may use first-party cookies and browser local storage to remember UI preferences so you don't have to reconfigure them on each visit.

The site integrates with Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity. These platforms use cookies that we configure with IP anonymization where supported.

You can clear cookies and local storage for this site at any time from your browser settings.

Third-Party Services

Analytics: we may send anonymous event data to the analytics providers listed above.

Hosting and CDN: the site is served through a global CDN. Your browser will make standard network requests to the CDN to download HTML, CSS, JavaScript, fonts, and other static assets.

Advertising: we work with Adsterra and other third-party ad networks to display advertisements on the site. These networks may collect anonymous information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you. Please refer to Adsterra's privacy policy for details on their data practices and opt-out options.

Data Retention

Anonymous analytics events are retained for up to 14 months and then automatically deleted by the analytics provider.

Diagnostic logs are retained for up to 30 days.

Your Rights

Because we do not collect personally identifying information, we have no individual record to look up, export, or delete on request. You can fully reset your relationship with the site at any time by clearing cookies and local storage for this domain.

If you believe we hold any data about you that we should not, please contact us using the address below and we will investigate.

Children's Privacy

This site is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any data from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe a child has provided data through this site, please contact us and we will delete any relevant records.

International Users

The site is served globally through a CDN, and analytics events may be processed on servers located outside your country of residence. By using the site, you understand that the limited, anonymous data described above may be processed in those locations.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as the site evolves — for example, when we change analytics providers or introduce new advertising. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We recommend reviewing the policy periodically.
