Your privacy

Privacy Policy

We keep this simple, because your privacy should not require a law degree to understand. This page explains what we collect, why, and what we do not do.

The short version

We do not sell your data. We do not collect more than we need. We use basic analytics to see which pages help people, and we use affiliate links to keep the site free. That is the whole story, but here are the details.

Analytics

We use privacy-respecting analytics to understand how the site is used, things like which pages get visited, roughly where visitors come from, and what kind of device they use. This is aggregate information that helps us write better guides. We do not use it to identify you personally.

Cookies

A cookie is a small file a website can store in your browser. We may use a few for analytics and to remember basic preferences. You can block or delete cookies anytime in your browser settings, and the site will still work. Some third parties we link to, such as Amazon, may set their own cookies once you visit them, which is governed by their privacy policies, not ours.

Affiliate links

Some links on this site are affiliate links. When you click them and make a purchase, the destination site (for example, Amazon) may record that the visit came from us so we can be credited the commission. This does not cost you anything and does not share personal details with us beyond the fact that a sale happened. See our affiliate disclosure for more.

What we don't do

  • We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information.
  • We do not build advertising profiles about you.
  • We do not collect sensitive personal data through the site.

Email

If you contact us or sign up for a download, we use your email only to reply to you or send what you asked for. You can ask us to delete your email at any time.

Changes to this policy

If we update how we handle data, we will update this page. Since privacy practices can evolve as the site grows, it is worth a quick re-read now and then.
