Privacy Policy

Information we collect

We collect information you provide directly — such as your name and email when you create an account or submit a tool — and information collected automatically, including usage data, device/browser details, and approximate location (country) via analytics.

How we use it

To operate and improve the directory, process tool submissions, communicate with you, measure traffic, and keep the service secure.

Analytics & cookies

We use analytics (e.g. Google Analytics) and cookies to understand how the site is used. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

Marketing tags (Meta Pixel and Google Ads)

If you accept cookies, we may also load the Meta Pixel and Google Ads tag. They tell Meta and Google that you visited our site and which actions you took (for example, starting a checkout), so we can measure our own ads on Facebook, Instagram and Google and show them to past visitors. You can change this in Meta Ad Preferences and Google Ads Settings, or by declining cookies on this site.

Sponsored ads

Ads marked “Sponsored” are bought directly by advertisers through our Advertise page and reviewed by us before they appear. We count how many times each ad is shown and clicked, without identifying you, and share only those totals with the advertiser.

Advertising (Google AdSense)

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on this website. Google and its partners use cookies (including the DoubleClick / advertising cookie) to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.

You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised ads at aboutads.info/choices. For more information on how Google uses data, see How Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Third-party services

We rely on trusted providers for authentication, hosting, payments, and image storage. These providers process data on our behalf under their own privacy terms.

Your rights

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data by contacting us.
