Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

ToolPick respects your privacy and is committed to protecting personal data. This policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you visit toolpick.dev.

2. Information We Collect

• Usage data: pages visited, referring URLs, device type, browser type, and coarse interaction data.
• Browser storage and similar technologies: essential local storage keeps your consent, calculator saves, and theme choice. Optional analytics storage is used only after you accept analytics.
• Contact information: information you voluntarily submit through email, newsletter forms, or product submission forms.

3. How We Use Information

• To operate, secure, and improve the website.
• To analyze content performance and improve editorial quality.
• To respond to corrections, product submissions, and inquiries.
• To verify and, after approval, display advertising.
• To comply with legal obligations.

4. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

• Google Analytics: for traffic analysis and product improvement after analytics consent. Google may process data according to its Privacy Policy.
• Google AdSense: for site verification and, after approval and an operational-readiness review, advertising. Ad-serving code is disabled while that hold is active. If enabled, ads require a configured consent platform and separate marketing consent before Google can use cookies or similar identifiers to serve and measure ads.
• PostHog: for product analytics and site interaction measurement after analytics consent. Session recording is disabled.
• Vercel: for website hosting, delivery, and operational logs.

5. Cookies

Google Analytics and PostHog are blocked until you explicitly accept analytics. Declining optional cookies does not disable calculator saves, shared calculator URLs, or theme settings. You can revisit your choice below; declining clears ToolPick's accessible optional analytics storage while retaining essential product data. The built-in analytics choice never grants advertising storage; a configured consent platform must request marketing consent separately before any future ad serving.

Review analytics choices

You can manage Google ad personalization through Google's Ads Settings. You can also learn how Google uses data from partner sites at Google partner sites.

6. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing of your personal data. To exercise these rights, please contact us.

7. Data Retention

We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes in this policy or as required by law. Analytics data is retained according to each provider's configured retention period.
