Privacy Policy

This policy explains what ToolNest collects when you read the site, why, and what you can do about it. We have tried to write it in plain English rather than legal filler.

What we collect

• Analytics data. Pages viewed, approximate location (country/region), device and browser type, referring site, and any campaign parameters in the URL. This would be processed by Google Analytics; it is not currently enabled on the site, and this policy will be updated before it is.
• Email you send us. Kept only as long as needed to deal with your message.

We do not ask for, and do not want, sensitive personal data. We do not sell personal data.

Cookies and similar technology

We use cookies and browser storage for two purposes: measuring how the site is used, and — where advertising is enabled — serving ads. Session attribution (which campaign or referrer brought you here) is stored in your browser’s session storage and is cleared when you close the tab.

Advertising and Google AdSense

ToolNest displays advertising served by Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies 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 visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
• You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ad Settings.
• You can opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info and youronlinechoices.eu.
• Third-party vendors used on this site are listed in Google’s advertising partners directory.

Consent in the EEA, UK and Switzerland

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, a consent message is shown before advertising or analytics cookies are set. It is served through Google’s certified consent management platform, and your choice is stored in your browser so you are not asked on every page. You can change or withdraw that choice at any time by clearing this site’s cookies, which makes the message appear again on your next visit.

Where you decline consent, Google may still serve non-personalised ads, which use cookies for frequency capping, aggregated reporting and fraud prevention rather than for building a profile of you.

Legal basis and retention

Where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, we rely on your consent for analytics and advertising cookies, collected through the consent message described above, and on legitimate interest for keeping the site secure and working. Analytics data is retained for 14 months. Email you send us is kept only as long as needed to deal with it. Google retains advertising data under its own privacy policy, which governs its processing as an independent controller.

Your rights

You can ask us for a copy of your data, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete it. Email palakpatel00132@gmail.com with “Privacy request” in the subject line and we will respond within 30 days.

Children

ToolNest is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect data from them.

Changes

If we change this policy we will update the date at the top of this page. Related reading: Terms of Use and Disclaimer.
