Privacy Policy

1. Information we collect

Minimal by design: SoftwareTips4U does not collect personally identifiable information unless you explicitly share it. Automatically collected technical data helps keep the site fast and reliable.

  • Browser, device type, and general location (city/country level).
  • Pages visited, referring sites, and time spent per page.
  • IP addresses may be anonymized depending on analytics configuration.
2. Data you share

Direct contact only: If you contact us (e.g., email), we receive only what you provide: name, email address, and message details. That information is used solely to respond and is not shared or sold.

Tip: Avoid including sensitive personal details in messages. Keep questions focused on learning or site feedback.

3. Cookies & similar tech

Your preferences: Cookies help remember layout preferences, measure engagement, and enable ads. You can clear or block cookies in your browser; some site features may rely on them for a smoother experience.

  • Preference cookies: layout and recently viewed content.
  • Analytics cookies: aggregated usage to improve navigation.
  • Advertising cookies: personalize or limit ad frequency via AdSense.
4. Google Analytics

Usage insights: Google Analytics tracks anonymous visit patterns to understand which tutorials and roadmaps help you most. Data is processed under Google’s privacy policy.

  • Metrics: pages visited, time on page, device, and browser type.
  • Purpose: content optimization and faster navigation.
  • Review Google’s privacy policy.
5. Google AdSense

Monetization: AdSense displays ads that keep the site sustainable. Depending on your region, a consent banner allows you to choose personalized or non-personalized ads.

  • Ad cookies may limit repeat impressions and measure effectiveness.
  • Ads may use past visits to show relevant topics.
  • Learn how Google uses ads data.
6. Third-party links

External sites: Guides often link to documentation, tools, or videos. These external sites have their own privacy practices; review them before sharing information.

Good to know: Links open in new tabs so you can return to your learning flow without losing your place.

7. Data protection & security

Safety first: Reasonable technical and organizational measures help safeguard stored information. No internet transmission is fully secure, so please avoid sharing sensitive data.

  • Access is limited to maintainers supporting the site.
  • No selling, trading, or renting of personal information.
  • Backups focus on availability, not profiling.
8. Children’s privacy

Audience focus: SoftwareTips4U is built for adult learners and professionals. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13; contact us if you believe data was shared.

9. Keeping this page current

Transparent updates: As tools, regulations, or site features change, this page will be updated with a new “Last updated” date. Key changes focus on how analytics, cookies, or ads are used.
