Privacy & Cookie Notice

Effective 16 July 2026

1. Who we are

This notice describes how Cleaner for Mac ("we") handles information for visitors to cleanerforyourmac.com (the "Site"). We publish educational guides about macOS maintenance and deliberately keep data collection to a minimum.

2. What we collect

There are two sources of information:

  • Details you send us. When you email us or complete the contact form, we receive your name, email address, and the content of your message.
  • Details gathered automatically. As with most websites, our hosting and analytics tools may log technical data such as browser and device type, general region, the page that referred you, and which pages you open. This supports security and helps us see which guides help readers.

3. Why we collect it

We rely on this information to reply to you, to run and protect the Site, to understand and improve our guides, to present and measure advertising where it appears, and to meet legal obligations. We never sell your personal information.

4. Cookies explained

5. Advertising & measurement partners

We may partner with third parties, including Google, to display ads and measure traffic. Such partners may set cookies or similar technologies to serve ads based on your earlier visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies lets it and its partners serve ads to you based on your visits here and elsewhere online.

To limit personalized advertising, visit Google's Ads Settings. For broader, industry-wide choices, see aboutads.info and Your Online Choices.

7. Your legal rights

Depending on where you live, laws such as the EU/UK GDPR or the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) may give you rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict use of your personal information, and to object to certain processing. To exercise them, email [email protected] and we'll respond within the period the law allows.

8. How long we keep it

We retain messages only as long as needed to answer you and keep sensible records, and we hold automatically collected data for a limited period consistent with security and measurement needs.

9. Younger visitors

The Site is meant for a general, adult audience and is not directed at children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age where you live). We do not knowingly collect information from children.

10. Updates to this notice

We may revise this notice as our practices or the law change. The "Effective" date above reflects the latest version, and notable changes may be highlighted on the Site.
