At Auto Diagly, we respect your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data. We keep things simple: we don’t sell your data, we don’t track you across other websites for advertising, and we don’t use complex marketing tools.
1. Information We Collect
We do not collect personal information like your name, email address, or phone number unless you voluntarily contact us via email.
When you visit our site, we automatically collect limited technical data through Google Analytics 4 (GA4). This includes:
- Your IP address (anonymized by Google).
- Browser type and version.
- Device type (mobile, desktop, tablet).
- Approximate location (country/city level, derived from IP).
- Pages you visit and time spent on them.
- Referral source (how you found us).
This data is used solely to understand how people use our site and to improve our content. It cannot be used to personally identify you.
2. How We Use Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 to analyze website traffic and performance. Key points about our setup:
- IP Anonymization: We have enabled IP anonymization. Your full IP address is never stored or seen by us; Google truncates it before processing.
- No Advertising Features: We do not use Google Analytics for remarketing, advertising reporting features, or demographic profiling.
- Data Sharing: We do not share this analytics data with any third parties other than Google (as the processor).
For more details on how Google handles data, you can review Google’s Privacy Policy.
3. Cookies
Our site uses minimal cookies strictly necessary for Google Analytics to function. These cookies:
- Do not store personal information.
- Are used only to distinguish unique visitors and track session duration.
- Expire automatically after a set period (typically 2 years for the main GA4 cookie).
You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time. Note that disabling cookies may limit the functionality of some website features, though our core content will remain accessible.
4. Third-Party Links
Our articles may contain links to external websites (e.g., OEM manuals, parts suppliers, tool manufacturers). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these third-party sites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies when you leave our site.
5. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect our website and the data we process. However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We do not store any sensitive personal data on our servers.
6. Your Rights
Depending on your location (e.g., EU, California), you may have the right to:
- Request access to the data we hold about you.
- Request correction or deletion of your data.
- Opt-out of analytics tracking (via your browser settings or opt-out plugins).
To exercise these rights or ask any questions about privacy, please contact us at: [email protected].
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy occasionally to reflect changes in our practices or legal requirements. The “Last Updated” date at the top will reflect any changes. We encourage you to check this page periodically.
If you have any concerns about how we handle your data, please reach out. We are committed to transparency and trust.
