We use the following types of cookies:

• Essential cookies — required for the platform to function correctly, including account login and saved toolkit functionality

Affiliate Links & Third Parties

AppSupertools contains links to third-party tool and provider websites. When you click through to a tool via an affiliate link, that provider may set its own cookies and collect information about your visit in accordance with its own privacy policy.

We participate in affiliate programmes with various tool providers. When you make a purchase or sign up through one of our links, we may receive a commission. This does not affect the price you pay.

We may share limited non-personally identifiable information with our affiliate partners for tracking and commission purposes. This information cannot be used to identify you as an individual.

Data Sharing & Disclosure

We do not sell, rent or trade your personal information to third parties. We may share your information in the following limited circumstances:

• Service providers — trusted third-party companies that help us operate AppSupertools, such as our hosting provider (Shopify), email service providers and analytics platforms. These companies are contractually obligated to keep your information confidential and use it only to provide services to us
• Legal requirements — if required by law, court order or governmental authority, or to protect the rights, property or safety of AppSupertools, our users or the public
• Business transfers — in the event of a merger, acquisition or sale of all or part of AppSupertools, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you before your information becomes subject to a different privacy policy
• With your consent — in any other circumstances where we have obtained your explicit consent to share information

Data Security

We take the security of your personal information seriously and implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect it against unauthorised access, disclosure, alteration or destruction.

• All data transmitted between your browser and AppSupertools is encrypted using SSL/TLS technology
• Access to personal data is restricted to authorised personnel only

While we take every reasonable precaution to protect your information, no method of internet transmission or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of your data. In the event of a data breach that affects your rights, we will notify you as required by applicable law.

Children's Privacy

AppSupertools is not directed at children under the age of 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. This is in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information without your consent, please contact us immediately at hello@appsupertools.com and we will take steps to delete that information from our systems.

Users between the ages of 13 and 16 may use AppSupertools only with verifiable parental or guardian consent in accordance with applicable state laws.

Do Not Track

Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that signals to websites that you do not want your online activities tracked. At this time there is no universally accepted standard for how websites should respond to Do Not Track signals.

We currently do not alter our data collection practices in response to Do Not Track signals. However, you can manage your tracking preferences through your browser's cookie settings and through the opt-out mechanisms provided by analytics partners such as Google Analytics.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements or other reasons. We will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.

For significant changes that materially affect your rights or how we use your personal information, we will provide more prominent notice — such as an email notification to registered users or a notice on the AppSupertools homepage — prior to the changes taking effect.

We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your information. Your continued use of AppSupertools after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
