Privacy Policy

Last update: July 4, 2022

We at freetools.me respect the privacy of our users and are committed to protecting their personal information. Our privacy policy reflects current global principles and standards on handling personal information.

As part of our Privacy and Cookies Policy, we may obtain personal data about you, such as your name and email address, whenever you complete an online form. For example, if you contact us for any reason, we will collect that data. We may also obtain sensitive personal data if you voluntarily provide it during the completion of an online form. By doing so, you consent to our processing of that information for the purpose of dealing with your request.

We may monitor your usage of this website, including how many times you visit, which pages you view, traffic data, location data, and the originating domain name of your internet service provider. This information helps us build a profile of our users. Some of this data will be aggregated or statistical, meaning that it will not identify you individually. Please refer to the ‘Use of Cookies’ section in our Cookies Policy for more details.

How We May Use Your Personal Data

We will use your data for the purposes described in the data protection notice provided when your data was obtained. These purposes include, but are not limited to:

  • Statistical analysis
  • Fraud prevention and detection
  • Customizing this website and its content to your particular preferences

Sharing Your Data with Third Parties

We will never sell your Personal Data to any third party. We do not trade, share, or transfer your personal data except in the following limited circumstances:

  • We may share your personal data with third-party service providers who assist us with our business activities. These services may include marketing, customer support, data analytics, advertising our offerings, or maintaining and improving our website’s features and functionality.

Keeping Your Data Secure

We are committed to protecting your personal information against unauthorized use or disclosure. We implement various security measures to safeguard your data. We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personally identifiable information—except to trusted third parties who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or servicing you, provided they agree to keep this information confidential.

We may release your information when we believe it is appropriate to comply with the law, regulation, or legal request; enforce our site policies; protect our or others’ rights, property, or safety; or detect, prevent, or address fraud, security, or technical issues. However, non-personally identifiable visitor information may be provided to other parties for marketing or other uses. We may also transfer your information in connection with a merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, dissolution, reorganization, or similar transaction.

If you provide information on behalf of someone else, you confirm that the other person has authorized you to act on their behalf and has agreed that you can:

  • Give consent on their behalf for the processing of their personal data
  • Receive any data protection notices on their behalf
