Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how IdleMMO Tools ("we", "us", the "Site", available at idlemmotools.com) handles information when you visit. We keep things simple: the Site has no user accounts and we do not ask you for personal information. The data described below is collected automatically through standard web analytics and advertising, and is used to keep the Site running and to support it with ads.

1. Information we collect

We do not require you to register or submit any personal information to use the Site. We do not knowingly collect names, addresses, or payment details.

• Log & device data. Like most websites and our hosting/CDN provider (Cloudflare), our servers automatically receive standard request data such as your IP address, browser type, referring page, and the time of your request. This is used for security, abuse prevention, and to keep the Site reliable.
• Usage analytics. We use Google Analytics to understand, in aggregate, which pages are popular and how the Site performs. See "Cookies and analytics" below.
• Advertising data. Our advertising partners may collect data through cookies and similar technologies to serve and measure ads. See "Advertising" below.

2. Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We and our partners use cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage) for analytics, to remember your cookie choice, and — once enabled — to deliver advertising. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings, and you can refuse non-essential cookies through the consent banner shown on your first visit. Blocking some cookies may affect how parts of the Site work.

3. Analytics (Google Analytics 4)

We use Google Analytics 4 to measure traffic and usage. We run it with Google Consent Mode: until you accept cookies, analytics storage is set to "denied" and only privacy-preserving, cookieless signals may be sent. Information generated is used in aggregate and is not used by us to identify individual visitors. Learn more at Google's Privacy Policy and How Google uses information from sites that use its services.

4. Advertising (Google AdSense and partners)

This Site is supported by advertising. We use Google AdSense and may use other ad networks to display ads. To do this:

• Third party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this Site or other websites.
• Google's use of advertising cookies (including the DoubleClick cookie) enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this Site and/or other sites on the Internet.
• Third-party vendors and ad networks may also use cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies to collect information about your visits in order to provide measurement services and to serve relevant ads.

We do not control the cookies set by these third parties. For details on how Google uses data when you use our partners' sites or apps, see policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

5. Your choices

• Consent banner. Use the banner on your first visit (or clear your browser storage to see it again) to accept or decline non-essential cookies.
• Personalised ads. You may opt out of personalised advertising by Google at Google Ads Settings.
• Third-party opt-outs. You can opt out of personalised advertising from many vendors at aboutads.info/choices (US) or youronlinechoices.eu (EU/UK).
• Browser controls. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings at any time.

6. Visitors from the EEA, UK, and Switzerland

If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, personalised advertising and analytics cookies are only used after you provide consent through our consent banner, consistent with applicable data-protection laws. You may withdraw consent at any time by declining cookies or clearing your browser storage.

7. Children's privacy

The Site is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will address it.

8. Data retention & third-party links

We retain aggregate analytics and standard server logs only as long as needed for the purposes above. The Site links to third-party websites (such as the official game and the services named here); their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this one.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date above. Continued use of the Site after a change means you accept the revised policy.
