Privacy Policy

1. Overview & Commitment

At EveryToolz (“EveryToolz”, “we”, “our”), we take user and developer privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy details the types of information we collect when you browse our SaaS and AI tools directory, sign in via Google OAuth or email, submit applications, bookmark tools, or communicate with us.

We adhere to strict principles: we do not sell your personal information to third-party data brokers, we do not perform invasive ad profiling, and we only collect what is strictly necessary to deliver transparent software discovery and authenticated services.

2. Information We Collect

• Account & Profile Data: When registering via email or Google OAuth, we receive your email address, verified name, and Google profile photo. By default, your Google avatar is used to display your profile, which you can freely customize or override at any time in your dashboard profile settings.
• Product Listing Information: When developers list a tool, we store details including the application name, website URL, description, category, tags, logos, screenshots, and billing details for payment verification.
• Bookmarks & Activity: We store your saved bookmarks to synchronize your favorite tools seamlessly across all your devices when signed in.
• Usage Analytics: Anonymous, aggregated metrics such as page views, search keywords, and outbound launch clicks are gathered to measure platform performance and help users find trending tools.

3. How We Use Your Data

We process collected data exclusively to:

• Provide account authentication and developer dashboard management.
• Display verified community listings, ratings, and reviews.
• Process one-time listing transactions and prevent fraudulent submissions.
• Send essential transactional notices (such as editorial approvals or security alerts).
• Maintain platform integrity, prevent malicious spam, and protect our infrastructure.

4. Cookies & Local Storage

EveryToolz uses essential cookies and browser local storage strictly for session persistence (keeping you securely signed in) and remembering non-personalized preferences (such as temporary guest bookmarks). We do not use third-party invasive cross-site tracking cookies.

5. Outbound Links & External Services

EveryToolz acts as a directory linking to third-party software creators, SaaS applications, and external websites. When you click “Visit Website” or follow an external link, you are navigating outside of EveryToolz. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of each external service you choose to use.

6. Data Security & Retention

All communications are encrypted in transit using industry-standard TLS/SSL encryption. Data is stored on enterprise-grade PostgreSQL cloud infrastructure with automated backups and strict access controls. We retain personal profile data only as long as your account remains active.

7. Your Rights (GDPR / CCPA)

Regardless of where you reside, you have the right to access, export, correct, or request the deletion of your personal account data at any time. To exercise these rights, simply email us or submit a request via your profile settings.
