Information we collect

We do not require accounts and do not ask for personal information. Search queries you type are processed in your browser and are not sent to or stored by us. Like most websites, our hosting provider may log standard technical data (IP address, browser type, pages visited, time of visit) for security and performance.

We use Google AdSense to show ads. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.

You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or www.aboutads.info. Learn more at How Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Your rights (GDPR / UK GDPR)

If you are in the EEA or UK, you have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to processing of your personal data, and to withdraw consent for advertising cookies at any time. Where required, we ask for your consent before personalized ads are shown.

California residents (CCPA / CPRA)

We do not sell personal information for money. Sharing of cookie data with advertising partners may be considered "sharing" under California law; you can opt out using the links above or your browser's Global Privacy Control signal.
