This Privacy Policy explains what information mybittools.com collects when you use our free online UUID Generator, how that information is used, and the choices you have. By using this website you agree to the practices described here. If you do not agree, please do not use the website.
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Information you provide
We do not require you to create an account, sign in, or provide any personal information to use this website. There are no registration forms and no user accounts.
1.2 UUIDs you generate
All UUIDs are generated directly in your browser using client-side JavaScript. The UUIDs you generate, and the settings you choose (version and count), are never sent to our servers and are never stored by us.
1.3 Information collected automatically
When you visit the website, some information is collected automatically:
- Server logs: Like most websites, our web server may record standard technical data such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring page, the pages you visit, and the date and time of your visit. This data is used for security, debugging, and keeping the site running.
- Visitor counter: The website keeps a simple aggregate count of total page visits. This counter stores a single number only and does not record who visited or any identifying information.
- Analytics and advertising data: Collected by third-party services through cookies and similar technologies, as described in the sections below.
2. Cookies and Similar Technologies
A cookie is a small text file stored on your device by your browser. Our website itself does not set cookies for its core functionality. However, the third-party services we use (Google Analytics and Google AdSense) do use cookies and similar technologies such as web beacons and local storage to collect information about your use of this and other websites.
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse all cookies, accept only certain cookies, or delete cookies that have already been set. Disabling cookies will not prevent you from using the UUID Generator.
3. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC ("Google"), to understand how visitors use the website (for example, which pages are viewed, how long visits last, and approximate geographic region). Google Analytics uses cookies and collects data such as your IP address (which is anonymized/truncated by Google), device and browser information, and page interactions.
To learn how Google uses data when you use our site, please visit How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services. You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
4. Advertising (Google AdSense)
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on this website. Advertising helps us keep the UUID Generator free to use. Please note the following:
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info or, in the EU, www.youronlinechoices.eu.
- Third-party ad vendors and ad networks may also use cookies or web beacons when serving ads on this site. We do not control these cookies. Please consult the respective privacy policies of those third parties for more information.
For more information about how Google handles data in its advertising products, see Google's Advertising Privacy & Terms.
5. How We Use Information
We use the information described above only to:
- Operate, maintain, and secure the website;
- Understand how the website is used so we can improve it;
- Display advertisements that support the website;
- Detect, prevent, and respond to abuse, fraud, or technical problems.
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not use it to send you marketing emails.
6. Sharing of Information
We do not share personal information with third parties except with the service providers named in this policy (Google Analytics and Google AdSense), who process data on their own terms, or when required by law, legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of the website, its users, or the public.
7. Data Retention
Server logs are kept for a limited period for security and troubleshooting purposes and are then deleted or rotated. Data collected by Google Analytics and Google AdSense is retained according to Google's own retention policies.
8. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on where you live, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, including the right to:
- Access the personal information we hold about you;
- Request correction or deletion of your personal information;
- Object to or restrict certain processing;
- Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent;
- Opt out of personalized advertising (see Section 4).
Visitors in the European Economic Area (EEA), United Kingdom, and Switzerland: We process data on the basis of your consent (for advertising and analytics cookies) and our legitimate interest in operating and securing the website (for server logs). Where required, we will ask for your consent before advertising or analytics cookies are set. You may withdraw your consent at any time. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
Visitors in California: Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), you have the right to know what personal information is collected, to request its deletion, and to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information. We do not sell personal information. To opt out of personalized advertising, use the links in Section 4.
To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the details in Section 12.
9. Children's Privacy
This website is a general-audience developer tool and is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
10. Security
The website is served over HTTPS to protect data in transit. Because we collect very little information, the risk to your personal data is low. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Effective date" at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Your continued use of the website after any changes means you accept the updated policy.
