This Privacy Policy explains how SAASTOOLY ("SAASTOOLY", "we", "us" or "our") collects, uses and protects information when you visit saastooly.com (the "Site"). By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

1. Who we are

SAASTOOLY is an independent directory of software lifetime deals, with guides that help you decide when a deal is worth buying. The Site is operated by [Owner / company name], [City, Country].

Questions about this policy: support@saastooly.com

2. The short version

  • You can browse the Site without creating an account.
  • We do not sell your personal information.
  • We collect only what we need to run the Site, answer your messages and understand how the Site is used.
  • When you click a deal and buy from a seller (for example AppSumo or a software company), that seller's own privacy policy applies to your purchase.

3. Information we collect

Information you give us

  • Messages to us: your email address and whatever you include when you email us.
  • Reviews and comments: if you submit a review, the name, email address and content you provide.
  • Newsletter or tools (if offered, for example the LTD Scorecard): the email address and answers you enter.

Information collected automatically

  • Usage data: pages visited, time on page, links clicked, referring website, approximate location (city/country level), browser type, device type and IP address.
  • Cookies and similar technologies: see section 6.

We do not knowingly collect sensitive information (such as health, financial account or government ID data) and we ask that you do not send it to us.

4. How we use information

We use information to:

  • operate, maintain and improve the Site;
  • respond to your messages, corrections and support requests;
  • publish reviews you choose to submit;
  • understand which content is useful, using aggregated statistics;
  • measure the results of our own advertising (for example, whether a visit came from an ad);
  • detect and prevent spam, abuse and security problems;
  • comply with legal obligations.

5. Affiliate links

Some links on the Site are affiliate links. When you click one, the seller or affiliate network may place a cookie on your device to record that you came from SAASTOOLY, so that we can earn a commission if you make a purchase. This costs you nothing extra. These cookies are controlled by the seller or network, not by us, and are governed by their privacy policies. See our Disclaimer for details.

6. Cookies

We and our service providers use cookies and similar technologies for:

  • Essential functions: keeping the Site secure and working properly.
  • Preferences: remembering settings such as filters.
  • Analytics: understanding how visitors use the Site (for example [Google Analytics / Plausible / other]).
  • Advertising measurement: if we run ads, platforms such as [TikTok Pixel / Google Ads / Meta Pixel] may use cookies to measure ad performance.

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how the Site works. Where required by law, we ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies.

7. Sharing information

We do not sell or rent your personal information. We share it only:

  • with service providers who help us run the Site (hosting and directory platform, analytics, email), only as needed to provide their services;
  • with advertising and analytics platforms, in the form of cookie and device data described in section 6;
  • when required by law, or to protect our rights, users or the public;
  • in connection with a merger, sale or transfer of the Site, in which case this policy continues to apply to your information.

8. Data retention

We keep personal information only as long as needed for the purposes above. Emails are kept as long as needed to handle your request. Analytics data is kept in aggregated or pseudonymised form according to our analytics provider's settings.

9. International transfers

Our service providers may process data in countries other than yours, including the United States and the European Union. When we transfer data, we rely on the safeguards offered by those providers, such as standard contractual clauses.

10. Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in the EU/UK or the CCPA/CPRA in California), you may have the right to:

  • access the personal information we hold about you;
  • correct or delete it;
  • object to or restrict certain processing;
  • withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent;
  • receive a copy of your data in a portable format;
  • opt out of "sale" or "sharing" of personal information for targeted advertising (we do not sell personal information).

To use any of these rights, email support@saastooly.com. We will reply within 30 days. You may also complain to your local data protection authority.

11. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect information. However, no website or internet transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

12. Children

The Site is intended for adults and businesses. It is not directed to children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has given us information, contact us and we will delete it.

13. Third-party websites

The Site links to third-party websites, including the software sellers we list. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices. Please read their privacy policies before sharing information with them.
