This Privacy Policy explains how Simplified Guide (“we”, “us”, or “our”) handles information when you visit www.simplified.guide, read guides, use embedded content, view advertising, or contact us through the site.
Simplified Guide is a public technical guide site. Most pages can be read without creating an account or intentionally providing personal information.
You may choose to provide information when you contact us, submit a correction, send feedback, or use an embedded form. This information may include your name, email address, message content, and any technical details you include in the request.
We use this information to respond to messages, review corrections, improve guides, and manage site-related communication.
Like most websites, our server may record information that your browser sends when you visit the site. This may include your IP address, browser type, device information, referring page, requested URL, date and time of access, and basic diagnostic information.
We use this log data to operate the website, diagnose technical issues, protect the site from abuse, and understand general traffic patterns.
Cookies and similar technologies may be used to remember browser state, measure traffic, support embedded content, and display advertising. You can configure your browser to block or delete cookies, but some site features, embedded forms, videos, analytics, or advertising behavior may not work as intended.
We use Google Analytics and Google Tag Manager to understand how visitors use the site. These services may collect information such as page views, browser and device information, approximate location derived from network data, referring pages, and interaction data.
Google explains how it handles information from sites and apps that use Google services at Google Privacy Policy and Google services on partner sites.
Simplified Guide displays advertising to support the site. Advertising may be served through NitroPay and its advertising partners. Advertising partners may use cookies, device identifiers, IP addresses, browser information, ad impressions, ad interactions, and similar data to deliver, measure, limit, and improve ads.
Nitro's privacy policy is available at Nitro Privacy Policy.
Some advertising demand may involve Google advertising services or other third-party ad technology providers. Their data handling is governed by their own privacy policies and user controls.
Some pages may include embedded content or services from third parties, such as YouTube videos, Google Forms, external images, affiliate links, or links to related projects. These third parties may collect information according to their own privacy policies when you interact with their content or visit their sites.
The contact page uses an embedded Google Form. Information submitted through that form is processed by Google and made available to us for the purpose of reviewing and responding to the message.
We use collected information to operate the site, maintain security, troubleshoot errors, respond to messages, improve guides, understand aggregate site usage, and support advertising that funds the site.
We do not ask readers to create accounts for normal guide access.
We take reasonable steps to protect information handled through the site. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Simplified Guide links to external websites, tools, documentation, services, and projects. We are not responsible for the content, privacy policies, or practices of third-party sites.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes are effective when posted on this page.
