Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

The website is operated under the EcoIntentions brand. For privacy-related questions, contact us at [email protected].

2. Information we collect

Depending on how you use the site, we may process:

• Usage and device data — pages viewed, referring URLs, approximate location (country/region), browser type, operating system, screen size, language settings, and timestamps.
• Cookie and advertising identifiers — cookies, mobile advertising IDs, and similar technologies placed by us or our partners to measure traffic and deliver ads.
• Search and filter activity — keywords you enter in on-site search or category filters on the homepage and articles section (processed locally in your browser where possible; analytics partners may also receive aggregated interaction data).
• Information you submit voluntarily — if you contact us by email or use any future forms on the site.

We do not require account registration to browse the directory or read articles. We do not knowingly collect payment card numbers or government ID numbers through this website.

3. How we use information

We use collected information to:

• Operate, secure, and improve the website and its navigation features;
• Understand which categories, tools, and articles are most useful to visitors;
• Measure marketing performance and site traffic trends;
• Display relevant advertisements that help fund the free directory;
• Detect abuse, fraud, or technical issues;
• Comply with applicable legal obligations.

4. Cookies and similar technologies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We and our partners use cookies and similar technologies for essential site functions, analytics, and advertising.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking cookies may limit certain features. Where required by law, we will request your consent before placing non-essential analytics or advertising cookies.

5. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics (Google Analytics 4) to understand how visitors use EcoIntentions — for example, which pages are visited, how long sessions last, and general traffic sources. Google may process data on servers outside your country.

Google Analytics uses cookies and may collect IP addresses in truncated or anonymized form depending on configuration. You can opt out of Google Analytics using Google’s browser add-on: Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Learn more in Google’s documentation: How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services and the Google Privacy Policy.

6. Google advertising services

We may use Google advertising products (such as Google AdSense, Google Ad Manager, or related Google marketing tags) to show ads on EcoIntentions. These services may use cookies or mobile identifiers to:

• Deliver and limit the frequency of ads;
• Measure ad impressions and clicks;
• Personalize ads based on your interests inferred from browsing activity across participating sites.

You can manage personalized Google ads at Google Ads Settings. For EU/UK/EEA users, see also Google’s user consent policy.

7. PropellerAds

We work with PropellerAds (Propeller Ads Limited and affiliates) to display third-party advertisements. PropellerAds and its partners may use cookies, pixels, and device identifiers to serve ads, cap frequency, prevent fraud, and measure campaign performance.

PropellerAds may collect or receive technical data such as IP address, browser user agent, device type, and ad interaction events. For details and opt-out options, review the PropellerAds Privacy Policy.

8. Third-party links and listed services

EcoIntentions links to external websites, tools, and services (for example, browsers, proxy providers, ad platforms, and SaaS products). Those third parties operate independently. We are not responsible for their privacy practices. We encourage you to read the privacy policies of any service you visit from our directory or articles.

Our disclaimer applies: listings are curated from third parties for informational purposes. EcoIntentions does not control and is not affiliated with every listed product unless explicitly stated.

9. Data sharing

We may share limited data with:

• Analytics and advertising partners listed above (Google, PropellerAds);
• Hosting, CDN, and security providers that help us deliver the website;
• Authorities when required by law or to protect our rights and users.

We do not sell your personal information for money. Some advertising partners may treat certain online identifiers as “sharing” under regional privacy laws.

10. Data retention

Analytics and ad logs are retained according to each partner’s policies and our operational needs, typically for months unless a longer period is required for security or legal compliance.

11. Your privacy rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you;
• Object to or restrict certain processing;
• Withdraw consent where processing is consent-based;
• Opt out of personalized advertising or analytics;
• Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

To exercise these rights, email [email protected]. We may need to verify your request.

12. International transfers

Our partners may process data in countries other than where you live, including the United States and European Economic Area. Those transfers are subject to the safeguards described in our partners’ policies and applicable law.

13. Children’s privacy

EcoIntentions is intended for adults and business users interested in cross-border commerce and marketing tools. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 16. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will delete it.

14. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy when we add new features, partners, or legal requirements. The “Last updated” date at the top will change, and material updates may be highlighted on the site. Continued use after changes means you accept the revised policy.
