Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important to us. This notice explains our online information practices and the choices you can make about the way your information is collected and used. We keep this policy available from the homepage and anywhere personally identifiable information may be requested.

Google uses cookies to help serve the ads it displays on partners’ websites. When users visit a Google partner website, a cookie may be dropped on that end user’s browser.

• Third-party vendors (including Google) use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to your website or other websites.
• Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on visits to your sites and/or other sites on the Internet.
• Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can direct users to opt out of a third-party vendor’s use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info.

A “cookie” is a small piece of information placed on your device when you visit certain websites. We use “cookies” to include similar technologies like tags and identifiers. On your first visit (or when using private browsing), we show a cookie banner where required by law. From this banner you can access cookie controls. By clicking OK or continuing to use the site, we begin managing your visit using cookies.

• Analytics cookies: anonymously remember your device to understand browsing patterns and help us improve the site. We may use this information to present content or ads we believe are relevant.
• Service cookies: help the site function; remember registration/logins, preferences, device type/screen size, and meter page views (e.g., for subscription features).
• Third-party advertising & analytics cookies: placed by or on behalf of independent advertisers and analytics providers. These are anonymous, help measure impressions/frequency, and can tailor ads when you visit other sites using the same browser.
• We do not have access to third-party cookies and third parties do not have access to ours. Their use is governed by their own privacy policies (e.g., Google).

• We use return email addresses solely to reply to inquiries. Addresses submitted for optional .DLL file notifications are kept confidential and used only to notify when a requested file is released.
• We use non-identifying aggregate data to improve our site and share with advertisers (e.g., number of visitors to a page). We do not disclose information that can identify individuals.
• We do not use or share personally identifiable information in ways unrelated to this policy without providing an opportunity to opt out.
• When visitors leave comments, we collect the data shown in the form and may collect IP address and browser user agent to help with spam detection.

We implement appropriate physical, electronic, and managerial procedures to safeguard information against unauthorized access, maintain accuracy, and ensure appropriate use.

We do not knowingly collect or maintain information from individuals under 13, and our site is not structured to attract them.

• .DLL uploads: files and related metadata may be retained indefinitely to support verification, categorization, and accurate versioning on the file details page.
• Comments: comments and their metadata may be retained indefinitely to support moderation and recognition of follow-ups.
• Registered users (if any): personal profile information is stored as provided. Users can view, edit, or delete their information at any time (except username). Administrators may also view and edit that information.

If you upload images, avoid embedding location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors may download images and extract any embedded location data. Certain areas of the site may reprocess images server-side and remove EXIF GPS data during reprocessing.

• If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an export of the personal data we hold about you, including data you provided.
• You may request that we erase personal data we hold about you, subject to data we must retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.
• If you are a software developer/representative and want a .dll removed, contact us. We can blacklist or remove specific .dll files by MD5 hash to prevent re-uploads and optionally direct users to an official publisher URL.
• To protect privacy and security, we may take reasonable steps to verify identity before granting access or making corrections.

You can correct factual errors in your personally identifiable information by sending us a request that credibly shows the error. We will take reasonable steps to verify identity before granting access or making corrections.
