Privacy Policy

1. Overview

ufind.best (“we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to respecting and protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes what information we collect, how we use it, and the measures we take to keep it secure when you visit or interact with our platform.

By accessing or using ufind.best, you agree to this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please refrain from using our website and services.

2. What We Collect

We collect limited information to make the platform functional, secure, and user-friendly:

• Account Details: When you log in through Google or GitHub, we receive basic profile information such as your name, email address, and profile picture. We do not access or store your password.
• Tool and Product Submissions: Information you provide when submitting a tool (e.g., title, description, links, and category) is stored to display your submission publicly.
• Analytics Data: We use MyAnalytics, a privacy-focused analytics system that gathers anonymous, aggregated metrics such as page views, referral sources, device type, and approximate (country-level) location. It does not use cookies or track individuals.
• Payment Details: For paid listings or sponsored placements, transactions are processed securely by Stripe. We never store credit card or payment information on our servers.

3. How We Use Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

• To operate, manage, and improve the ufind.best platform
• To review, publish, and display tool submissions
• To process payments and verify transactions
• To maintain platform security and detect misuse
• To understand usage trends through MyAnalytics
• To comply with applicable laws and regulations

4. Third-Party Integrations

We rely on several external providers to offer essential features and functionality. These services operate independently and maintain their own privacy policies:

• Google OAuth: Used for user authentication (see Google’s Privacy Policy).
• GitHub OAuth: Used for user authentication (see GitHub’s Privacy Policy).
• Stripe: Used for secure, one-time payment processing (see Stripe’s Privacy Policy).
• MyAnalytics: Used for aggregated, cookie-less usage statistics.

We encourage users to review these third-party policies to understand how your data may be processed by them.

5. Security and Data Protection

We take data protection seriously and employ safeguards to secure information under our control:

• All communication is encrypted via SSL/TLS
• OAuth authentication means no passwords are stored on our servers
• Payment information is handled exclusively by Stripe
• MyAnalytics collects anonymous, non-identifiable data only
• Server infrastructure is monitored and maintained for security

While we use reasonable security measures, no system is completely immune from vulnerabilities. You use ufind.best at your own risk.

6. Cookies and Similar Technologies

We keep our use of cookies minimal and transparent:

• Essential Cookies: Used to keep you signed in and enable site functionality.
• Analytics: MyAnalytics does not use cookies or collect personal data.
• Payments: Stripe may use cookies to facilitate secure payment sessions.
• Marketing: We do not use marketing or advertising cookies.

7. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell, rent, or trade user information. Your data may be shared only when necessary to operate the platform or as legally required:

• With OAuth providers for secure login
• With Stripe to process transactions
• With service providers assisting in hosting or technical maintenance
• When required by law, regulation, or legal request

8. Data Retention and Deletion

We retain information only as long as it is necessary to deliver our services or as required by law. If you delete your account, most personal data is permanently removed from our systems, except information we must retain for security, fraud prevention, or legal obligations.

9. Your Rights and Control

You have control over your information and may, at any time:

• Request a copy of your personal information
• Update or correct inaccurate data
• Request deletion of your data
• Withdraw consent (where applicable)
• Request data portability to another service

To make any of these requests, contact us at [email protected].

10. Children’s Privacy

ufind.best is intended for users aged 13 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us immediately so we can take appropriate action.

11. Updates to This Policy

We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top reflects the latest revision. Material updates will be posted on this page, and continued use of our services constitutes acceptance of those changes.
