Privacy Policy

Information We Collect

BuildMyHabitat is designed to be privacy-friendly. We collect minimal information:

• Build Data: Your habitat configurations are stored locally in your browser. We don't send this data to our servers unless you explicitly share a build via URL.
• Analytics: We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site. This includes anonymous data like page views, time on site, and general location (country/city level). This data is derived from IP addresses and is not used to identify individual users.
• No Personal Accounts: We don't require registration or collect email addresses, names, or payment information.

How We Use Your Information

• To improve our website and user experience
• To understand which features are most useful
• To fix bugs and technical issues
• We do not sell your personal data.
• We do not use third-party advertising pixels or run targeted advertising campaigns.
• Analytics data is used only to understand site usage and improve functionality.

Cookies and Tracking

We use cookies for:

• Analytics: Some analytics cookies may be set automatically when you use the site. Google Analytics cookies track site usage. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking using Google's opt-out tools.
• Local Storage: Your saved builds are stored in your browser's local storage, not on our servers
• No Third-Party Advertising: We don't use advertising cookies or tracking pixels

Affiliate Links

BuildMyHabitat uses Amazon affiliate links. When you click on a product link and make a purchase, we earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. This helps us keep the site free.

Amazon may use cookies to track that you came from our site. This is standard affiliate marketing practice and is covered by Amazon's privacy policy.

Your Rights

• You can clear your browser's local storage to delete saved builds
• You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking using Google's opt-out tools
• You can contact us with privacy concerns (see contact information below)

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect any changes. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.

Children's Privacy

BuildMyHabitat does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Because we do not collect personal data or require accounts, this risk is minimal.
