📜 Privacy Policy for Flickot.com

Effective Date: June 5, 2025

At Flickot.com, your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, protect, and share your information — clearly and honestly.

We believe in full transparency. We never sell your data. We don’t track you unnecessarily. And we don’t trick you with fine print.

🔍 1. What Information We Collect

a) Voluntarily Provided Information

We may collect:

Your name (if provided)

We do not require account signups or passwords.

b) Automatically Collected Information

Like most websites, we use tools like:

Cookies (to help the site load properly and remember preferences)
AdSense tracking (to show relevant, policy-compliant ads)

This data may include:

Your IP address
Browser type and version
Pages you visit on Flickot.com

Performance cookies help us understand what content is popular.
Functional cookies may remember your preferences (like dark mode, if we support it).
Advertising cookies from Google AdSense may show you relevant ads.

⚠️ You can disable cookies through your browser at any time. Our site remains accessible even with cookies turned off.

📈 3. Why We Collect This Data

We collect and use your data to:

Improve our content and user experience
Understand what topics our audience cares about
Show relevant ads (to support our site without charging readers)
Respond to messages you send us

We do not:

Use third-party email scraping or cold outreach tools

🛡️ 4. How We Protect Your Data

We use:

HTTPS encryption
Secure email systems
Spam filtering tools
Regular plugin/theme updates (for WordPress security)

We store minimal data — and only for as long as needed to serve our audience or comply with legal requirements.

👥 5. Who Has Access to Your Data

Only the core team of Flickot.com has access to any personal data you provide voluntarily (like messages or email subscriptions).

We may use trusted third-party tools like:

Google Analytics
Google AdSense
Mailchimp or ConvertKit (if we run newsletters)

These tools have their own privacy policies and comply with GDPR/CCPA standards.

🌍 6. Third-Party Links and Services

Our articles may contain links to trusted external sites (like Canva.com, Google.com, etc.).

We only link to sources we trust, but we’re not responsible for how other websites handle your data. Once you leave Flickot.com, you are subject to the policies of that other site.

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

Request a copy of your personal data
Ask us to delete your personal data

🚫 8. Children’s Privacy

Flickot.com does not knowingly collect data from children under the age of 13. If you’re a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we’ll delete it promptly.

🔄 9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy from time to time to stay aligned with legal changes and user needs. We’ll update the “Effective Date” at the top and may announce major updates in blog posts or email (if you’re subscribed).
