This policy explains what information ToolScope collects, why, and the choices you have. It is written in plain language and updated as our services evolve.

What we collect

  • Account data — email address, hashed password credentials via our authentication provider, and profile settings you choose to save.
  • Submissions and reviews — text you post publicly, including tool submissions, reviews, corrections and contest requests.
  • Domain verification records — challenge tokens you place at your domain to prove ownership of a listing.
  • Analytics — aggregate usage information used to improve the service.
  • Crawler activity — public web pages we retrieve to build listings; identified as ToolScopeBot/1.0 (+https://toolscope.biz/bot).
  • Newsletter opt-ins — email addresses of subscribers who confirmed their subscription.

Cookies

We use strictly necessary cookies for authentication and session continuity. See our cookie policy for details.

Your rights

You can request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data by contacting us. Deletion of an account removes account data and unpublishes reviews attributed to it.

Changes to this policy

We update this policy as the product changes. Material changes will be reflected on this page with a revised effective date.
