6) Cookies and similar technologies

We may use the following categories of cookies/technologies:

  • Strictly necessary: required for core site functions (e.g., page rendering, basic preferences).
  • Analytics and performance: to understand traffic and improve the experience.
  • Functional: to remember your settings (e.g., category filters, sort order).

You can control cookies via your browser settings. Where required by law, we will request your consent for non-essential cookies and honor withdrawals of consent. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, we will treat it as a valid request to opt out in jurisdictions where this is required.

7) Sharing and disclosures

We do not sell your personal data. We may share limited personal data with:

  • Service providers: hosting, analytics, security, content delivery, and email providers working on our behalf under appropriate safeguards.
  • Legal and safety: authorities or third parties where required by law or to protect rights, safety, and security.
  • Business transfers: in connection with a merger, acquisition, or similar event, your data may transfer as permitted by law.

8) Data retention

We retain personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this policy, unless a longer period is required or permitted by law. Retention periods consider the nature of the data, the purpose of processing, and legal/operational requirements.

9) Security

We apply reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal data. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10) International data transfers

Your data may be processed in countries outside your own. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for international transfers, such as contractual protections.

11) Your privacy rights

11.1 EEA/UK

Subject to applicable law, you may request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, or object to certain processing. You can also withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent.

11.2 California and certain U.S. states

Depending on your state, you may have rights to access, delete, correct, opt out of certain processing, or appeal our decision. If you reside in California, you may also request information about our data practices and opt out of sharing for cross-context behavioral advertising.

11.3 Exercising your rights

To submit a privacy request, email aappsroket@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling requests and will respond within the time limits required by law.

12) Children’s privacy

Appsroket is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child provided personal data, contact us to request deletion.

14) Directories and APIs

Appsroket curates listings across categories and may expose read-only endpoints (for example, /api/*.json) that contain public metadata about tools (such as names, links, tags). These endpoints are intended for discovery and presentation. Do not submit sensitive personal data to these endpoints. If you believe content in a listing includes personal data and want it removed or updated, email aappsroket@gmail.com.

15) Your choices and controls

  • Cookie settings: manage via your browser; where available, use on-site controls to adjust non-essential cookies.
  • Communications: if you contact us, you can request we stop contacting you further.
  • Do Not Track / GPC: we honor legally required browser signals where applicable.

16) Changes to this policy
