Information We Collect

Automatically collected data

When you visit explainmcp.com, our hosting provider and analytics tools may automatically collect standard log data including your IP address, browser type, referring URLs, pages visited, and time spent on pages. This data is used in aggregate form only and is not linked to personally identifiable information.

Cookies

We use cookies for the following purposes:

  • Analytics cookies — Google Analytics sets cookies to help us understand how visitors use the site. These cookies collect information in aggregate and anonymized form.
  • Advertising cookies — Google AdSense sets cookies to display relevant advertisements. These cookies may track your browsing behavior across websites to show personalized ads.
  • Functional cookies — We may set cookies to remember your preferences (such as filter tab selections). These contain no personally identifiable information.

You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. You can manage ad personalization through Google's Ad Settings.

Google AdSense

explainmcp.com uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google AdSense uses cookies and web beacons to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other websites.

Google Analytics collects data such as pages visited, time on page, geographic region (country level), device type, and traffic sources. This data is processed by Google and made available to us in aggregated, anonymized reports. We do not enable user ID tracking or any features that link analytics data to personally identifiable information.

  • Require account registration or collect personal information
  • Store form submissions (contact form submissions are handled client-side only)
  • Sell or share personal data with third parties beyond what is described in this policy

Each of these services has its own Privacy Policy governing how they use data. We encourage you to review Google's Privacy Policy.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights under GDPR, CCPA, or other privacy laws, including the right to access, correct, or delete data about you. Since we collect minimal personal data, these rights mainly apply to data held by our third-party service providers (Google). Contact us if you have questions about exercising these rights.

Data Retention

We retain server log data for up to 30 days. Google Analytics data is retained according to Google's standard retention policies. We do not retain any personally submitted data as our contact form does not transmit data to any server.
