PRIVACY POLICY FOR ACCESSTOUSERMANUALS.COM
Effective Date: October 2025
This Privacy Policy explains what information https://accesstousermanuals.com/ (referred to as “AccessToUserManuals.com,” “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects from individuals who visit https://accesstousermanuals.com/ (the “Site”), download or use the Access to User Manuals browser extension or web application (the “Software”), and/or use our services (“User(s)” or “you”).
Please review this Privacy Policy carefully to understand how we collect, use, and protect your information. If you do not agree to this Privacy Policy, please do not visit the Site, install the Software, or use our services.
1. OVERVIEW AND INFORMATION COLLECTED
This Privacy Policy applies only to information collected through the Site and Software.
We collect two types of information:
Personally Identifiable Information (PII): Information that identifies you directly, such as your name or email address (only if you contact us).
Non-Personally Identifiable Information (NPII): Technical and statistical data that does not identify you personally, such as your browser type, operating system, IP address, device information, search queries, referring URLs, and usage patterns.
If we undergo a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify users via a notice on the homepage in the event of any ownership or control change.
2. COLLECTION OF PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION (PII)
We collect PII only when you voluntarily provide it — for example, through our Contact Us form or when communicating with our support team.
We do not sell, rent, or trade your PII. We may share your PII only in the following limited cases:
With our Related Companies (employees, contractors, subsidiaries, or affiliates) as needed to operate and maintain the Site and Software.
With trusted service providers who help us operate the Site and deliver our services (for hosting, analytics, security, customer support, or legal compliance). These third parties are required to keep your information confidential and use it only to perform their functions.
When legally required — such as in response to a subpoena, court order, or other legal process, or to protect our rights, safety, and property.
We will never share your PII with unaffiliated companies for direct marketing purposes without your consent.
3. USE OF PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION
We use your PII to:
Respond to your inquiries and support requests.
Operate, maintain, and improve the Site and Software.
Communicate with you regarding updates or policy changes.
Comply with legal obligations and resolve disputes.
We retain PII only as long as necessary to fulfill these purposes or comply with applicable laws.
4. NON-PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION (NPII)
When you use the Site or Software, we may automatically collect NPII such as:
IP address and approximate geographic location.
Browser type, version, and operating system.
URLs and metadata of the pages or manuals you access.
Usage behavior, session length, and interaction patterns.
We use this NPII to:
Improve Site functionality and performance.
Understand how users interact with our content.
Display relevant sponsored content or advertisements (“Third-Party Content”).
Detect fraud, abuse, or security issues.
NPII may be aggregated or anonymized and shared with analytics or advertising partners. This information cannot identify you personally.
If you wish to stop data collection, you may uninstall the Software at any time (see Section 10 – Removal).
5. COOKIES AND TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES
The Site and Software use cookies and similar technologies to enhance user experience, remember preferences, and analyze traffic. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help our Site function properly.
You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings:
Third-Party Cookies
We may work with third-party partners (e.g., analytics or advertising networks) who use cookies or beacons to gather anonymized data for analytics, performance, and content personalization.
You can opt out of behavioral advertising from members of the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) by visiting http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices.
Clearing cookies or switching browsers resets opt-out preferences.
6. WEB BEACONS
We may use web beacons (pixel tags) to track Site usage and measure the effectiveness of content, campaigns, or user engagement. Web beacons help us compile aggregate statistics and are not linked to PII.
7. THIRD-PARTY CONTENT AND LINKS
The Site and Software may display or link to external content (“Third-Party Content”), including advertisements, manuals, or resources from third-party websites.
We do not control these third parties, and this Privacy Policy does not apply to their practices. When you click on Third-Party Content, you are subject to that entity’s own privacy policy and terms of use.
Your interactions with Third-Party Content are solely between you and the third party.
8. SECURITY
We employ technical, administrative, and physical measures to protect your information, including encrypted transmission where appropriate, secure servers, and restricted access.
However, no system is entirely secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of data transmitted through the Internet. Any transmission is at your own risk.
9. CHILDREN’S PRIVACY
Our Site and Software are not intended for children under 18 years of age, and we do not knowingly collect PII from minors.
If we learn that we have inadvertently collected information from a child under 18, we will promptly delete it.
10. REMOVAL
If you no longer wish for your data to be collected or used, you may:
Uninstall the Software by following the directions on our Uninstall Page.
Request deletion or correction of your information by emailing support@accesstousermanuals.com.
We will respond to verified requests within a reasonable timeframe, in compliance with applicable data protection laws.
