This Privacy Policy describes how Bubble Tools ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, stores, protects, and shares information when you access or use our website, applications, browser extensions, APIs, and tools (collectively, the "Service"). We take your privacy seriously and want you to understand exactly what data is involved when you use Bubble Tools, why it is collected, how long it is retained, who it may be shared with, and what rights and choices you have at every step.
By using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read and understood this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, please discontinue use of the Service. This policy is designed to comply with applicable privacy laws including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the UK GDPR, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), Brazil's LGPD, and Canada's PIPEDA, as well as advertising program policies from partners such as Google AdSense.
Information We Collect
We collect information in three broad categories: information you provide directly, information collected automatically when you use the Service, and information received from third-party partners such as analytics and advertising providers.
- Information you provide: text, prompts, URLs, keywords, code, or other content you paste or type into our tools; messages you send via the contact form (name, email, message body); and any feedback or correspondence you share with us.
- Usage and device data: IP address, approximate location derived from IP, browser type and version, operating system, device type and identifiers, screen resolution, language preferences, referring URL, pages visited, features used, search queries within the Service, click events, timestamps, time spent on page, and error logs.
- Cookies and similar technologies: first-party and third-party cookies, local storage, session storage, pixels, web beacons, and SDKs used for essential functionality, preference storage, analytics, fraud prevention, and personalized or non-personalized advertising. See our Cookie Policy for details.
- Information from third parties: aggregated demographic and interest data from advertising and analytics partners, anti-fraud signals, and information from social platforms if you choose to share content from the Service.
We do not knowingly request or store special categories of personal data (such as health, biometric, or political opinions). Please avoid pasting such data into any public tool input.
How We Use Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes, each grounded in a lawful basis under applicable privacy law (consent, contract performance, legitimate interest, or legal obligation):
- To operate, deliver, maintain, and improve the Service and its individual tools.
- To personalize your experience, such as remembering theme and language preferences.
- To analyze aggregate usage, identify popular tools, debug issues, and prioritize new features.
- To deliver and measure advertising, including both personalized and non-personalized ads served by Google AdSense and other partners.
- To respond to your inquiries, support requests, and feedback.
- To protect the Service against fraud, abuse, scraping, denial-of-service, and other security threats.
- To comply with legal obligations, enforce our Terms of Service, and defend our legal rights.
Third-Party Advertising
Bubble Tools partners with third-party advertising networks, including Google AdSense, to display advertisements on the Service. These networks may use cookies, web beacons, device identifiers, and similar technologies to collect information about your visits to our Service and other websites and apps over time in order to deliver advertising about products and services that may interest you, to measure ad performance, and to detect and prevent ad fraud.
Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies (including the DART cookie) to serve ads on our Service based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to our site and other sites on the Internet.
You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or, for participating ad networks, by visiting aboutads.info/choices and youronlinechoices.eu. You may also review Google's privacy and advertising policies at policies.google.com/technologies/ads. If you are visiting from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we (and our advertising partners) will request your consent before setting non-essential cookies via a consent banner.
Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the Service, remember preferences, analyze traffic, and deliver advertising. You can control cookies through your browser settings and through our consent banner where applicable. Disabling cookies may affect site functionality. For a full breakdown of the cookies we and our partners use, please see our Cookie Policy.
Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy or as required by law. Contact form submissions are retained for up to 24 months. Aggregated analytics data may be retained indefinitely in a form that does not personally identify you. Server access logs are typically retained for up to 90 days for security and debugging.
Data Sharing
We do not sell your personal information for monetary consideration. We may share information with: (a) service providers who help us operate the Service (hosting, analytics, advertising, email, security, customer support), bound by appropriate confidentiality and data-protection obligations; (b) advertising partners as described above; (c) authorities, courts, or other parties when required by law, subpoena, or to protect rights, property, or safety; and (d) acquirers in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets, subject to standard confidentiality.
International Data Transfers
The Service is operated globally and your information may be processed in countries other than your own, including the United States and the European Union. Where required by law, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses to protect your information when it is transferred internationally.
Security
We use industry-standard administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information, including HTTPS encryption in transit, access controls, and regular review of our security practices. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure; you use the Service at your own risk.
Your Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to: access the personal information we hold about you; correct inaccurate information; request deletion ("right to be forgotten"); restrict or object to certain processing; receive a copy of your data in a portable format; withdraw consent; and lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. California residents have additional rights under the CCPA/CPRA, including the right to know categories of information collected, the right to opt out of sharing for targeted advertising, and the right to non-discrimination. To exercise any of these rights, contact us via the Contact page. We will respond within the timeframe required by applicable law.
Children's Privacy
Our Service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA where applicable). If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our practices, technology, legal requirements, or for other operational reasons. When we make material changes, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, provide additional notice. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
