Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 1, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains what information PocketProof ("we," "us," "PocketProof") collects when you visit pocketproof.net, how it's used, and the choices you have. By using this site, you agree to the practices described below.

Information we collect

PocketProof does not require you to create an account to read this site. We collect information in a few limited ways:

• Information you provide directly — if you contact us by email or subscribe to our newsletter, we collect whatever information you choose to share (such as your email address and message contents).
• Automatically collected information — like most websites, we automatically log standard technical data such as your browser type, device type, general location (city/region level), pages visited, and referring site, via the analytics tools described below.

Cookies and advertising

This site may display ads served by third-party advertising companies, such as Google AdSense. These companies may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet.

You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or generally at optout.aboutads.info.

Analytics

This site uses Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site — for example, which pages are viewed, how long visitors stay, and what site or search engine referred them here. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to collect this information, and the data is processed by Google in accordance with the Google Privacy Policy. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Email newsletter

If you subscribe to our newsletter, your email address is stored and processed by our email service provider, Mailchimp, solely to send you the content you signed up for. We don't sell or rent your email address to third parties. Every email includes an unsubscribe link, and you can opt out at any time.

Affiliate links and advertising disclosure

PocketProof is reader-supported. Some links on this site are affiliate links, meaning that if you click through and make a purchase or sign up for a product or service, we may earn a commission at no additional cost to you. This is in compliance with FTC guidelines regarding endorsements and testimonials.

We only recommend products and services we genuinely believe are useful to our readers. Affiliate relationships never influence which topics we cover, what we recommend, or the substance of our editorial content — our opinions and analysis are our own.

Third-party links

This site may link to other websites. We aren't responsible for the privacy practices or content of external sites.

Children's privacy

This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
