Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how explorerpatcher.app ("we", "us", or "our") handles information when you visit this website. We have deliberately kept this site simple: it exists to help you download ExplorerPatcher and to explain how to use it.

Information we collect directly

explorerpatcher.app is a static website. We do not ask you to create an account, fill in forms, or provide any personal information to use it, and we do not ourselves collect, store, sell, or rent names, email addresses, or similar personal data through this site. The only data processing on this site comes from our hosting provider's server logs and from the third-party advertising described below.

Server logs

Like most websites, our hosting provider may automatically record standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, and the pages requested, purely to keep the site running and secure. We do not use this information to identify you and we do not combine it with any other data.

Cookies and advertising

This website displays third-party advertising through Google AdSense. To serve these ads, Google and its partners (including third-party vendors) use cookies and similar technologies. The DoubleClick / AdSense cookie enables Google and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and other sites on the internet.

You can learn how Google uses information from sites that use its services in Google's “How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services” page. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of a third party's use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info/choices. You can also control cookies in your browser settings.

If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, ads are shown in line with applicable consent requirements; where you do not consent to personalized advertising, Google may instead serve non-personalized ads, which rely on contextual information rather than your past browsing.

Downloads and external links

When you click a download or external link, you leave explorerpatcher.app and continue to a third-party service - for example, the official valinet/ExplorerPatcher GitHub Releases page where the application is hosted. The download itself is the original, unmodified ExplorerPatcher release; we do not host, modify, or repackage it. Those third-party services have their own privacy policies, and we are not responsible for their practices. We encourage you to review them.

Children's privacy

This site is intended for a general audience and does not knowingly collect any information from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date.
