Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information MODZILO collects and why.

Information we collect

• Account data: name, username, e-mail and a securely hashed password when you register.
• Content you submit: reviews, reports and contact messages.
• Usage statistics: anonymous page views, download-button clicks, which site or link brought you here, and how far guides are read. Our statistics do not store IP addresses; we use a daily-rotating anonymous identifier and, where available, a country code provided by our CDN. Only if you accept all cookies, a random visitor ID (the mz_vid cookie) lets us count returning visitors; it is never linked to your account. The mobile app uses a random install ID for the same purpose, plus the app version and anonymous error reports.
• Security records: your IP address is kept with your browser session (deleted within a few hours after it ends) and, for staff actions, in the admin audit log.
• How long we keep statistics: detailed statistics for 60 days, download clicks and returning-visitor counts for about 13 months; after that only daily totals remain.

Cookies

We use essential cookies (session, security, language and theme). Advertising cookies are set by Google AdSense; where the law requires consent (for example in the EU, UK and Switzerland), only after you agree — see the Cookie Policy.

Your rights

You can edit your profile or delete your account at any time from Account → Settings. Contact us for any privacy request.

Advertising

MODZILO shows ads to keep the service free. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings (adssettings.google.com), or opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies at www.aboutads.info. Where the law requires consent (for example in the EU, UK and Switzerland), advertising cookies load only after you agree in the consent message.

Third parties

Downloads are provided by external hosts with their own privacy policies.

We also use Google Analytics to understand how the site is used: pages visited, downloads started, and approximate location and device type. It does not receive your name or e-mail. Where the law requires consent, it runs without cookies until you agree. You can opt out with Google's browser add-on at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. Push notifications in the mobile app are delivered by OneSignal, and app analytics and crash reports by Google Firebase.
