We built this policy to be straightforward and easy to understand. No legal jargon where plain language works better. By using this website, you agree to the practices described here.

That is it. We do not require account registration, do not process payments, and do not run a newsletter. You can browse every page on WiFi Analyzer without giving us any personal details.

Third-Party Services

WiFi Analyzer relies on a small number of third-party services. Each has its own privacy policy that governs how they handle data:

We do not control how these third parties handle data once it reaches their systems. We encourage you to review their respective policies.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

• We do not sell your personal data to anyone.
• We do not share your data with third parties beyond the services described above (Google, Cloudflare).
• We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or legal process.
• Aggregated, anonymized data (which cannot identify you) may be used internally for site improvement.

Data Retention

• Server logs: Retained for up to 30 days, then automatically purged.
• Analytics data: Retained according to Google Analytics default settings (up to 14 months).
• Contact form submissions: Kept until your inquiry is resolved, then deleted.
• Cookies: Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Persistent cookies expire based on their individual settings (typically a few months).

Your Rights and Choices

You have control over your data. Here is what you can do:

• Disable cookies in your browser settings at any time.

If you are located in the European Union or European Economic Area, you have additional rights under the GDPR, including the right to access, rectify, erase, port, and object to the processing of your personal data.

If you are a California resident, the CCPA grants you the right to know what personal information is collected, request its deletion, opt out of its sale (we do not sell data), and receive equal service regardless of exercising these rights.

Children’s Privacy

WiFi Analyzer is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. If we discover that a child under 13 has provided us with personal data, we will delete it promptly. If you believe a child has submitted data to us, please contact us through the Contact page.

Security

We take reasonable steps to protect the information collected through wifi-analyzer.com:

• All traffic is encrypted via HTTPS/SSL.
• Cloudflare provides DDoS protection and a Web Application Firewall (WAF).
• Server access is restricted to authorized personnel only.

That said, no method of transmission over the internet is guaranteed to be 100% secure. We cannot promise absolute security, but we work to protect your data with industry-standard practices.

International Data Transfers

Our web servers and the third-party services we use may process data in countries outside your own. By using wifi-analyzer.com, you consent to such transfers. Where applicable, we rely on standard contractual clauses and other recognized safeguards to protect transferred data.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last Updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of wifi-analyzer.com after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms.
