Your privacy is important to us. This policy outlines how we handle your information.

At ColorCodeResistance.com, we are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the steps we take to ensure your data is handled responsibly. By using our website, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.

Information We Collect

We believe in collecting only the information necessary to provide and improve our services. Our website primarily operates as a tool for calculating resistor color codes and providing educational content. As such, we collect very limited personal information.

  • Non-Personal Information: We may collect non-personal information about your visit, such as your IP address, browser type, operating system, referral source, length of visit, and pages viewed. This data is aggregated and anonymized and helps us understand how our users interact with the site, allowing us to enhance user experience and site functionality. We use standard analytics tools for this purpose.
  • No Direct Personal Identifiable Information (PII): Our core service, the resistor color code calculator, does not require you to provide any personal identifiable information (like your name, email, or physical address) to use it. We do not knowingly collect PII from general website visitors.
  • Contact Form (Optional): If you choose to use our contact form or send us an email directly, you will voluntarily provide your name and email address. This information is used solely to respond to your inquiry and is not stored for marketing purposes or shared with third parties.

How We Use Your Information

The information we collect is used to:

  • Provide and maintain our website and its functionalities, including the resistor color code calculator.
  • Improve our website's content, features, and overall user experience based on aggregated usage patterns.
  • Respond to your inquiries, feedback, and support requests.
  • Monitor and analyze trends, usage, and activities in connection with our services.
  • Ensure the security and integrity of our website.

Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your non-personal or voluntarily provided personal information to outside parties except in the following limited circumstances:

  • Service Providers: We may share anonymized, aggregated data with trusted third-party service providers who assist us in operating our website, conducting our business, or serving our users, so long as those parties agree to keep this information confidential.
  • Legal Requirements: We may disclose your information when we believe release is appropriate to comply with the law, enforce our site policies, or protect ours or others' rights, property, or safety.
  • Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your information may be transferred as part of the transaction.

Data Security

We implement a variety of security measures to maintain the safety of your information when you access our website. We use industry-standard practices to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction of your information.
