Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-05-03

1. About This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Freelance Contract Milestone Tracker ("the Site," "we," "us") collects, uses, and shares information when you visit freelance-contract-milestone-tracker.hub2.day. We built this tool to help independent contractors and freelancers manage project phases and generate printable milestone trackers. Your privacy matters, and we describe our practices transparently below.

2. Information You Provide Directly

You can use the milestone checklist tool without creating an account or providing personal data. The project phases, milestone names, payment amounts, and due dates you enter stay inside your browser and are not transmitted to our servers. If you choose to contact us at [email protected], we receive your email address and any information you include in your message. We use that information solely to respond to your inquiry and do not add you to marketing lists.

3. Information Collected Automatically

When you visit the Site, our hosting infrastructure may automatically collect standard server logs, including your IP address, browser type, referring pages, and timestamps. These logs are used for security monitoring, troubleshooting, and aggregated traffic analysis. We do not combine server logs with tool inputs or contact information.

4. Cookies and Local Storage

The Site uses local storage to remember your milestone entries and preferences on your device. This data never leaves your browser and is not accessible to us. We do not use our own tracking cookies. However, third-party services described below may set cookies.

5. Advertising and Google AdSense

We display advertisements through Google AdSense, which uses cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this Site and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your browsing activity. You can learn more about how Google uses data and how to control ad personalization at https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads. Google AdSense is configured in auto-ads mode, which may place additional cookies or use device identifiers.

6. GDPR, EEA, and UK Privacy Rights

If you are located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you have certain rights under applicable data protection laws. We process personal data on the legal basis of legitimate interest (server logs for security) and consent (advertising cookies). You may:

• Request access to personal data we hold about you.
• Ask us to correct or delete your personal data.
• Object to or restrict processing of your personal data.
• Withdraw consent for cookie-based advertising at any time via your browser settings or Google's ad settings.

To exercise these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We will respond within the timeframes required by law.

7. CCPA / CPRA Privacy Rights

If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect, disclose, or sell. We do not sell personal information. You may request:

• The categories and specific pieces of personal information we have collected about you.
• Deletion of your personal information, subject to legal exceptions.
• To opt out of the "sharing" of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising, which you can manage through your browser or device settings and Google's ad controls.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights. Contact [email protected] with your request.

8. Service Providers

We use third-party service providers for website hosting, email delivery, and advertising (Google AdSense). These providers may process limited personal data on our behalf and are contractually obligated to protect it. We do not authorize them to use your data for their own purposes.

9. Data Retention

Server logs are retained for up to 30 days for security and operational purposes. Email correspondence is retained for as long as needed to resolve your inquiry and for our internal record-keeping, unless you request deletion. Milestone data you enter in the browser is stored only on your device and is not retained by us.

10. Children's Privacy

The Site is not directed to individuals under the age of 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us so we can delete it.

11. Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we process. However, no internet transmission is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the security of data sent to or from the Site.

12. Third-Party Links

The Site may contain links to external websites or resources. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies.

13. International Data Transfers

Our hosting and service providers may process data in countries outside your own. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses or adequacy decisions. By using the Site, you consent to such transfers.

14. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect any changes. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
