Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 2026

This Privacy Policy explains what information this site collects, how we use it, and what choices you have. This site is an independent guide about the SettleMate app. It is not affiliated with Settlemate Inc. or the SettleMate app itself. This policy only covers this website, not the SettleMate app.

What information do we collect?

We collect a small amount of information to run this site and understand how people use it. This falls into three categories.

Technical data. Like most websites, we automatically collect basic technical data when you visit. This includes your browser type, device type, approximate location based on IP address, and which pages you viewed. This data is collected through standard analytics tools.

Information you submit. If you contact us through email or a contact form, we collect whatever information you include, such as your name, email address, and message. We only use this to respond to you.

Cookie data. This site may use cookies, which are small text files stored on your device. Cookies help the site remember basic settings and help us measure general traffic patterns.

We do not collect sensitive personal information. We never ask for financial account numbers, passwords, or government ID numbers through this site.

How do we use this information?

We use the information we collect for a few clear purposes:

• To operate, maintain, and improve this website
• To respond to questions sent through our contact page or by email
• To understand which articles and topics readers find useful
• To detect and prevent spam or abuse of our contact form

We do not sell personal information to third parties, and we do not use your information for purposes beyond what is described in this policy.

Does this site use cookies?

Yes, this site may use cookies for basic functionality and analytics. You can control or disable cookies through your browser's settings at any time. If you disable cookies, some parts of this site may not work exactly as designed, though the core content will still be readable.

Does this site use third-party services?

This site may use third-party analytics tools to measure traffic and understand reader behavior. These tools operate under their own privacy policies, separate from this one. This site also links out to official third-party stores, including the Apple App Store and Google Play, so you can download the SettleMate app. Once you click one of those links and leave our site, that company's own privacy policy applies, not ours.

How long do we keep your information?

We keep contact form or email submissions only as long as needed to respond to your question, unless you ask us to delete it sooner. Aggregated, non-identifying analytics data may be kept longer to help us understand long-term site trends.

Children's privacy

This site is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted personal information to us, please contact us so we can remove it.

What are your privacy choices?

You have a few simple choices when it comes to your privacy on this site:

• You can disable cookies through your browser settings
• You can ask us to review, correct, or delete personal information you have submitted
• You can choose not to submit any personal information at all, since browsing this site does not require it
