5) Legal Bases for Processing (EEA/UK Users)
Where the GDPR/UK GDPR applies, we process Personal Data based on: consent (e.g., non-essential cookies, newsletters), legitimate interests (e.g., security, analytics, minimal ads measurement), contract (providing requested features), and legal obligation (record-keeping). You can withdraw consent at any time via cookie settings (where available) or by contacting us (see Section 14).

8) Analytics, Advertising & Affiliate Links
Analytics: We may use analytics services (e.g., Google Analytics) to understand usage and improve the Service; these may set cookies and collect Usage Data.
Advertising (AdSense/Ad Manager): Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s previous visits to this or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads and measure performance based on your visits. You can opt out of personalized advertising in your Google Ads Settings or via industry opt-out pages.

We may share information with Service Providers (hosting, security, email delivery, analytics, advertising, payment/affiliate platforms); during business transfers (merger, acquisition, asset sale); for legal compliance/protection; and with your consent or at your direction.
We do not sell Personal Data for money. Some U.S. state laws treat cross-context behavioral advertising as a “sale” or “sharing” of Personal Data—see Section 11 for opt-out rights.
