This Privacy Policy explains what information MusicBear (musicbear.net) collects when you visit the site, how it is used and the choices you have. We keep data collection to the minimum needed to run the site.

Information we collect

Information you send us. If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you choose to include in your message. We use it only to reply to you and do not add you to any mailing list.

Technical information. Like every website, our hosting and security provider (Cloudflare) processes basic technical data when you load a page, such as your IP address, browser type and the pages requested. This is used to deliver the site, keep it secure and protect it from abuse.

We do not require registration, we do not run user accounts and we do not sell personal information.

Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored by your browser. MusicBear itself does not need cookies to work. Third-party services described below may set their own cookies.

Advertising

We may display advertising served by Google and other advertising partners to cover the costs of running the site. These third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on your previous visits to this website or to other websites.

Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this and other sites on the Internet. You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info.

For more information about how Google uses data, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.

Embedded content

Some articles include embedded videos or players from other websites (for example YouTube). Embedded content behaves as if you visited the other website directly, and that website may collect data about you under its own privacy policy.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in the EU/UK or the CCPA in California), you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal information we hold about you, or to object to its processing. Since we hold very little, the simplest way is to email us and we will answer within 30 days.

Children

MusicBear is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

Changes to this policy

If we change this policy, we will update the date at the top of this page.
