Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 2026

HowToRequest (“we”, “us”) operates this website. This policy explains what we collect, why we collect it, and your choices. We aim to meet expectations for programmes such as Google AdSense and Google Discover distribution.

Information we collect

  • Newsletter — If you subscribe, we store your email address in Google Firebase Firestore to send updates you requested.
  • Analytics — We may use Firebase Analytics / Google Analytics to understand aggregate traffic (pages viewed, device type, region). We do not use this to sell personal profiles.
  • Authentication — If you sign in as an administrator, Firebase Authentication processes credentials according to Google’s policies.

Cookies and similar technologies

We and our partners may use cookies or local storage for essential site operation, analytics, and — if enabled — personalised advertising through Google services. You can control ad personalisation in your Google account and browser settings.

Advertising

Third-party advertisers (including Google) may serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits. You can opt out of personalised advertising from Google at google.com/settings/ads.

Data retention

Newsletter emails are kept until you unsubscribe or request deletion. Analytics data is retained according to Firebase / Google product defaults unless shortened by configuration.

Your rights

Depending on your region, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data. To request removal from our newsletter list, contact us using the details on the Contact page.

Children

This site is directed at a general audience and is not aimed at children under 13.
