Your Right to Opt Out

NetworkCheckr respects your privacy and your right to control how your personal information is used. Several US state privacy laws give residents the right to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of their personal information. Even where the legal definition of “sale” is broad and may include activities like targeted advertising, we want to make your choices clear and easy to exercise.

This page applies to residents of states with applicable consumer privacy laws, including but not limited to:

  • California — California Consumer Privacy Act / California Privacy Rights Act (CCPA/CPRA)
  • Virginia — Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA)
  • Colorado — Colorado Privacy Act (CPA)
  • Connecticut — Connecticut Data Privacy Act (CTDPA)
  • Utah — Utah Consumer Privacy Act (UCPA)
  • Texas — Texas Data Privacy and Security Act (TDPSA)
  • Oregon — Oregon Consumer Privacy Act (OCPA)
  • Montana — Montana Consumer Data Privacy Act (MCDPA)

What Information We Collect

NetworkCheckr is a free networking tools and educational guides website. We do not require account creation, and we do not collect names, email addresses, or other directly identifying information through normal site use. Information that may be collected includes:

  • Usage data: Pages visited, time on site, referring URLs, and similar analytics data.
  • Device and browser information: Browser type, operating system, screen resolution, and language preferences.
  • IP address: Collected automatically by our web server and analytics services.
  • Cookies and similar technologies: Used by our analytics and advertising partners. See our Cookie Policy for details.

How Information May Be Shared

We may use third-party advertising networks and analytics services that collect information about your browsing activity across websites. Under some state privacy laws, this type of activity may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of personal information, even when no money changes hands. These third parties may include:

  • Google (Analytics, AdSense, or similar advertising services)
  • Other advertising networks or demand partners we may use in the future

How to Opt Out

You have several ways to opt out of the sale or sharing of your personal information:

1. Cookie consent preferences

When you first visit NetworkCheckr, you may be presented with a cookie consent banner. You can decline non-essential cookies, which will prevent most third-party tracking and advertising cookies from being set.

2. Browser-level controls

Most modern browsers support a Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal. When enabled, we treat this signal as a valid opt-out request under applicable state laws. You can enable GPC in browsers like Firefox, Brave, and DuckDuckGo, or through browser extensions.

3. Contact us directly

You can submit an opt-out request by contacting us using the information below. We will process your request within the timeframe required by your state’s applicable law (typically 15 to 45 days).

Your Additional Rights

Depending on where you live, you may also have the right to:

  • Know what personal information we collect and how it is used.
  • Delete personal information we have collected from you.
  • Correct inaccurate personal information.
  • Non-discrimination — we will not treat you differently for exercising your privacy rights.

For more information about the data we collect and how we use it, please review our Privacy Policy.
