Privacy Policy
At Tusrd, accessible from tusrd.com, the privacy of our visitors is one of our main priorities. We are dedicated to helping you discover your ideal software match by providing hands-on reviews, up-to-date tech news, and comprehensive guides across iOS, Android, Windows, Mac, and Linux. Because Tusrd is an informational and review platform that does not host downloadable software files, we focus heavily on delivering a safe, transparent, and secure browsing environment. This Privacy Policy document outlines the types of information we collect and record, and how we use it.
This policy is effective as of July 5, 2026. If you have additional questions or require more information about our Privacy Policy, do not hesitate to contact us.
Information We Collect
Tusrd collects information in two primary ways: information you provide voluntarily and information collected automatically through your interaction with our website.
Personal Information Voluntarily Provided
We may collect personal information that you voluntarily share with us, such as your name and email address, when you subscribe to our newsletter, submit a comment on an app review, fill out a contact form, or communicate with us directly. We will only use this information to fulfill your specific request or to improve your experience on our platform.
Automatically Collected Log Data
Like most standard websites, Tusrd follows a standard procedure of using log files. These files log visitors when they visit websites. The information collected by log files includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamp, referring/exit pages, and possibly the number of clicks. This data is not linked to any information that is personally identifiable. The purpose of this information is for analyzing trends, administering the site, tracking users' movement on the website, and gathering demographic information.
Cookies and Web Beacons
Tusrd uses "cookies" to enhance your browsing experience. Cookies are small data files stored on your device that help us remember your preferences, optimize page load times, and customize our web page content based on your browser type or other information you send via your browser. You can choose to disable cookies through your individual browser options; however, doing so may affect your ability to interact with certain features on our site.
Google AdSense & the DoubleClick DART Cookie
Google is one of the third-party vendors we partner with on Tusrd to support our free review and news services. Google uses cookies, known as DART cookies, to serve ads to our site visitors based upon their visit to tusrd.com and other sites on the internet.
Please note that you can choose to decline the use of the DART cookie and manage your personalized advertising preferences by visiting the Google Ads Settings page at the following URL: https://www.google.com/settings/ads.
Third-Party Ad Networks
Other third-party ad servers or ad networks may also use cookies, JavaScript, or Web Beacons in their respective advertisements and links that appear on Tusrd. These technologies automatically measure the effectiveness of their advertising campaigns and personalize the advertising content you see on websites you visit.
Tusrd has no access to or control over these cookies used by third-party advertisers. You can opt out of several third-party ad servers' use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page or the Digital Advertising Alliance choice page at http://www.aboutads.info/choices/.

Data Security
The security of your data is highly important to us. Tusrd employs standard commercial security measures to protect the personal information submitted to us, both during transmission and once we receive it. However, please remember that no method of transmission over the Internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
Your Rights Under GDPR and CCPA
Depending on your location, you may have specific data protection rights regarding your personal information:
Under the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation): European Union residents have the right to access, correct, update, or request the deletion of their personal data. You also have the right to object to processing, restrict processing, or request data portability. If you wish to exercise any of these rights, please contact us.

Children's Privacy
Another priority of ours is adding protection for children while using the internet. Tusrd does not knowingly collect any Personal Identifiable Information from children under the age of 13. If you think that your child provided this kind of information on our website, we strongly encourage you to contact us immediately, and we will do our best efforts to promptly remove such information from our records.
