Privacy Policy

Effective Date: November 3, 2026

1. Information We Collect

Retro Handheld DB does not require user accounts or registration. We collect minimal technical telemetry necessary to deliver fast server-side responses, including IP address, browser user-agent, referring URL, and basic device viewport metrics for responsive rendering.

2. Cookies and Web Storage

We use lightweight browser localStorage to remember user interface preferences, such as your selected view mode (Cards vs DataGrid Table) and hidden column configurations. These settings never leave your browser and are not shared with any third party.

3. Affiliate Links and Partner Tracking

Our website contains affiliate links to third-party merchants (including Amazon, AliExpress, Geekbuying, and manufacturer official stores). When you click an affiliate link or copy a coupon code, the destination retailer may place a standard commercial tracking cookie on your device to attribute referral purchases. Please review the privacy policies of those respective merchants for their tracking terms.

4. Google AdSense & Advertising Cookies

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our sites and/or other sites on the Internet. Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.

5. Data Retention & Contact

We do not sell, rent, or lease personal data to any third party. If you have questions regarding this policy or data practices, contact us at:
