DarasaTools East Africa ("we," "our," or "us") operates this website (the "Site") to provide free educational tools and content to users across Tanzania, Kenya, Uganda, and beyond. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit our Site.
1. Information We Collect
- Non-Personal Information: Like most websites, we automatically collect general information such as browser type, device type, approximate location (country/region), pages visited, and time spent on the Site, through standard analytics tools.
- Cookies: Our Site uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to improve functionality, remember preferences, and support advertising services.
- Voluntarily Provided Information: If you contact us via email or a contact form, we collect the information you choose to share, such as your name and email address, solely to respond to your inquiry.
We do not require account registration to use our calculators or read our content, and we do not knowingly collect sensitive personal data.
2. Google AdSense and Third-Party Advertising
This Site displays advertisements served by Google AdSense and its partner networks. These third-party vendors use cookies to serve ads based on a visitor's prior visits to this Site or other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to our visitors based on their visit to our Site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings (adssettings.google.com).
- Third-party vendors, including Google, may also use cookies to serve ads based on a user's past visits to this website or other websites.
- You can learn more about how Google uses information from sites that use its services by visiting Google's Privacy & Terms page.

We use collected information to:
- Operate, maintain, and improve our tools and content
- Understand how visitors use our Site so we can enhance user experience
- Display relevant advertising to support our free services
- Respond to inquiries submitted through our Contact Us page
4. Data Sharing
We do not sell or rent personal information to third parties. We may share non-personal, aggregated data with analytics and advertising partners (such as Google) strictly for the purposes described above.
5. Children's Privacy
While many of our tools are used by secondary school students, our Site is not directed at children under 13 without parental or guardian involvement, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from young children. Parents and guardians who believe their child has provided personal information to us should contact us so we can address it promptly.
6. Third-Party Links
Our Site may contain links to external websites (such as official examination board portals). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these third-party sites.
7. Your Choices
You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings at any time, though this may affect certain Site functionality. You may also manage ad personalization preferences directly through Google's Ads Settings.
