At DeGoog.us, we practice what we preach. This privacy policy explains how we handle your information when you visit our website.
Our Privacy Philosophy
We believe privacy is a fundamental right, not a luxury. We’ve designed this website to collect as little data as possible while still providing a useful experience.

We do not use Google Analytics or any other third-party tracking services that build advertising profiles.

Affiliate Links
When you click on affiliate links to Proton services, you will be redirected to Proton’s website. At that point, Proton’s privacy policy applies. We recommend reviewing their privacy policy at proton.me/legal/privacy.
Our affiliate links may contain tracking parameters that help Proton attribute referrals to our website. This tracking is handled by Proton, not by us.
