Privacy policy

This policy explains what information workshop-manuals.com (“the Site”) collects, how it is used, and the choices you have. The Site can be used anonymously: there are no accounts and we do not ask for your name or email address.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, our server records standard request information such as your IP address, browser type, the page requested and the referring page. We use these logs to keep the Site running, to fix problems and to understand which manuals are used. We do not sell them.

Cookies and browser storage

The Site itself sets no tracking cookies. It stores two small values in your browser’s local storage to decide when to show the donation message (a page-view count and, if you shared or donated, the date to stop asking). Advertising and affiliate partners described below may set their own cookies. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; the manuals still work without them.

Advertising (Google AdSense)

Ads on the Site are served by Google AdSense. Google and its partners use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites, and to measure ad performance. You can turn off personalised advertising in Google’s Ad Settings, and read how Google uses information from sites that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. Visitors in the UK and EEA are asked for consent before personalised ads are shown, and can change their choice at any time through the privacy settings link shown with the ads.

Amazon Associates

workshop-manuals.com is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program and the Amazon EU Associates Programme, affiliate advertising programmes designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.

Links marked “Amazon” open Amazon search results. If you follow one, Amazon may set cookies to record that you came from this Site; this does not change the price you pay. Amazon’s own privacy notice applies on Amazon’s websites.

Donations

Donations are handled by PayPal and Ko-fi on their own websites. We receive the information those services pass on to recipients (such as your name and the amount); we use it only to keep records of donations and never share it.

Third-party websites

Links to other websites, including Amazon, PayPal and Ko-fi, are governed by those websites’ own privacy policies.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The latest version is always on this page.
