Information you provide
The current site does not ask you to create an account, provide your name, or submit an email address to use the tool matcher.
Your matcher answers are used in your browser to calculate a recommendation. Creator Tool Advisor does not store the individual answers you select in its affiliate tracking database.
Analytics and usage information
Creator Tool Advisor uses Google Analytics 4 on the live creatortooladvisor.com domain to understand how visitors use the site. This can include information about pages viewed, interactions with the matcher, recommendation events, outbound affiliate-link clicks, browser and device information, and general traffic-source information.
Google Analytics may use first-party cookies and similar technologies to distinguish users and sessions. Information processed by Google is also subject to Google's own privacy terms and policies.
Campaign parameters
When present in the URL, the site may read campaign parameters such as
utm_source, utm_medium,
utm_campaign, utm_term,
utm_content, and gclid.
The current site stores these values in browser session storage so they can be associated with analytics events during the same browsing session. They are used to understand how traffic sources and campaigns perform.
Affiliate click and conversion tracking
When you click a product link, Creator Tool Advisor may create a random
click identifier and store a limited affiliate-click record. This can
include the tool clicked, the tool recommended by the matcher, the
position of the link, campaign parameters such as UTM values or
gclid, the page path, and the time of the click.
For supported affiliate partners, the random click identifier may be passed to the partner so that a later purchase can be attributed back to the originating click. For TubeMagic purchases processed through Digistore24, Digistore24 may send Creator Tool Advisor the click identifier together with transaction metadata such as commission amount, currency, product, transaction type, payment status, billing type, order type, campaign key, and transaction time.
This tracking is used to measure whether advertising and recommendations are economically effective. The Digistore24 postback used by Creator Tool Advisor is not configured to request a purchaser's name, email address, postal address, or payment details.
Affiliate and third-party links
Creator Tool Advisor contains links to third-party websites, including affiliate links. When you leave this site, the destination website may collect information under its own privacy policy and use its own cookies or tracking technologies.
Creator Tool Advisor does not control the privacy practices of those third-party websites.
How information is used
Analytics information is used to understand site usage, measure matcher completion, evaluate recommendation and outbound-click performance, diagnose problems, and improve the usefulness of the site.
Creator Tool Advisor does not build a custom user-profile database. It does store the limited affiliate click and conversion records described above so that traffic costs, recommendations, clicks, and resulting commissions can be measured. Creator Tool Advisor does not sell user-submitted personal information.
Your choices
You can use browser controls to manage or delete cookies and site storage. Google also provides a Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on for users who do not want their site activity made available to Google Analytics.
Depending on where visitors are located and how the site's advertising and analytics setup evolves, additional consent or privacy controls may be added before or after public launch.
Changes to this notice
This privacy notice may be updated as Creator Tool Advisor adds new features, analytics tools, advertising systems, forms, accounts, or other data-processing activities. The date at the top of this page will be updated when material changes are made.
