4. Third-Party Services

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics to analyze usage of our Service. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit the site, what pages they visit, and what other sites they used prior to coming to our site. We use this information solely to improve our Service.

Google Analytics uses cookies to collect this information. You can opt-out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.

Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our Service. Google AdSense uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website or other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.

YouTube API

Our Service uses the YouTube IFrame Player API to embed and control YouTube videos. When you use our Service to play YouTube videos, you are also subject to YouTube's Terms of Service and Google's Privacy Policy.

Amazon Web Services (AWS)

We use AWS to host our Service. AWS may collect technical information about your connection to ensure the security and performance of our Service.

5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track activity on our Service. Cookies are files with a small amount of data that are sent to your browser from a website and stored on your device.

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our Service.

6. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your information. However, please note that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure.

Since most user data (loop configurations, preferences) is stored locally in your browser, you maintain control over this data. You can clear this data at any time by clearing your browser's localStorage.

Data stored locally in your browser persists until you clear your browser data or until you manually delete it through our Service.
