Last updated: October 21, 2026
1. Who we are
DevSmith (devsmithtools.com) publishes articles, guides and reviews about software and AI tools. Questions about this policy can be sent to support@devsmithtools.com.
2. Information we collect
We do not ask you to create an account. We collect usage information automatically when you visit, such as pages viewed, approximate location (country/city), device and browser type, referring site and time spent on pages.
If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you include in the message.
3. Analytics
We use Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity and Ahrefs Web Analytics to understand how visitors use the site. These services set cookies or similar identifiers and process data under their own privacy policies.
4. Advertising
We show ads from third-party advertising networks, including Adsterra and, in the future, Google AdSense. These networks and their partners may use cookies, web beacons and similar technologies to show ads based on your visits to this and other websites, to limit how often you see an ad, and to measure ad performance.
Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites. You can opt out of personalised advertising from Google at adssettings.google.com, and from many other vendors at www.aboutads.info/choices or www.youronlinechoices.eu.
5. Affiliate links
Some links on DevSmith are affiliate links. If you buy a product through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. The retailer may set a cookie to record the referral.
6. Your choices and rights
You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR or CCPA), you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal data about you, or to object to its processing. Email us to make a request.
7. Children
This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.
8. Changes
