Privacy Policy

Effective Date: March 8, 2026

Welcome to PixelForest.org. Your privacy matters to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how it is used, and how we protect it.

1. Information We Collect

PixelForest is designed to collect as little personal information as possible.

When you use the site, we may collect:

Messages you choose to plant
When you plant a tree, you may submit a message, wish, memory, or note. This content may be publicly visible if you choose to publish it.

Location coordinates for trees
When a tree is planted, the system generates coordinates that allow you and others to revisit the tree.

Basic technical information
Like most websites, our hosting provider may automatically collect limited technical data such as:

  • IP address
  • Browser type
  • Device type
  • Pages visited
  • Date and time of visits

This information is used only for maintaining the site and ensuring security.

2. What We Do With Your Information

We use information only to operate and improve the website.

This includes:

  • Displaying planted trees and their messages
  • Allowing users to revisit trees via coordinates
  • Preventing abuse or spam
  • Improving site stability and performance

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties.

3. Public Content

Messages planted in PixelForest may be visible to other visitors.

Please avoid including sensitive personal information such as:

  • Home addresses
  • Phone numbers
  • Financial information
  • Private identifiers

Once a message is publicly displayed, it may be visible to others who browse the forest.

4. Content Moderation

To maintain a positive and respectful environment, we may use automated filters or moderation tools to block inappropriate or harmful content.

Messages that violate community standards may be removed.

5. Cookies and Tracking

PixelForest currently does not use tracking cookies for advertising.

Basic cookies may be used only when necessary for:

  • Site functionality
  • Performance optimization
  • Security protection

If analytics tools are added in the future, this policy will be updated.

6. Data Security

We take reasonable steps to protect the information stored on the site, including measures to prevent common web attacks and unauthorized access.

However, no website can guarantee absolute security.

7. Children’s Privacy

PixelForest is intended for general audiences.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has submitted personal information, please contact us and we will remove it.

8. Changes to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated as the site evolves. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
