- Referring URLs and pages visited
- Date and time of access
This information is used solely for security, maintenance, analytics, and improvement of the Site.
5. Cookies and Similar Technologies
The Site may use cookies or similar technologies to improve functionality, analyze usage patterns, and support advertising.
Cookies are small files stored on your device by your browser. You may disable cookies through your browser settings; however, some features of the Site may not function properly if cookies are disabled.
6. Google AdSense and Advertising Cookies
This Site uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google AdSense and its partners may use advertising cookies to serve ads based on a user’s visits to this Site and other websites on the Internet.
Google uses these cookies to enable it and its partners to serve ads tailored to your interests.
Because Google may place cookies on your browser when you view or click on ads, you should inform users that third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on their visits to the Site and other sites.

7. Analytics
The Site may use analytics services (such as Google Analytics or similar tools) to understand how the Site is accessed and used.
These services may collect usage data via cookies or similar technologies. The Excel-NEXT Administrator does not attempt to personally identify users through analytics data.
8. Downloaded Files
Files and templates provided on the Site do not require personal information to download.
You are solely responsible for reviewing, testing, and verifying any downloaded files before use, including checking security, compatibility, and suitability for your intended purpose.
9. Sharing of Information
The Excel-NEXT Administrator does not sell personal information.
Automatically collected information may be shared only in limited circumstances, such as:

- When required by law, regulation, or legal process
- To protect the Site, users, or the Excel-NEXT Administrator from security threats or misuse
10. Data Retention

12. Your Rights (Informational Notice)
Depending on your location, you may have certain rights under applicable data protection laws (such as GDPR or similar regulations), including the right to request access to or deletion of personal information.
Because the Site does not intentionally collect or maintain personal information, the Excel-NEXT Administrator may be unable to identify, access, or delete specific user data upon request.
Any requests will be evaluated at the discretion of the Excel-NEXT Administrator and handled only to the extent technically feasible and legally required.
13. Security
Reasonable measures are taken to protect the Site and its operation. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and absolute security cannot be guaranteed.
