Privacy Policy

Updated on December 2, 2025.

Introduction and Overview

Carbbi is operated by IndieTech OÜ, a private limited company officially registered in the Republic of Estonia (Registry Code: 14805865), with headquarters located at Keemia tn 4, 10616, Harju, Estonia. Under applicable data protection laws, IndieTech OÜ acts as the “Data Controller” responsible for your personal information.

We operate as an independent informational platform dedicated to helping you understand how mobile apps and mobile games function in real situations. At https://carbbi.com, you’ll find guides, practical explanations, and accessible walkthroughs entirely focused on mobile utilities, productivity apps, entertainment features, game mechanics, and other digital experiences. Each piece of content is designed to help you explore important features, compare tools, and make better use of the apps you already have — or the ones you’re thinking of trying.

Our goal is to present app and game information in a way that feels approachable, useful, and easy to absorb. Whether you’re optimizing your day, experimenting with new digital tools, or simply curious about what an app does behind the scenes, Carbbi is here to support your search. We provide clear context on features, permissions, behavior, and real-world performance so you can make decisions that match your needs without feeling overwhelmed by technical noise.

We’re not connected to app developers, tech companies, financial institutions, or game studios. Nothing we write is promotional, paid, or influenced by external partners. Every article is researched and written independently using official documentation, publicly available data, and direct app testing. All original content published on Carbbi is fully owned by IndieTech OÜ.

Your Privacy Matters

Your trust guides how we operate. That’s why we explain exactly what personal data we collect, how we use it, and why it’s needed. This Privacy Policy outlines our practices so you understand how your information is handled while browsing Carbbi.

We follow recognized data protection standards and prioritize transparency. Our approach is built around giving you visibility into how information is collected, processed, or stored when you interact with our articles, guides, or navigation features.

We encourage you to read this policy carefully. If you ever have questions or want more detail about how your information is used, you can contact us at https://carbbi.com/contact

Scope of the Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to all your interactions with https://carbbi.com. It covers every part of your experience on our platform — including moments where you read app guides, follow tutorials, browse game insights, compare digital tools, or explore any form of content we provide.

Whether you’re improving your productivity setup, learning about mobile game systems, or deciding which apps best match your routine, this policy explains how data is managed throughout your visit.

Please note that this policy applies only to Carbbi. When you click links that lead to external platforms — such as official app stores, developer websites, or reference sources mentioned in our articles — those websites operate under their own privacy rules. Before entering personal information anywhere outside Carbbi, we strongly recommend reviewing the privacy practices of those third-party platforms.

Consent

By using Carbbi, reading our content, or interacting with any feature on our site, you acknowledge that you’ve read and accepted the principles outlined in this Privacy Policy.

Your continued navigation of the site — from browsing articles to loading pages — counts as agreement with how we collect and use data as described here. If you do not agree with any of our practices, we recommend discontinuing use of the platform.

We also encourage you to review our Terms of Use to understand your rights, your responsibilities, and the conditions under which Carbbi operates.

AI-Generated Content

To improve clarity and maintain consistency across topics, Carbbi occasionally uses AI-assisted tools during the editorial process. These tools help us refine structure, improve readability, and streamline explanations — especially when addressing complex subjects such as app permissions, algorithm behavior, or game system mechanics.

However, AI tools never replace human oversight. Every article on Carbbi is written, reviewed, and finalized by a human editor. Our team ensures that all information remains accurate, practical, and aligned with what real users want to understand.

We do not use AI to generate full articles, make editorial decisions, select topics, or draw conclusions. All insights come from our writers and researchers, based on official documentation, direct app testing, and user-focused experience.

If you’d like to know more about how we integrate AI responsibly within our workflow, you can reach us anytime through our Contact Page. At Carbbi, technology is used to support clarity — never at the expense of accuracy, trust, or your reading experience.

I. Data Collection Practices

At Carbbi, we take a responsible and transparent approach to handling data. We collect certain information to improve platform performance, protect user access, and offer relevant features. This data comes from three main sources: information you share with us, data automatically gathered from your device, and limited input from trusted third-party services.

A. INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE

You can access most areas of Carbbi without sharing personal details. However, certain features — like subscriptions, notifications, or interactive tools — may ask you to submit basic information.

When using these features, you might be asked for your name, email, phone number, or general location. This information helps us verify your access, deliver requested updates, or personalize parts of your experience.

If you contact us through our support form, take part in surveys, or provide feedback, we use that information solely to respond or improve the platform. Your input helps us tailor content and ensure smooth support.

B. AUTOMATICALLY COLLECTED INFORMATION

When you browse Carbbi, we automatically collect technical data that helps us maintain and improve the site. This includes your IP address, browser type, device info, time and date of access, and how you navigate our pages.

This data is gathered through tools like cookies, log files, and web analytics. It allows us to track site performance, troubleshoot errors, and understand user behavior — such as which articles are read most or how long users stay on certain pages.

We use cookies and web beacons to remember your preferences and optimize your experience. For example, these tools may help us display content similar to what you’ve recently viewed or track performance across different browsers.

You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings at any time. Please note that doing so may affect how some features work. By continuing to use our site without changing these settings, you consent to our use of cookies as described.

C. INFORMATION FROM THIRD PARTIES

We may partner with external advertising and analytics providers to support our content and platform operations. These third parties may use tracking tools (such as cookies or pixels) within our pages to collect anonymized data like your browser type, visit time, general location, or ad interactions.

This helps us measure engagement and display ads that are broadly relevant to users. While these technologies run within our site, the data they collect is managed under the privacy terms of each individual provider.

We do not share your personal information directly with advertisers, nor do we control how they handle data after collection. Clicking on an ad does not create a relationship between you and any external party.

Some partners, like Google, may use cookies to show interest-based ads. If you prefer to opt out of these, you can update your ad preferences through your Google account or review their official privacy policies for more information.

To better understand how your data may be used by third-party tools linked within our site, we recommend reviewing each provider’s privacy policy. This Privacy Policy applies only to data collected through Carbbi and does not extend to external services.

II. SMS Notifications and User Consent

A. CONSENT AUTHORIZATION

Carbbi is committed to responsible and transparent communication in accordance with applicable laws, including the GDPR (EU) and the U.S. Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA).

If you voluntarily provide your phone number through a form, quiz, or interactive feature on our website, you may be offered the option to receive SMS updates from Carbbi. Any such invitation will include clear language and a checkbox or similar method for confirming your consent. We will always explain what types of messages you may receive before you agree to sign up.

By choosing to opt in, you authorize Carbbi to send occasional SMS messages to the number provided. These may include platform-related updates, relevant service alerts, or promotional content related to our editorial offerings. Participation is entirely optional. You are not required to provide your phone number or consent to receive SMS communications in order to access or use any part of our website.

B. OPTING OUT OF SMS MESSAGES

You may opt out of SMS messages at any time. To unsubscribe, simply reply to any message with the word “STOP.” Once received, we will promptly remove your number from our messaging list.

If you would prefer to update your communication preferences through another method, you may contact us directly at https://carbbi.com/contact. Our team will respond to your request as quickly as possible and ensure your preferences are updated accordingly.

Carbbi is committed to honoring your communication choices. We strive to ensure that all interactions are respectful, permission-based, and aligned with relevant privacy and consumer protection standards. Your consent, and the ability to withdraw it at any time, will always remain a priority.

III. Purpose and Use of Collected Information

Carbbi collects user data with a clear purpose: to create a secure, functional, and relevant experience for every visitor. Each type of information we gather serves a specific role in improving our platform, enhancing usability, and maintaining a safe environment, all while respecting your privacy.

3.1 Maintaining Technical Performance

We use technical data to ensure the platform runs smoothly across all devices. Information like browser type, screen size, or load time helps us detect errors, fix bugs, and improve overall functionality. This allows us to deliver a faster, more reliable site experience.

3.2 Personalizing User Experience

User activity helps us shape your experience in meaningful ways. By understanding how visitors interact with content, we can adjust layouts, suggest useful resources, and organize tools in ways that feel familiar and helpful.

3.3 Understanding Engagement and Behavior

Metrics such as time spent on a page, click patterns, or content popularity guide our improvements. This information shows us what’s working, where users are dropping off, and how we can present information more clearly.

3.4 Improving Features and Services

User feedback and site data help us refine existing tools and introduce new ones. Whether through updated layouts, search filters, or entirely new features, improvements are always based on real interactions and evolving needs.

3.5 Responding to Inquiries and Feedback

When you contact us, the details you share allow us to respond effectively. This includes solving technical issues, addressing account concerns, or simply acknowledging a suggestion. We may also follow up to ensure everything has been resolved.

3.6 Sending Platform Updates and Emails

If you subscribe to our mailing list, we may send updates, highlights, or announcements that relate to your preferences. Every message includes an option to unsubscribe or manage communication settings at any time.

3.7 Enhancing Security and Preventing Misuse

Collected data helps us detect suspicious behavior, prevent unauthorized access, and respond to potential threats. We use monitoring systems and behavior tracking to maintain a secure space for all users.

Our use of data is guided by principles of fairness, privacy, and responsibility. We continuously review our practices to keep up with technology and uphold the trust of everyone who visits our platform.

Cookies on Carbbi fall into several categories:

Essential cookies support basic site operations. They ensure pages load properly, allow secure logins, and keep platform features working as expected. Without them, core functions may not be available.

Preference cookies remember user settings like language or layout. They help tailor the interface and streamline repeat visits.

Managing or Disabling Cookies

Most browsers allow users to review, block, or remove cookies at any time. Disabling essential cookies may limit access to certain site functions, while blocking preference cookies may prevent the site from remembering your settings.

Choosing to limit analytics cookies could reduce the accuracy of our performance improvements. Blocking advertising cookies will not remove ads entirely, but it may result in less relevant suggestions.

These insights help us identify what works well and where improvements are needed. You can learn more about how Google uses these cookies by visiting their official resources.

IV. Commitment to Data Protection

Carbbi places a high priority on protecting user information. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal data under any circumstances. In some cases, we may share anonymized or aggregated data with trusted partners to help improve platform performance, develop new features, or better understand general usage trends. This type of data sharing does not reveal any personal identity.

Users can choose to opt out of this form of anonymous data use at any time. If you would like to manage your preferences or learn more about your options, please reach out through our contact form.

To safeguard personal data, we use a combination of strong security practices. This includes encrypted connections for data transfers, limited internal access based on roles, and monitoring tools designed to detect unusual or unauthorized activity. Our systems are reviewed on a regular basis, and we perform audits to strengthen protection and close any potential vulnerabilities.

While we take every reasonable step to secure our platform, no online system is completely free from risk. If an unauthorized incident ever occurs, Carbbi will act quickly to contain the issue, restore security, and follow all necessary notification steps. If your data is involved, you will be informed promptly along with guidance on how to protect your information.

For us, protecting user privacy goes beyond technical safeguards. It reflects the trust placed in our platform. We remain committed to building and maintaining a safe, respectful, and transparent environment for everyone who visits Carbbi.

V. Implementing Your Privacy Privileges

5.1 Understanding Your Rights

At Carbbi, we believe everyone has the right to know how their personal information is used and to make decisions about it. Whether you browse anonymously or engage more actively with our platform, you are entitled to access, review, or request changes to the information we hold about you.

In certain cases, you may also ask us to limit how your data is used or request its permanent deletion. While we aim to honor all requests, there may be instances where we are required to keep specific records for legal, administrative, or security reasons.

We provide tools and support to help you manage your privacy preferences. Our goal is not only to meet legal expectations but also to give users clear control over how their data is handled.

5.2 Our Data Retention Practices

We keep personal data only for as long as it is needed to fulfill its intended purpose. This includes ensuring site functionality, delivering content, resolving support requests, maintaining security, and improving overall performance.

For example, we may retain your contact details to respond to previous messages or follow up on unresolved issues. Technical data related to performance and safety may be stored temporarily to help detect future problems. Once the information is no longer useful, it is either deleted or anonymized so that it cannot be traced back to you.

If you wish to have your data removed, you can submit a request through our contact page at https://carbbi.com/contact. We will process your request promptly and inform you once the removal is complete or if some information must be retained temporarily for legal or operational reasons.

At Carbbi, we take privacy seriously. Our data handling processes are designed to protect user rights, support transparency, and ensure your information is managed responsibly from start to finish.

VI. GDPR Compliance & Global Privacy Rights

6.1 Governance under GDPR (European Union): Because our operating company is based in Estonia, we process all personal data in accordance with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which is widely considered the gold standard for privacy worldwide.

6.2 Legal Basis for Processing: We process your data based on the following legal grounds:

  • Consent: When you opt-in to newsletters or accept cookies.
  • Legitimate Interest: To ensure site security, prevent fraud, and improve our services (e.g., analytics).
  • Legal Obligation: To comply with Estonian or EU laws.

6.3 International Data Transfers: Please be aware that your personal data may be transferred to, stored, and processed in Estonia (European Union), where our central operations are located. By using our services, you acknowledge that your information constitutes an international transfer. We ensure that such transfers are protected by appropriate safeguards in line with EU standards.

6.4 Global Rights (Brazil/LGPD, Canada, and Others): While this policy is drafted to comply with the GDPR, Carbbi extends these high standards of privacy rights to all users globally.

  • For users in Brazil (LGPD): You have the right to confirmation of the existence of processing, access to data, correction of incomplete data, and revocation of consent. You may exercise these rights through our contact form.
  • For users in other jurisdictions: We honor your right to access, correct, delete, or export your data regardless of your location.

VII. Data Protection in the United States

Carbbi is committed to safeguarding your privacy and adheres to the data protection laws that apply across the United States. Although the country does not follow a single, unified privacy framework, a number of state-specific and federal regulations govern how websites like ours collect, store, and use personal data.

This section outlines the most relevant U.S. privacy laws affecting our operations, detailing your rights and the steps we take to protect your information in compliance with applicable requirements.

California Privacy Laws – CCPA and CPRA

If you reside in California, your personal information is covered under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and the expanded California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), which came into effect in 2023.

These laws affect businesses that gather information through cookies, analytics software, or advertising platforms—even if the data, like IP addresses or user behavior, is collected indirectly.

Your Rights Under CCPA/CPRA:

  • Know which types of personal information we collect and why we collect them
  • Request the deletion of your personal data from our systems
  • Correct inaccuracies in the information stored about you
  • Opt out of the sharing or selling of your personal data, especially in the context of third-party advertising
  • Limit how sensitive personal information is used
  • Request a portable copy of your personal data in an accessible format

To comply with these laws, Carbbi offers a transparent privacy notice, user-friendly cookie management tools, and a dedicated process to help California users exercise these rights. We also honor browser-based privacy requests when legally required and enforce strict internal procedures to ensure secure handling of personal data deletion and access requests.

Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA)

The Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (VCDPA) ensures that residents of Virginia have access to clear information about how their data is collected, used, and stored by websites and online services.

The law applies to any processing or sharing of personal information, including behavioral data collected for analytics or marketing purposes.

Your Rights Under VCDPA:

  • Access your personal data and verify whether it is currently being processed
  • Correct any errors or outdated personal information on file
  • Request the deletion of personal data no longer necessary or desired
  • Opt out of targeted ads, data sales, or algorithmic profiling
  • Obtain a downloadable and portable version of your personal information

At Carbbi, we honor these rights by clearly outlining how user data is used, collecting only what’s necessary, and offering the ability to opt out of behavioral tracking when applicable. Users may submit requests through our official contact page, and we commit to responding within the timeframe required by Virginia law.

Colorado Privacy Act (CPA)

The Colorado Privacy Act (CPA) provides additional privacy rights to residents of Colorado, particularly as it relates to websites that collect and process user data through cookies, trackers, or analytics tools.

Even when data is gathered indirectly—such as device identifiers or browsing patterns—this law requires that users are given clear choices and control over how their information is used.

Your Rights Under CPA:

  • View, modify, or delete your personal data at any time
  • Refuse participation in behavioral targeting or algorithmic profiling
  • Receive a structured, usable export of your data
  • Use browser-based privacy settings (such as Global Privacy Control signals) to automatically opt out

We uphold these rights by honoring browser-level opt-outs, limiting data collection to its essential purpose, and offering clear explanations about how and why data is used. Users can manage cookies and adjust privacy preferences through on-site tools that are simple to access and understand.

Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA)

The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) is a federal law designed to protect the personal information of children under 13 years of age. It applies to digital platforms that either target children directly or knowingly collect data from users within that age group.

At Carbbi, we do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. However, if any content we offer is geared toward younger users, we take all necessary steps to remain compliant with COPPA.

Our COPPA Commitments:

  • Obtain verified parental consent before collecting any personal information from children under 13
  • Collect only essential information and avoid gathering more than is necessary
  • Allow parents or guardians to review, modify, or delete their child’s data upon request
  • Display clear and understandable privacy notices in any child-focused content

If you are a parent or legal guardian and suspect that your child’s information has been collected through Carbbi without proper consent, we urge you to contact us so we can promptly investigate and remove the data if needed.

How We Stay Compliant

To comply with U.S. data privacy laws, we maintain a framework focused on clarity, accountability, and user empowerment. The types of data Carbbi collects are typically limited to functional and technical information—such as usage statistics, browser types, and interactions with app content—but we treat all collected data with a high level of care.

We are committed to helping you make informed choices when visiting Carbbi. If you have questions about your data, or would like to submit a privacy-related request, please contact us at https://carbbi.com/contact.     

VIII. Future Adjustments to Our Privacy Policy

As Carbbi develops new features, improves its systems, or adjusts to changes in technology, this Privacy Policy may be updated to reflect current practices. Updates may also be made to clarify our approach to data handling or respond to evolving privacy expectations.

Whenever this policy is revised, the latest version will be published on this page. If the changes affect how we use or manage your personal data, we will communicate them clearly so that you remain informed.

We recommend reviewing this page from time to time to stay up to date. Continued use of the site after any updates means you accept the revised terms. If at any point the changes no longer align with your preferences, you may choose to stop using the platform.
