This privacy policy explains how Backdrova collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our website, browse wallpapers, use wallpaper tools, subscribe to updates, or contact us.
If you have questions, email us at [email protected] or use our contact page.

Privacy Policy: Information We Collect

Backdrova collects limited information to keep the site running smoothly, improve the wallpaper browsing experience, protect against abuse, and understand how visitors use the site. The information we may collect includes:

  • Basic usage data: pages viewed, wallpaper pages visited, device type, browser type, referring pages, approximate location such as city or region, and general interaction data.
  • Log data: IP address, timestamps, browser details, referral pages, error logs, security events, and diagnostic information used for troubleshooting and site protection.
  • Wallpaper interaction data: clicks on download buttons, guide links, color hubs, collection hubs, device pages, related wallpapers, setup examples, and other navigation elements.
  • Tool usage data: information used by Backdrova tools such as screen-size checkers, wallpaper fit checkers, palette tools, copy buttons, and similar features that help visitors choose wallpapers.
  • Emails if you subscribe: if you join our newsletter or update list, we collect your email address so we can send wallpaper drops, site updates, and related announcements.
  • Messages you send us: if you contact Backdrova, we receive the information you include in your message, such as your name, email address, website, request details, or copyright concern.

Privacy Policy: Wallpaper Tools and Screen-Size Features

Backdrova may provide tools that help you check your screen size, compare wallpaper fit, copy color palette information, review resolution details, or choose better wallpapers for your device. These tools may use browser-provided information such as screen width, screen height, device type, or viewport size to provide a result.

These tools are designed to improve the user experience and help visitors choose cleaner wallpapers for desktop, ultra-wide, dual-monitor, phone, tablet, and other screen setups. Tool results are for convenience only and may not perfectly reflect every device, browser, display setting, zoom level, operating system, or monitor configuration.

Privacy Policy: Cookies & Similar Technologies

Backdrova may use cookies, local storage, pixels, scripts, tags, and similar technologies to keep the site working, remember preferences, measure traffic, understand performance, protect against abuse, and improve the browsing experience.

Third-party services we use may also set their own cookies or similar technologies. These may include analytics providers, advertising partners, embedded content providers, security tools, spam-prevention tools, or newsletter services. You can control cookies through your browser settings. However, some features may not work as expected if cookies or similar technologies are disabled.

Privacy Policy: How We Use Information

We use information for clear, practical reasons connected to operating and improving Backdrova. For example, we may use information to:

  • deliver website content, wallpaper pages, image previews, downloads, guides, colors, collections, and device hubs reliably
  • understand which wallpapers, guides, colors, collections, and device pages visitors use most
  • improve page layout, mobile usability, navigation, internal linking, download flow, and site performance
  • support tools such as screen-size checks, wallpaper fit suggestions, palette copying, and related wallpaper recommendations
  • protect Backdrova from spam, scraping, abuse, suspicious traffic, automated requests, security threats, or technical errors
  • respond when you contact us, submit a question, report an issue, or send a copyright-related request
  • send newsletters or updates if you choose to subscribe
  • evaluate advertising, affiliate links, or sponsored placements if those features are used

Privacy Policy: Google Analytics (GA4)

Backdrova uses Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use the site. GA4 helps us review traffic patterns, improve page structure, measure guide performance, understand browsing paths, and make the wallpaper library easier to use.

GA4 may collect information such as device type, browser type, approximate location, pages viewed, referring pages, session activity, on-site interactions, clicks, and other usage signals. Google may process this data under its own privacy policies and analytics terms.

If you prefer, you can opt out of Google Analytics using this browser add-on:

Privacy Policy: Advertising and Google AdSense

Backdrova may display ads, including ads served by Google AdSense or other advertising partners. Advertising partners may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, device identifiers, browser information, and similar technologies to serve ads, limit repeat ads, measure ad performance, detect fraud, and improve ad relevance.

Google and other third-party vendors may use cookies to serve ads based on a visitor’s prior visits to Backdrova or other websites. Visitors may be able to manage personalized advertising through Google’s ad settings and other browser or device controls.

Backdrova aims to keep ads clearly separated from official wallpaper download buttons, site navigation, and tool actions. Ads do not create a license to use Backdrova wallpapers beyond the personal-use rules described in our Copyright & Usage Notice.

For more details about ads and site monetization, review our Affiliate & Earnings Disclaimer.

Privacy Policy: Email Newsletters

If you subscribe to Backdrova emails, we use your email address to send updates such as new wallpaper drops, guide announcements, collection updates, or site news. You can unsubscribe at any time using the unsubscribe link in the email or by contacting us.

We do not want you to receive emails you no longer want. If you have trouble unsubscribing, contact us and we will take reasonable steps to remove your email from our list.

Privacy Policy: Contact Forms and Messages

If you contact Backdrova through a form or email, we collect the information you choose to provide. This may include your name, email address, website, message content, copyright details, URLs, screenshots, or other information related to your request.

We use this information to respond to your message, review your request, investigate issues, process copyright concerns, improve the site, or protect Backdrova from misuse.

Privacy Policy: Spam Protection and Security Tools

Backdrova may use security, firewall, CAPTCHA, spam-prevention, or abuse-detection tools to protect the site and reduce unwanted submissions, bots, scraping, fake traffic, and malicious activity.

These tools may process technical data such as IP address, browser information, device signals, interaction patterns, cookies, or other security-related information to determine whether traffic appears legitimate.

Privacy Policy: Accounts and Saved Features

Backdrova may add optional user accounts or saved features in the future, such as favorites, saved wallpapers, collections, download history, or personalized browsing tools. These features may not be available at launch.

If accounts or saved features are enabled later, Backdrova may collect basic account information such as email address, username, password-related security data, login metadata, saved preferences, favorite wallpapers, or other information needed to provide the feature. We will update this privacy policy when those features are active.

Privacy Policy: Affiliate Links & Sponsored Content

Backdrova may use affiliate links, sponsored links, sponsored placements, or other monetization methods. If you click an affiliate or sponsored link, the third-party website may collect information according to its own privacy policy.

Affiliate links, sponsored placements, and ads do not control Backdrova’s wallpaper selection, guide content, download rules, or personal-use policy.

Privacy Policy: Third-Party Websites and Embedded Content

Backdrova may link to third-party websites, services, videos, tools, policies, articles, or other resources. We may also embed third-party content in the future.

Third-party websites and embedded services may collect information about you, use cookies, track interactions, or apply their own privacy policies. Backdrova is not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites or services.

Privacy Policy: Data Retention

We keep information only as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose it was collected. For example, server logs may be retained for security, diagnostics, abuse prevention, or troubleshooting. Newsletter records may remain until you unsubscribe or request removal.

Contact messages, copyright requests, and support-related communications may be retained when needed to respond, maintain records, resolve disputes, protect the site, or comply with legal obligations.

Privacy Policy: Data Sharing

Backdrova does not sell personal information in the ordinary sense of directly exchanging visitor contact details for money. However, some privacy laws may define certain advertising, analytics, or cookie-based activities as a “sale,” “sharing,” or “targeted advertising.”

We may share limited information with service providers that help us operate the site, such as hosting providers, analytics providers, advertising partners, newsletter platforms, spam-prevention tools, security services, or technical support providers.

Your Choices

You have options regarding your information. For example, you can:

  • disable cookies or adjust cookie settings in your browser
  • use privacy controls available through your browser, device, or advertising settings
  • opt out of Google Analytics using Google’s browser add-on
  • unsubscribe from Backdrova emails at any time
  • avoid submitting personal information through contact forms unless needed
  • request access, correction, or deletion of information you submitted to us, when applicable

Privacy Policy: Children’s Privacy

Backdrova is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child provided personal information to Backdrova, contact us and we will take reasonable steps to remove it.

Privacy Policy: Security

We use reasonable safeguards to protect Backdrova and reduce risk, including technical, administrative, and security measures where appropriate. However, no website, email system, form, server, or online service can guarantee perfect security.

Please avoid sending sensitive personal information, payment information, passwords, government identification numbers, private account details, or confidential material through contact forms or email.

Privacy Policy: International Visitors

Backdrova is operated from the United States. If you visit Backdrova from outside the United States, your information may be processed in the United States or other locations where our service providers operate.

Depending on where you live, you may have certain privacy rights under local laws. We will make reasonable efforts to respond to privacy requests that apply to Backdrova.

Privacy Policy: Updates to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time as Backdrova evolves, including when we add new wallpaper tools, ads, analytics features, account features, newsletter services, or other site functionality.

When we make changes, we will update this page. Continued use of Backdrova after an update means the revised policy applies going forward.
