4. No Ad Tracking

ForGrit does not use any advertising or ad-tracking cookies. We do not:

• Display advertisements on our platform

• Sell or share cookie data with third parties for marketing

This is a deliberate choice. We believe developer tools should respect your privacy and never monetize your attention or data through advertising.
