Melanin Sim Finds (“we,” “our,” or “the site”) is a curated Sims 4 custom-content discovery website. This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you visit melaninsimfinds.com, why it may be used, and the choices available to you.
Information we may collect
Information you provide: If you contact us, submit a creator suggestion, or send a copyright request, we may receive the name, email address, message, links, and other details you choose to provide.
Technical information: Our hosting provider and security tools may automatically process basic technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, requested pages, and approximate location. This information is generally used to operate, protect, and improve the website.
Cookies and similar technologies: The site may use cookies, local storage, pixels, or similar tools for essential functionality, preferences, security, audience measurement, and advertising. You can control cookies through your browser and, where available, through the site’s consent controls.
How we use information
- To operate, secure, maintain, and troubleshoot the website.
- To respond to questions, creator submissions, corrections, and copyright requests.
- To understand which guides and Sims 4 CC categories are most useful.
- To prevent spam, abuse, fraud, or harmful activity.
- To comply with applicable obligations and enforce our site policies.
- To display and measure advertising if advertising is enabled.
Google advertising and analytics
If Google AdSense or another Google advertising service is enabled, Google and its partners may use cookies or similar technologies to serve, personalize, and measure ads. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use advertising cookies based on a visitor’s prior visits to this and other websites. Depending on your location and consent choices, you may receive personalized, non-personalized, or limited ads.
You can learn how Google uses information from sites that use its services in the Google partner-sites notice. You can manage Google advertising preferences through Google Ads Settings. Where required, we will use a Google-certified consent management platform before serving personalized advertising.
Embedded content and external creator links
Our pages may display or link to content hosted by Sims 4 creators and platforms such as Patreon, Tumblr, Wix, YouTube, or other creator websites. Visiting or interacting with third-party content may allow those services to collect information under their own privacy policies. Melanin Sim Finds does not control the privacy practices, availability, download files, memberships, or payment systems of external websites. Please review a creator’s original post and the platform’s policies before downloading or purchasing anything.
How information may be shared
We do not sell personal information. Information may be processed by service providers that help us host, secure, analyze, maintain, or monetize the site. We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with law, protect rights and safety, investigate misuse, or respond to a valid legal request.
Data retention and security
We keep submitted information only as long as reasonably needed for the purpose it was collected, recordkeeping, security, dispute resolution, or legal obligations. No website or transmission method is completely secure, but we use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards appropriate for a small editorial website.
Your privacy choices
- Use your browser settings to block or delete cookies.
- Use the consent controls shown on the site, when available.
- Adjust personalized advertising through Google Ads Settings.
- Ask us to review, correct, or delete personal information you previously submitted, subject to applicable exceptions.
Privacy rights vary by location. To make a request, use our Contact page. We may need enough information to understand and verify the request, but please do not send passwords, identification documents, or other highly sensitive information through the form.
Children’s privacy
Melanin Sim Finds is a general-audience Sims 4 editorial website and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly request personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has submitted personal information, please contact us so we can review the request.

We may update this Privacy Policy when the site, service providers, or legal requirements change. The “Last updated” date will identify the newest version.
