MIB Viewer

Privacy Policy

Last updated September 10, 2026

MIB Viewer ("MIB Viewer," "we," "us," or "our") operates the website located at https://mib-viewer.com.

This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you use MIB Viewer, how that information may be used, and the choices available to you.

By using MIB Viewer, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

1. Information We Collect

MIB Viewer is designed to allow visitors to use the website without creating an account or providing personal information.

Depending on how you use the website, we may collect or receive certain information automatically, including:

  • IP address
  • Browser type and version
  • Device type
  • Operating system
  • Pages visited
  • Referring website
  • Approximate geographic information
  • Date and time of visits
  • Information about how visitors interact with the website
  • Search queries or other information submitted through the site's features

We use this information primarily to operate, maintain, secure, and improve MIB Viewer.

2. MIB File Uploads

If you use the site's upload tool to preview a MIB file, its contents are sent to our servers to be parsed and displayed to you. The uploaded file is not added to MIB Viewer's shared, publicly searchable database - it remains separate from that content and is only browsable within the session you uploaded it in.

The file itself is retained on our servers to support this feature, and is not automatically deleted after your session ends. Please avoid uploading files containing sensitive or confidential information you would not want retained.

3. Information You Provide

If you contact us by email or otherwise voluntarily provide information to us, we may retain that information in order to respond to your request and provide customer support.

We do not require users to create an account to browse the publicly available MIB Viewer database.

Please do not submit passwords, payment information, government identification numbers, or other sensitive personal information through the website's contact forms or email unless specifically requested.

4. Cookies and Similar Technologies

MIB Viewer may use cookies, local storage, web beacons, and similar technologies.

These technologies may be used for purposes including:

  • Remembering preferences
  • Understanding website usage
  • Measuring website traffic
  • Improving website performance
  • Security and fraud prevention
  • Delivering and measuring advertising

Some cookies may be placed by third-party services that operate on our behalf or provide services used by the website. The two services we use most directly - Google Analytics and Google AdSense - are described in the two sections below, including how to opt out of each.

5. Google Analytics

MIB Viewer uses Google Analytics to understand aggregate usage trends - which pages and guides are visited most, how visitors navigate the site, and similar traffic patterns. When loaded, Google Analytics sets cookies to generate a session identifier and may collect information such as IP address, approximate location, device type, browser, and the pages you visit.

We view this information in aggregated, summary form through the Analytics dashboard. We do not use Google Analytics to build individual visitor profiles.

Opt out: you can prevent your browser from sending data to Google Analytics using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

6. Google AdSense and Advertising

MIB Viewer uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google and its advertising partners use cookies to serve ads based on a visitor's prior visits to MIB Viewer or other websites.

Google's use of advertising cookies enables Google and its partners to serve advertisements to users based on their visit to MIB Viewer and/or other websites on the Internet. Depending on applicable settings and consent requirements, advertisements may be personalized based on information such as a user's previous interactions with websites or advertising services.

Opt out: you can manage or turn off personalized advertising from Google through Google Ads Settings. Google also participates in two broader, industry-wide opt-out programs that cover many participating ad networks at once, not just Google's: the Digital Advertising Alliance's tool at optout.aboutads.info, and the Network Advertising Initiative's tool at optout.networkadvertising.org.

For more information about how Google uses information from sites that use its services, visit Google's "How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services" page.

7. Other Third-Party Services

Beyond Google Analytics and Google AdSense, MIB Viewer may use additional third-party services for security, performance monitoring, or website hosting and infrastructure.

These third parties may collect information through cookies, log files, or similar technologies in accordance with their own privacy policies. Third-party services may change over time as MIB Viewer adds, removes, or replaces service providers.

8. How We Use Information

Information collected through MIB Viewer may be used to:

  • Operate and maintain the website
  • Provide requested functionality
  • Improve search and browsing features
  • Monitor website performance
  • Detect and prevent abuse, fraud, and security threats
  • Understand how visitors use the website
  • Respond to support requests
  • Analyze traffic and usage trends
  • Display and measure advertising
  • Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell personal information as a primary business activity.

9. Data Retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including operating the website, maintaining security, responding to requests, analyzing usage, and complying with legal obligations.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and how it is collected.

10. Third-Party Websites

MIB Viewer may contain links to third-party websites, services, documentation, or resources.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, security, or content of third-party websites.

We encourage visitors to review the privacy policies of third-party websites before providing them with personal information.

11. Children's Privacy

MIB Viewer is a general-purpose technical website and is not directed toward children under the age of 13.

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so that we can take appropriate action.

12. Security

We take reasonable measures to protect information associated with MIB Viewer.

However, no website, server, network, or method of electronic transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

13. Your Privacy Choices

Depending on where you live, you may have certain rights concerning your personal information, including rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain uses of your information.

You can control cookies generally through your browser settings. For the specific services MIB Viewer uses:

Where legally required, MIB Viewer may provide additional consent and privacy controls.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to MIB Viewer, applicable laws, or the services we use.
