Privacy Policy for CleanPad.app
Effective Date: 1.08.2024
CleanPad.app ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how the website uses browser storage, third-party analytics, and cookies, and what data may be processed while you use the service.
1. Information We Collect
We do not require account registration, email, or personal login data. The application stores notes locally in the user browser, using IndexedDB and cookies. In addition, analytics tools may collect limited technical and usage information, such as:
- Technical data: browser type, operating system, device information, time zone, and approximate IP address.
- Usage data: pages visited, navigation patterns, feature usage, and interaction with website elements.
- Local note data: text content saved in the browser for the purpose of note-taking functionality.
2. Purpose of Processing Your Data
We process data for the following purposes:
- Website operation: to keep notes available in the browser and provide the note-taking experience.
- Analytics and improvement: to understand how visitors use the website and improve functionality and usability.
- Security and reliability: to help maintain the proper operation of the service and reduce technical errors.
3. Legal Basis for Processing
Where applicable, we rely on legitimate interests to analyze website usage and improve the service. We also respect browser-based consent or opt-out settings, where supported by the third-party tools used on the site.
4. Analytics and Cookies
We may use analytics providers and cookies to assess website performance and user behavior. These tools may collect information such as:
- pages visited on our website
- time spent on pages
- clicks and interaction patterns
- referring domains and browser metadata
We encourage users to review the privacy documentation of the analytics providers used by the website. You can also opt out of tracking in your browser or by using available browser extensions.
5. Local Storage and Note Data
Notes are stored locally in the browser using IndexedDB and cookies. This means they are not uploaded to our server by default. However, they remain on the device and can be accessed by anyone able to use the same browser profile or device. Clearing browser data or site data will remove saved notes from the application.
6. Data Retention
We do not keep your notes on a central server. Local browser data remains until you delete it or clear the browser storage. Third-party analytics providers may retain data according to their own retention policies.
7. Data Security
We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to maintain the site securely. However, browser-stored data is only as secure as the device, browser, and local environment in which it is kept. We cannot guarantee protection against device compromise, malware, or user misconfiguration.
8. Your Rights
Depending on your location and applicable laws, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your personal data. If you are using a third-party analytics provider, you may also be able to exercise rights directly with that provider under its own terms.
9. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page. We encourage you to review it periodically.
10. Contact Us
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or the website data practices, please contact us through the project issue tracker or the contact page.
This document is intended to be clear and transparent. It may be updated as the product evolves or if the tracking and analytics setup changes.
