Privacy Policy

Codeminal.dev (“we”, “us”, “our”) provides browser-based developer tools and educational content. We prioritize privacy and minimal data collection. This policy explains what we do and do not collect, how we use information, and your choices.

1. Local Processing — Data Stays With You

Most tools on Codeminal.dev run entirely in your browser. Input, conversions, encoding/decoding, and file operations are processed locally. No tool input or output is transmitted or stored on our servers.

2. Information We Do Not Collect

We do not collect or store:

• Text, code, or data entered into tools
• Files uploaded for processing
• Passwords, API keys, tokens, or credentials
• Tool outputs generated in your browser

3. Minimal Analytics

We may collect limited, aggregated analytics data to improve site performance. This data is fully anonymous and cannot identify you.

• Page views and basic site usage metrics
• Device type and browser family
• Approximate country (not exact location)
• Referring website

We prefer analytics tools that avoid cookies and user-level tracking.

4. Contact Messages

If you contact us, we collect your name, email address, and message solely to respond to your inquiry. This information is not used for marketing or profiling.

5. Cookies & Tracking

Codeminal.dev does not use:

• Advertising cookies
• Behavioral tracking pixels
• Cross-site profiling technologies

Some third-party services (such as CDN or analytics) may use minimal, privacy-respecting cookies for security or traffic handling.

6. Third-Party Services

We use trusted third-party providers such as Cloudflare (security/CDN), Plausible or Cloudflare Analytics (anonymous analytics), and GitHub (open-source hosting). These providers follow privacy-focused practices.

7. Data Sharing & Disclosure

We do not sell or rent personal data. We only disclose data if required by law or necessary to protect the safety, rights, or integrity of Codeminal.dev and its users.

8. Security

Because tools process data locally in your browser, most information never reaches our servers. We use standard security methods for contact messages or administrative data, but no system is completely secure. Avoid sending highly sensitive personal information.

9. Children

Codeminal.dev is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has shared information, contact us for removal.

10. Your Choices

You may:

• Use tools offline/in-browser without sending data to us
• Block analytics via browser extensions or Do Not Track
• Request deletion of contact emails you sent us

11. International Visitors & Legal Notes

Data protection laws differ across regions. This policy reflects general practices and does not create legal rights. For detailed compliance needs (GDPR/CCPA), consult a legal expert.

12. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally. Changes will appear here with a revised date. Continued use of the site means you accept the updated terms.
