Privacy Policy

At AlphaCoder.net ("we", "us", or "our"), your privacy is our top priority. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data when you use our website at https://alphacoder.net.

Your conversion inputs are processed locally in your browser and are not collected by AlphaCoder. All text encoding, decoding, and cipher operations are performed entirely within your web browser using client-side JavaScript. No conversion input is sent to our servers or third-party servers. Site analytics (Google Analytics) and advertising (Google AdSense) may process visit and device data through cookies, as explained in the Third-Party Services section below.

We do not require user accounts, logins, email addresses, or any form of registration to use any of our tools.

AlphaCoder itself does not set any first-party cookies. However, the third-party services described below -- our analytics provider (Google Analytics) and our advertising provider (Google AdSense) -- may set cookies to distinguish unique visitors, analyze site usage, and serve ads. These cookies are not used by us to identify you personally.

You can control cookie behavior through your browser settings, and manage advertising cookies via the links in the Third-Party Services section below. Blocking analytics or advertising cookies will not affect the functionality of any AlphaCoder tool.

Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use our site -- which pages are visited, how long users stay, and which tools are most popular. Google Analytics collects anonymized, aggregated data including:

• Pages viewed and time spent on each page
• Approximate geographic location (country/city level)
• Browser type and operating system
• Referral source (how you found our site)
• Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)

Google Analytics does not collect any text you enter into our tools. For more information, see Google's Privacy Policy.

Google AdSense: This site uses Google AdSense for advertising. When ads are served, Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to show ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. AdSense does not receive any text you enter into our tools. You can review and control how Google personalizes ads at My Ad Center, opt out of personalized advertising at Google Ads Settings, and learn more via How Google uses cookies in advertising. Third-party vendors' use of advertising cookies can also be managed at aboutads.info.

Google Fonts: We load the Inter and JetBrains Mono typefaces from Google Fonts. Google may log font requests. See Google Fonts Privacy FAQ.

AlphaCoder may use your browser's localStorage to save user preferences such as your selected theme (dark/light mode). This data is stored only on your device and is never transmitted to any server.

AlphaCoder's own conversion tools do not collect, process, or store your personal data, so for the tools themselves there is nothing to export or erase. Our analytics and advertising providers (Google Analytics and Google AdSense) do process data through cookies, and GDPR applies to that processing — you can control or opt out of it using the links in the Third-Party Services section above. For the service overall we affirm:

• Right to access: We hold no personal data to provide.
• Right to erasure: No personal data is stored on our servers to delete.
• Right to portability: All processing occurs locally; you already have your data.
• Data minimization: We collect the absolute minimum (zero personal data from tools).
• Lawful basis: Analytics processing is based on legitimate interest in improving our service.

Users in the European Economic Area (EEA) and United Kingdom can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

AlphaCoder is designed to be educational and safe for users of all ages, including children. We do not knowingly collect any personal information from children under 13 (or the applicable age in your jurisdiction). Because our tools operate entirely client-side with no data transmission, children can use AlphaCoder safely.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
