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.

AlphaCoder does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data or user-entered text. All text encoding, decoding, and cipher operations are performed entirely within your web browser using client-side JavaScript. No input text is ever sent to our servers or any third-party server.

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, our analytics provider (described below) may set cookies to distinguish unique visitors and analyze site usage patterns. These cookies do not contain personal information and cannot be used to identify you.

You can control cookie behavior through your browser settings. Blocking analytics 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 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 is designed to be GDPR-compliant by default. Because we do not collect, process, or store personal data, most GDPR obligations regarding data handling do not apply to our core service. Nonetheless, 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.
