1. Introduction

We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. If you have any questions or concerns about this privacy notice or our practices with regard to your personal information, please contact us.

2. Information We Collect

A. Personal Information (Currently None)

At this time, we do not require you to register, log in, or provide any personally identifiable information (PII) such as your name, email address, or phone number to use the core features of BeadMapper.

B. User-Generated Content (Local Storage)

ℹ️ Privacy First: Local Storage

The bead patterns and designs you create are stored locally on your device using your browser's Local Storage or Cookies technology. We do not upload, view, or store your designs on our servers in the current version of the Site.

C. Usage Data (Analytics)

We use third-party analytics tools, such as Google Analytics, to help us understand how our Site is used. These tools may collect non-personal information sent by your browser, such as:

  • IP address (anonymized where possible)
  • Browser type and version
  • Pages visited and time spent on the Site
  • Device type

3. How We Use Your Information

Since we currently do not collect personal data, our use of information is limited to:

  • Analytics: Using aggregated, non-personal data to analyze trends and improve the functionality of our Site.
  • Service Functionality: Using local browser storage to save your work-in-progress on your own device.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use Cookies to enhance your experience (e.g., remembering your grid settings) and for analytics purposes. You can choose to disable cookies through your browser settings, but this may affect your ability to save designs locally.

5. Future Changes to Data Collection

We are constantly developing BeadMapper. In the future, we may introduce features such as:

  • User Accounts (requiring Email/Password)
  • Cloud Saving (storing designs on our servers)
  • Public Sharing (making designs visible to others)

If we introduce these features, we will update this Privacy Policy to clearly explain what new data we collect and obtain your consent where necessary.
