Privacy Policy

Arbenger ("we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what choices you have. We keep it short and clear on purpose.

Information We Collect

Right now, we collect very little:

• Theme preference -- We store your light/dark mode choice in your browser's localStorage. This never leaves your device.
• Anonymous usage statistics -- Some tools (like our Image Resizer) send an anonymous counter when you complete an action (e.g., resizing an image). This records only the number of actions -- no personal data, no image data, no IP address, and no user identifier. The count is stored in an external database to display aggregate lifetime stats.
• Analytics data -- We may add privacy-friendly analytics in the future (e.g., page views, referrer). If we do, we'll update this policy first.
• Contact form data -- If we add a contact form, we'll collect whatever you submit (name, email, message). We won't use it for anything else.

How We Use Your Information

Any information we collect is used to:

• Make the site work properly (like remembering your theme)
• Understand how people use the site so we can improve it
• Respond to you if you reach out

We don't sell your data. We don't share it with advertisers. Period.

Data Storage and Security

Your theme preference stays in your browser -- we never see it. Anonymous usage counts are stored in a PostgreSQL database hosted by Neon, accessed through Cloudflare's Hyperdrive connection pooling. This data contains no personal information -- only aggregate action counts per tool. We use reasonable security measures to protect all stored data. No system is 100% secure, but we take it seriously.

Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

• Cloudflare -- For hosting and CDN. Cloudflare may collect some technical data (like IP addresses) as part of delivering the site. See Cloudflare's privacy policy.
• Neon -- Database provider used to store anonymous, aggregate usage counts (e.g., total images resized). No personal data is stored in this database. See Neon's privacy policy.
• Analytics -- We may add a privacy-friendly analytics service in the future. We'll update this section when we do.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access -- Ask what data we have about you
• Deletion -- Ask us to delete any data we have about you
• Opt out -- Decline cookies via our consent banner or your browser settings

To exercise any of these rights, email us at contact@arbenger.com.

Children's Privacy

This site is not directed at children under 13. We don't knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we'll remove it.

Changes to This Policy

If we make significant changes, we'll update the date at the top of this page. For major changes, we may also post a notice on the site. We recommend checking back occasionally.
