Privacy Policy
Introduction
Swatchboard is a precision color toolkit that runs entirely in your browser. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website swatchboard.xyz and use our services.
By accessing or using our website, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with any part of this policy, please do not use our website.
Information We Collect
We collect minimal information necessary to provide and improve our service. Swatchboard is designed to run entirely client-side, meaning your data never leaves your browser unless you explicitly choose to share it.
The types of data we may collect include:
- Usage Data: Information about how you interact with our website (e.g., which tools you use, color palettes you generate). This data is used internally to improve our service and is not associated with your identity.
- Local Storage Data: Palettes, gradients, and other creations you save are stored in your browser's localStorage. This data remains on your device and is never transmitted to our servers.
- Cookie Data: We may use essential cookies for website functionality and analytics cookies to understand how our site is used. These cookies do not collect personally identifiable information. You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- To provide, maintain, and improve our website and services.
- To understand how you use our tools and features to enhance user experience.
- To debug and fix technical issues.
- To communicate with you about updates, security notices, or service announcements when necessary.
We do not sell, rent, or otherwise disclose your personal information to third parties for marketing purposes.
Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not share your personal data with third parties, except in the following limited circumstances:
- With your explicit consent.
- To comply with applicable laws, regulations, legal processes, or governmental requests.
- To protect and defend our rights, property, or safety, or that of our users or the public.
- In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, provided that the successor entity agrees to uphold the obligations outlined in this privacy policy.
Data Security
We implement reasonable security measures designed to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Since Swatchboard runs primarily in your browser, much of your data's security depends on your device and browser security practices.
We recommend keeping your browser and operating system up to date and using reputable security software to protect your data.
Your Rights and Choices
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have certain rights regarding your personal data, including:
- The right to access, correct, or delete your data.
- The right to restrict or object to certain types of processing.
- The right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
- The right to data portability.
To exercise these rights, please contact us through the information provided at the end of this policy. Since your data is stored locally in your browser, you can also manage it directly by clearing your browser data or using the 'Clear All' function within our application.
Children's Privacy
Our website is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate actions.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the updated policy on this page and updating the 'Last Updated' date.
Your continued use of our website after any changes to this Privacy Policy constitutes your acceptance of the new policy.
