PRIVACY POLICY
Privacy Policy
Clear details on what we collect, why we collect it, and how uploads are handled.
Quick Summary
The short version, without legal jargon.
Codes of Hex is designed to be minimal. We collect only what we need to run the website, keep it secure, and improve the tools.
We do not sell your data
We do not sell personal information and we do not use your uploaded file contents for profiling.
Tools may process uploads
Some tools require uploading files to generate an output. Those uploads are used only to perform the requested task.
Some tools run in-browser
When a tool runs entirely in your browser (for example, QR Code Generator), the content stays on your device.
Ads and analytics may be enabled
If enabled, third parties may use cookies for ads and analytics. You can control cookies in your browser settings.
If you have questions about this policy, email us at max2draciel@gmail.com.
Information We Collect
What we collect depends on how you use the site.
Usage and device data
Like most websites, our servers may collect basic log data such as IP address, user-agent (browser), referring page, timestamps, and requested URLs. This helps with security, troubleshooting, and performance.
Files and text you submit
Some tools require you to upload a file or submit text so we can process it and return an output (for example, converting HTML to PDF). We use that content only to perform the requested operation.
Contact messages
If you email us, we receive your email address and the information you include in the message so we can reply.
Cookies (if enabled)
If ads and analytics are enabled, cookies and similar technologies may be used by us and third-party providers to operate those services.
How We Use Information
The reasons are simple: run, secure, and improve the tools.
- Provide the tools and deliver the output you request
- Maintain security and prevent abuse (rate limiting, debugging, fraud prevention)
- Monitor reliability (errors, performance)
- Understand aggregate usage so we can improve features and prioritize new tools
- Respond to support and feedback emails
Advertising And Analytics
What happens if ads/analytics are turned on.
Advertising (Google AdSense)
Codes of Hex may display ads, including ads served by Google AdSense, if enabled. Google and other ad providers may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads and measure performance. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Depending on your settings and region, ads may be personalized or non-personalized.
You can manage ad personalization in your Google account ad settings, and you can control cookies through your browser settings.
Analytics (Google Analytics)
We may use analytics (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use the site, for example which pages are visited and which devices are used. This information is used in aggregate to improve the Service.
File Processing And Retention
How uploaded files are handled.
Uploaded files are processed to produce the output you requested. We aim to keep retention minimal.
Temporary processing
When a tool needs a file upload, the file is used to run the requested operation and return your result. Files are not used to build user profiles or for advertising.
Deletion
Temporary files are intended to be deleted shortly after processing completes (typically within minutes). If you are processing sensitive files, consider redacting personal data first.
We may keep non-identifying aggregate counters (for example, total number of conversions generated) to show usage and help prioritize improvements.
Sharing And Security
We share only what is needed to run the site.
Sharing
We may share information with service providers who help operate the website (for example, hosting, analytics, or advertising providers), but only as needed to run the Service. We do not sell personal information.
Security
We use reasonable measures to protect the Service. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, so please keep backups of your originals.
Children And Changes
A couple of standard but important notes.
Children
The Service is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Policy updates
We may update this Privacy Policy as the site evolves. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
