Effective Date: January 01, 2025
Last Updated: January 01, 2025

Welcome to arcadely.top. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit arcadely.top, arcadely.top, which provides a collection of free online tools. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data transparently and legally. By using arcadely.top, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

1. Information We Collect

arcadely.top is designed to be a privacy-conscious service. We collect minimal information to operate and improve our tools.

a) Information You Provide Directly:

When you use the tools on arcadely.top, you may input data (e.g., text, numbers, files) for processing. This input data is processed in real-time to provide the tool's function and is not stored on our servers after the processing is complete, unless explicitly stated for a specific, optional feature (e.g., saving a temporary link). We do not require account creation for general use.

b) Automatically Collected Information:

Like most websites, we automatically collect certain non-personally identifiable information when you visit arcadely.top. This may include:

• Log Data: Your IP address, browser type and version, pages of arcadely.top that you visit, the time and date of your visit, time spent on those pages, and other diagnostic data.
• Usage Data: Information on how you interact with our tools, such as which tools are used most frequently and general interaction patterns. This is aggregated and anonymized.
• Device Information: Type of device, operating system, and screen resolution to optimize tool presentation.

2. How We Use Your Information

The information we collect is used for the following purposes:

• To provide, operate, and maintain the functionality of arcadely.top and its free tools.
• To process your tool requests in real-time and deliver the intended results.
• To analyze aggregated, non-identifiable usage trends to understand which tools are most valuable and to guide improvements, bug fixes, and the development of new tools.
• To monitor the security and integrity of arcadely.top and prevent abuse, fraud, or unauthorized access.
• To communicate with you, if you have contacted us via email, solely for the purpose of responding to your inquiry.

3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

arcadely.top uses a minimal set of cookies and similar tracking technologies.

• Essential Cookies: Necessary for the basic functioning of arcadely.top (e.g., managing temporary sessions for certain tools).
• Analytics Cookies: We use a privacy-focused analytics service (see Third-Party Services) to collect aggregated data about website traffic and interaction. This helps us understand overall usage without identifying individual users.
• Preference Cookies: To remember your preferences, such as theme selection (light/dark mode) or language settings if such features are offered.

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, some features of arcadely.top may not function properly.

4. Data Security Measures

We implement reasonable and appropriate technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the limited data we process. We use standard encryption (HTTPS/SSL) to protect data in transit between your browser and arcadely.top. As the input data for our tools is processed transiently and not stored, the risk of permanent data exposure is minimized. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Third-Party Services

arcadely.top utilizes services from trusted third-party providers to facilitate our service. These providers have access to your information only to perform specific tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for other purposes.

• Analytics Providers: We use analytics services like Plausible Analytics or Google Analytics (with IP anonymization enabled) to understand aggregated usage. These providers collect data as described in their own privacy policies.
• Hosting Providers: arcadely.top is hosted on servers provided by third-party companies. They store log files as part of their standard service.
• Advertising Partners: arcadely.top may display non-intrusive advertisements to support the free service. These partners may use cookies to serve relevant ads based on your general browsing patterns.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of these third-party service providers.

6. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information:

• Access & Portability: You can request details about the limited personal data we hold about you.
• Correction & Deletion: You can request correction or deletion of your personal data. Note that most tool input data is not stored.
• Opt-Out: You can opt out of non-essential cookies via our cookie banner or your browser settings. You can opt out of personalized advertising through industry opt-out platforms like the Digital Advertising Alliance.
• Do Not Track: Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature. arcadely.top currently does not respond to "Do Not Track" signals, but we limit tracking as described in this policy.

To exercise these rights, please contact us at [email protected].

7. Data Retention

We retain different types of information for different periods:

• Tool Input Data: Generally not retained after processing. Any temporary storage (e.g., for generating shareable links) is automatically purged within a short, specified timeframe (e.g., 24 hours).
• Log Files: Automatically collected log data (IP addresses, etc.) are retained for a limited period (typically 30-90 days) for security, debugging, and analytics purposes, after which they are deleted or anonymized.
• Contact Emails: If you contact us, we retain your email and correspondence for as long as necessary to address your inquiry and for our records.

8. Children's Privacy

arcadely.top is not directed at individuals under the age of 13 ("Children"). We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from anyone under the age of 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your Child has provided us with Personal Data, please contact us. If we become aware that we have collected Personal Data from Children without verification of parental consent, we take steps to remove that information from our servers.
