Privacy Policy

This site is designed around browser-side processing and minimal data exposure.
Core operating principle

The main design goal of thestatickit.com is to process user input in the browser whenever possible. Many tools, calculators, formatters, and games are intentionally built so that data stays on the device instead of being uploaded to an application backend for processing.

That does not mean every browser interaction creates zero network traffic. The site itself still has to be delivered to the browser, and advertising or platform scripts may load where configured. The intended product behavior, however, is to avoid unnecessary collection of the actual tool inputs.

This policy was last updated in April 2026. If the site's data practices change materially, this page will be updated to reflect those changes.


What data is collected

The site does not operate a user account system. No name, email address, phone number, or personal identifier is collected as part of normal tool use.

Standard web server logs may record IP addresses, browser user-agent strings, and page URLs as part of normal HTTP infrastructure. These are not linked to individual identities and are not used for behavioral profiling.

If you contact the site through a feedback channel, the content of that message and any contact details you voluntarily include may be retained to respond to your inquiry.


Ads and third-party scripts

Advertising may be displayed on parts of the site through Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site and other sites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.

If a page uses third-party scripts or platform services, users should understand that those providers operate under their own policies. The site aims not to route private tool content through them when a local workflow is possible.

No tool input — such as JSON data, financial figures, passwords, or uploaded files — is sent to advertising networks. Ad scripts load independently of tool processing.


EEA, UK, and Switzerland — consent for personalized ads (Google AdSense)

Google’s publisher rules require a Google-certified consent management platform (CMP) that integrates with the IAB Transparency and Consent Framework (TCF) when serving personalized ads to users in the European Economic Area and UK (enforcement from 16 January 2024) and Switzerland (from 31 July 2024). Only traffic with a valid signal from such a CMP is treated as eligible for personalized ads; other setups may receive non-personalized or limited ads where Google supports them.

This site is operated with a global audience in mind. If you are in the EEA, UK, or Switzerland, you may see a consent banner or preference controls provided by our chosen CMP or by Google’s own Privacy & messaging (European regulations) tools in the AdSense account, which Google documents as certified for this purpose. The exact implementation can change as we align with Google’s current console options.

We do not use tool inputs to decide whether to show consent UI; consent flows are separate from calculator and formatter processing. For questions about how ads are configured on this domain, use the Contact page.


Cookies and local storage

Some tools use browser localStorage or sessionStorage to preserve state between page loads, such as saving a game score or remembering a calculator input. This data stays in your browser and is not transmitted to any server.

Third-party advertising scripts may set their own cookies. These are governed by the respective provider's privacy policy, not this one.

You can clear browser storage and cookies at any time through your browser settings. Doing so will reset any locally saved tool state.


Sensitive inputs

Users should still exercise judgment before entering highly sensitive data into any browser tool. Even when a workflow is local-first, users remain responsible for device security, browser extensions, and whether the output is later copied, downloaded, or shared.

For regulated, legal, medical, tax, or high-stakes financial work, always review the result and use official or professional channels where appropriate.

Tools that handle particularly sensitive data — such as PDF redaction, Aadhaar masking, or password checking — include explicit privacy notes explaining exactly what leaves the browser and what does not.


Your rights

Because the site does not collect personal data as part of normal tool use, there is typically no personal data to access, correct, or delete. If you believe data about you has been collected and wish to make a request, use the contact page.

Users in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, California, and other jurisdictions with data protection laws retain any rights granted by those laws. The site's minimal-collection design is intended to reduce the scope of those obligations in practice.
