Privacy notice

Controller and contact

Gadjet is an independent project that provides free browser tools, a local-website directory and a blog. For the purposes of data protection law, Gadjet is the controller of the limited data described here.

Privacy questions and requests can be sent to the contact address shown on this page.

Scope

This notice covers the Gadjet website, its tools, the directory and the blog. It does not cover websites you reach through directory or article links; their own privacy policies apply.

What Gadjet does not collect

Gadjet does not provide accounts and does not run its own analytics, advertising, tracking pixels or cross-site profiling. Text entered into the alphabet converter, timer or calculator is processed in your browser and is not sent to Gadjet.

Copy buttons use the clipboard only after you press them. The service worker and browser cache store site files on your device; they do not send your tool input anywhere.

Technical data processed by hosting

Like any website, Gadjet depends on a hosting provider. Cloudflare processes request information needed to deliver and secure the pages, such as an IP address, the requested URL, browser details, the time of the request and security signals.

Gadjet does not receive or keep a separate copy of this request data and does not combine it into a profile of you. Cloudflare acts as a hosting, content-delivery and security provider.

Purposes and legal bases

The limited technical data is used to deliver pages, keep the service available, prevent abuse, diagnose failures and comply with legal obligations.

Where the EU or UK GDPR applies, the legal basis is our legitimate interest in operating a secure and available service (Article 6(1)(f)), and, where required, compliance with a legal obligation (Article 6(1)(c)). We do not use this data for advertising or automated decisions with legal effects.

Cookies and local storage

Gadjet sets no analytics or advertising cookies. Cloudflare may set strictly necessary security cookies to protect the site. The service worker cache is stored by your browser, not in a cookie.

See the cookie notice for more detail and for the choices available in your browser.

Sharing and international transfers

We do not sell, rent or trade personal data. Data is shared only with service providers that are necessary to run the site, currently Cloudflare for hosting, content delivery and security, and with authorities or advisers where the law requires it.

Cloudflare operates a global network, so technical data may be processed outside your country. Where required, transfers are covered by Cloudflare’s Data Processing Addendum and Standard Contractual Clauses or another lawful transfer mechanism.

Gadjet does not maintain its own database or server that stores your tool input.

Retention

Gadjet does not keep a separate copy of request data. Cloudflare retains edge and security data for the periods described in its terms and configuration. Browser caches remain on your device until you clear site data.

We may retain information longer if necessary to resolve a dispute, enforce our terms or comply with the law.

Your rights

Where the EU or UK GDPR applies, you have the right to request access to your personal data, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, objection to processing, data portability, and withdrawal of consent where processing is based on consent. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

Send requests to the contact address on this page. Because Gadjet has no accounts, we may not be able to identify you from our own records; we will explain what is possible. Exercising these rights is free and will not lead to discrimination.

California privacy

Gadjet does not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined by the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the CPRA. We do not use cross-site behavioural advertising.

The categories of personal information that may be processed by our hosting provider are identifiers (such as an IP address), internet or network activity (such as the requested URL, browser details and time), and security signals. They are used for delivery, security, debugging and legal compliance.

California residents may have the right to know, delete, correct, opt out of sale or sharing, and limit the use of sensitive personal information. To make a request, use the contact address on this page. You may use an authorised agent where the law allows it. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights.

Children

Gadjet is a general-audience site and is not directed to children under 13 (or the higher minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided personal data, contact us so we can address it.

Security and changes

The site is served over HTTPS and is built as a static site with no database or login. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we keep the dependency surface small and review security headers.

We may update this notice when the service or the law changes. The date at the top shows the latest version. Material changes will be announced on the site before they take effect.
