Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2024

At Password-Gen.dev, your privacy is our top priority. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data.

1. Information We Collect

No personal data required.

We do not ask for, store, or require any personal information such as names, emails, or passwords to use our services.

Password Generation: All password and passphrase generation is performed locally in your browser. Generated passwords are never transmitted to our servers or stored anywhere.

Server Logs: Our web servers automatically log standard information such as your IP address, browser type, referring/exit pages, and timestamps for security and analytics. These logs are deleted after a predefined retention period.

2. Cookies & Local Storage

Password-Gen.dev does not use cookies for tracking, advertising, or personalization purposes beyond what is necessary for basic functionality.

Some features may use browser local storage to remember your password generation preferences and settings. This data remains entirely on your device and is not accessible by us or third parties.

3. Analytics

We may use privacy-friendly analytics tools (such as Plausible, Fathom, or a privacy-centric configuration of Google Analytics) to understand aggregate website usage patterns.

These tools do not collect or store personal identifiers. All data is anonymized and aggregated, used only to improve our password generation services and user experience.

4. Advertising and Third-Party Services

Password-Gen.dev may display advertisements via third-party networks (e.g., Google AdSense). These partners may use cookies or device identifiers to display relevant ads and measure performance.

You can learn more about these practices and opt-out via your browser's privacy settings or through the Digital Advertising Alliance's opt-out tools.

We carefully select partners who comply with major privacy regulations (GDPR, CCPA, ePrivacy Directive).

5. Data Security & Retention

We implement industry-standard security measures to safeguard our server infrastructure and control access to any data we process.

Server Logs: Retained for up to 14 days for security and diagnostic purposes, then automatically deleted.

Analytics Data: If used, stored for a maximum of 14 months in anonymized form.

Generated Passwords: Never stored on our servers - all generation happens locally in your browser.

6. International Data Transfers

As a global service, information may be processed or stored on servers in multiple jurisdictions. We take all reasonable measures to comply with applicable data protection laws, including GDPR and other regional privacy regulations.

7. Your Rights

Under applicable privacy laws, you have the right to:

  • Request access to any information we hold about you
  • Request correction or deletion of your data (though we typically store minimal data)
  • Object to processing of your personal data
  • Request data portability where applicable
  • Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent

If you have any privacy concerns or wish to exercise these rights, please contact us using the information provided on our Imprint page.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as needed to reflect changes in our practices, technology, legal requirements, or other factors.

The latest version will always be available on this page. Significant changes will be noted at the top of this policy with an updated "Last updated" date.
