To enhance performance and protect our website, we use Cloudflare as a reverse proxy and CDN (Content Delivery Network). Cloudflare may temporarily log IP addresses and request headers solely for security and anti-DDoS purposes. These logs are automatically purged and are not used for tracking.
For anonymous visitor analytics, we use Umami, a privacy-first, open-source analytics platform. Umami does not collect personally identifiable information (PII), does not use cookies, and does not track users across websites. All data collected is anonymous and used solely for internal performance evaluation.

All uploaded files are processed either locally in your browser or temporarily on our servers.
We do not store, view, analyze, or share your files with anyone.
Unless otherwise stated:

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We do not use cookies for analytics. Our site uses Umami Analytics, which is privacy-friendly and does not set any tracking cookies.
Some essential cookies may be used for functionality (e.g. dark mode or language settings), but no marketing or cross-site tracking cookies are used.
Types of cookies we use:
- Essential: Required for basic functionality
