Privacy Policy.

Last updated: January 2025

1. Introduction

wordcountergo.com ("we", "our", "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our word counter tool and website at wordcountergo.com.

Our word counter is designed with privacy as a core principle. All text processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Your text never leaves your device. We do not store, transmit, or have access to any text you paste, type, or upload into the word counter tool.

2. Information We Collect

We collect minimal information to operate and improve our website:

  • Usage Data: Anonymous page view statistics collected via our hosting provider to understand which pages are visited.
  • Local Storage: We use your browser's local storage to save your theme preference (dark/light mode), language selection, and the text you were working on. This data stays on your device and is never sent to our servers.
  • Google Fonts: When you load our website, your browser may request fonts from Google Fonts servers, which may collect your IP address. See Google's Privacy Policy for details.

3. Information We Do NOT Collect

We want to be completely transparent about what we do not collect:

  • We do not collect or store any text you enter into the word counter.
  • We do not have user accounts, so we never collect names, emails, or passwords.
  • We do not use third-party analytics services like Google Analytics.
  • We do not sell, rent, or share any personal information.
  • We do not use tracking pixels or fingerprinting technologies.

4. How We Use Your Information

The limited information we collect is used solely for:

  • Providing and maintaining the word counter service.
  • Improving website performance and user experience.
  • Remembering your preferences (theme, language) between visits.

5. Data Storage and Security

Your text is stored only in your browser's local storage if you choose to save it. This data remains on your device and can be cleared at any time by clearing your browser's local data. We implement industry-standard security measures to protect our website, though no internet transmission is 100% secure.

6. Third-Party Services

Our website uses the following third-party services:

7. Advertising

We may display advertisements served by Google AdSense and other third-party ad networks. These ads may use cookies and web beacons to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites.

  • Google AdSense: Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) to serve ads based on your visits to this site and other sites on the internet. You can learn more about Google's advertising practices and opt out of personalized advertising at Google's Ad Settings.
  • Cookie Usage: Ad networks may place cookies on your browser for ad personalization and frequency capping. These cookies are controlled by the ad networks and are subject to their own privacy policies.
  • Opting Out: You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page or using the Google Ads Settings page.

We are committed to providing a positive user experience and will ensure ads are non-intrusive and clearly marked as advertisements.

8. Children's Privacy

Our service is available to all users, including children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from any user, regardless of age. As all text processing is done locally, no user data is transmitted to our servers.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
