1. Information We Collect

On lumiforge.top, we aim to minimize data collection. We collect information to provide and improve our services, which primarily function client-side within your browser.

a) Information You Provide Directly:

When you use the tools on lumiforge.top, you may input, upload, or paste data (e.g., text, images, code) for processing. This data is processed locally within your browser session whenever technically possible and is not transmitted to or stored on our servers. For specific tools that require server-side processing (e.g., certain file conversions), the data is transmitted temporarily solely to complete the requested operation and is not retained after processing.

b) Automatically Collected Information:

When you visit lumiforge.top, our servers and third-party services may automatically log certain standard data provided by your web browser. This may include your device's Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type and version, the pages you visit on lumiforge.top, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages, and other diagnostic data.

c) Cookies and Usage Data:

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to monitor activity on lumiforge.top and hold certain information to improve user experience. See the "Cookies and Tracking Technologies" section for details.

2. How We Use Your Information

The information we collect on lumiforge.top is used for the following purposes:

• To Provide and Maintain Services: To operate the free online tools, process your requests (like file conversions or calculations), and deliver functionality.
• To Improve Our Services: To analyze aggregated, non-personal usage trends to understand how users interact with our tools, identify errors, and enhance performance, features, and user interface.
• To Ensure Security: To monitor for misuse, fraud, security threats, and malicious activity to protect the integrity of lumiforge.top and its users.
• For Communication: To respond to your inquiries sent to [email protected] and provide user support.
• For Legal Compliance: To comply with applicable laws, regulations, and legal processes.

3. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

lumiforge.top uses cookies and similar tracking technologies. Cookies are small files placed on your device to collect standard internet log information and visitor behavior data.

Types of Cookies We Use:

• Essential Cookies: Necessary for the basic functions of lumiforge.top, such as remembering your cookie preferences. lumiforge.top cannot function properly without these cookies.
• Analytics Cookies: These cookies, often from third-party services like Google Analytics, help us understand how visitors engage with lumiforge.top. They collect aggregated data on page visits, traffic sources, and tool usage. This information is anonymous and does not identify individual users.
• Preference Cookies: Used to remember your settings and preferences for lumiforge.top, such as language or theme selection, to improve your future visits.

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept essential cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our services. Most browsers provide controls to manage cookie settings.

4. Data Security Measures

We implement commercially reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect your data. These include encryption (HTTPS/SSL) for data in transit and strict access controls. As most tool processing occurs client-side in your browser, your input data often never leaves your device. For server-processed data, we use temporary, secure processing environments and do not retain the data after the tool operation is complete. While we strive to protect your information, no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Third-Party Services

lumiforge.top utilizes third-party services for specific functions, such as web analytics (e.g., Google Analytics) and hosting infrastructure. These third parties have access to the automatically collected information (like IP address) only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose. We encourage you to review the Privacy Policies of these third-party providers. Their practices are not covered by this Privacy Policy.

• Access and Portability: You can request details about the personal data we hold about you.
• Correction and Deletion: You can request correction or deletion of your personal data.
• Opt-Out of Analytics: You can opt-out of Google Analytics tracking using browser add-ons or by adjusting cookie settings on lumiforge.top.
• Cookie Controls: Manage your cookie preferences through our cookie consent banner or your browser settings.

To exercise these rights, please contact us at [email protected]. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe.
