Privacy Policy
At DodoDeck (accessible at https://dododeck.com), we believe that your digital privacy is a fundamental right. We design all our browser productivity tools and Chrome extensions around a strict local-first philosophy. This Privacy Policy details the types of information we process, how we safeguard your data, and how our client-side architecture guarantees your documents and media remain solely under your control.
1. 100% Client-Side Processing (Zero Server File Uploads)
Unlike traditional online file converters that transmit your sensitive documents to remote cloud servers, DodoDeck tools (including the PDF Editor, PDF Tools, Screenshot Viewer, TOTP Authenticator, and QR Code Generator) operate 100% inside your local web browser. All file parsing, document rendering, image annotation, and data generation are executed directly by your computer's browser using HTML5, WebAssembly (WASM), and the Canvas API. Your files, documents, photos, and notes are never uploaded to, processed on, or saved to our servers.
2. Information We Never Collect
To guarantee utmost confidentiality, DodoDeck strictly avoids harvesting personal data:
- We never collect, inspect, or retain the content of the files, PDFs, or images you edit.
- We never record or store your two-factor authentication (TOTP) secret keys or QR payloads.
- We never sell, rent, monetize, or broker your personal information to third parties or data brokers.
- We never use keystroke loggers, invasive browser fingerprinting, or background screen recorders.
3. Information We May Collect
The only instances where information is received by DodoDeck are:
- Direct Inquiries: When you voluntarily submit a message via our Contact form, we receive your name, email address, and message text to respond to your inquiry.
- Optional Account Details: If you choose to create an account for synchronization or Pro features, your basic profile information (such as name and email) is securely encrypted and managed.
- Standard Server Logs: Like all web services, our hosting infrastructure (Cloudflare) automatically records anonymous technical diagnostic logs (e.g., browser type, operating system, and request timestamps) to maintain network stability and fend off DDoS attacks.
4. Cookies & Google AdSense Compliance
To keep our productivity deck free and accessible for millions of users worldwide, we display non-intrusive advertisements served by Google AdSense:
- Google and third-party vendors use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites on the Internet.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to DodoDeck and other sites.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising at any time by visiting Google Ad Settings or via aboutads.info.
5. Local Browser Storage (LocalStorage & IndexedDB)
DodoDeck may use your browser's LocalStorage or IndexedDB solely to remember your UI preferences (such as Light/Dark theme selection) or save in-progress edits locally on your device for your own convenience. This data is stored entirely on your local machine and can be cleared at any time via your browser settings.
6. Chrome Extensions & Web Store Compliance
Our official browser extensions distributed via the Chrome Web Store adhere strictly to the Chrome Web Store Developer Program Policies, including the Single Purpose Policy and Limited Use requirements:
- Our extensions operate locally and only request the specific permissions strictly required for their functionality (e.g., active tab capture for screenshots).
- We do not intercept, collect, or transmit your web browsing history, private credentials, or personal web traffic.
- Extensions are free of hidden ad injectors, crypto miners, or covert analytics tracking.
7. Data Security & Encryption
All traffic between your browser and DodoDeck is encrypted using modern Transport Layer Security (TLS 1.3 / HTTPS) with strict HTTP Strict Transport Security (HSTS) and secure HTTP response headers. Our enterprise CDN infrastructure actively prevents eavesdropping, tampering, and unauthorized data interception.
8. GDPR & CCPA / CPRA Compliance
Whether you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, California, or anywhere else globally, DodoDeck respects your data protection rights. Because we do not store your files on our servers, there is no personal document data for us to retain or erase. You have the right to request clarification, request deletion of any contact correspondence, and opt out of advertising cookies at any time.
9. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)
DodoDeck does not knowingly collect or solicit personal identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information through our contact form, please notify us immediately so we can promptly delete such information.
10. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may periodically update this Privacy Policy to reflect enhancements in our tools, browser capabilities, or legal requirements. Any modifications will be posted directly on this page with the updated revision date below.
