Privacy policy

1. Who is responsible

The website FixLines is operated by [to be completed], [to be completed] (“we”, “us”).

We are the controller of the personal data described in this policy. You can contact us at [to be completed] with any question about privacy or to exercise your rights.

2. Summary

The text you type, paste or open in the tools is processed only in your browser. It is not sent to us or to anyone else. We do not use cookies, analytics, advertising or tracking. The only personal data we process is technical data that arises when your browser requests a page, and messages you choose to send us.

3. Text you enter into the tools

All tools run locally in your browser, using code that is downloaded when you open a page. The text you type, paste, drop or open from a file stays in the memory of your device. We do not receive it, we cannot see it and we do not store it. Closing or reloading the page deletes it.

Because we neither receive this text nor have access to it, you remain responsible for the text and for any personal data it contains.

4. Personal data we process

When you visit the website, the server that delivers it automatically processes the following data:

• your IP address;
• the date and time of the request;
• the address of the requested page and the HTTP status code;
• the amount of data transferred;
• the address of the website you came from (referrer), if your browser sends it;
• the type and version of your browser, your operating system and the type of device, as reported by your browser (user agent).

Purpose and legal basis: we process this data to deliver the website to you, to keep it secure and stable, to detect and prevent abuse, and to fix errors. The legal basis is our legitimate interest in operating a secure and working website (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Retention: server log data is kept only for as long as it is needed for these purposes, in line with the retention settings of our hosting provider, and is then deleted or anonymised.

We do not combine this data with other data to identify you, and we do not use it to create profiles.

5. Messages you send us

If you contact us by email, we process your email address, the content of your message and any other information you give us, in order to answer you.

The legal basis is our legitimate interest in answering enquiries (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR) or, where your message concerns a contract or steps taken before one, Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. We keep the correspondence for as long as needed to deal with your request and any follow-up questions, and for longer only where the law requires us to keep it.

Please do not include confidential or sensitive information in a message. A short made-up example is enough to describe a problem.

6. Cookies and browser storage

We do not set cookies. To remember the choices you make, the website stores a few small items in the local storage and session storage of your browser: your editor settings, the order of your tools, your theme and whether you dismissed the language notice. To load faster and work offline, your browser also keeps copies of the website’s own files (its pages, scripts, styles and icons) in its cache storage. These items are created by your own actions or by visiting the website, stay on your device and are never sent to us. The full list is in our notice called Cookies and browser storage.

Because this storage is limited to what is needed to provide the features you ask for, we do not show a cookie banner. If we ever add anything else, such as analytics, we will ask for your consent first and update this policy.

7. Who receives your data

We use Vercel Inc. to host this website. Vercel Inc. processes the server data described above on our behalf, under a data processing agreement in line with Article 28 GDPR.

We do not sell your data and we do not share it with advertisers or data brokers. We disclose data to authorities only where we are legally required to do so.

8. Transfers outside the EEA and the UK

If our hosting provider processes data in a country outside the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, the transfer is protected by an adequacy decision, by standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission or the competent UK authority, or by another safeguard permitted by law.

9. Your rights

Under the GDPR and similar laws you have the right to:

• access the personal data we hold about you (Article 15 GDPR);
• have inaccurate data corrected (Article 16);
• have your data erased (Article 17);
• have the processing of your data restricted (Article 18);
• receive your data in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format (Article 20);
• object to processing that is based on legitimate interests (Article 21);
• withdraw a consent you have given, at any time, without affecting the processing that took place before (Article 7(3)).

To exercise a right, write to us at [to be completed]. We may need to verify your identity, and we will reply within one month. Because we do not link server logs to individuals, we may be unable to identify your data in them without additional information.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority, in particular in the EU or EEA country where you live or work or where an alleged infringement took place. In the United Kingdom, this is the Information Commissioner’s Office.

10. Automated decisions

We do not make decisions based solely on automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects, and we do not carry out profiling.

11. Security

We use HTTPS to protect data sent between your browser and our servers, and we limit access to server data to what is necessary. Because your text never leaves your browser, it is not exposed to our servers.

12. Children

This website is not directed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe that a child has sent us personal data, contact us and we will delete it.

13. California and other US state privacy rights

We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act, as amended, and we do not use sensitive personal information to infer characteristics about you. Residents of certain US states may have the right to know, delete and correct their personal information. You can exercise these rights by writing to [to be completed]. We will not discriminate against you for exercising them.

14. Links to other websites

This website may link to other websites. We are not responsible for their content or their privacy practices.

15. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy when our practices or the law change. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised. If a change is significant, we will make it clearly visible on the website.

16. Language

This policy is written in English. Where a translation is provided, it is for convenience only, and the English version prevails if the two differ.
