Privacy Policy
The final legal text for this page is being prepared and will be reviewed before the site is promoted publicly. What you read below is an accurate description of how the site currently works.
This policy describes how DocBengal (“we”, “the site”) handles information when you use our website and tools. It is a working draft and will be finalized before the site is promoted publicly; the description below accurately reflects how the site works today.
1. Files you process with our tools
All document, image and text tools on DocBengal run entirely in your web browser using client-side JavaScript. The files you select and the results they produce are processed on your own device. They are never uploaded to our servers, because we do not operate file servers. When you close the page, we have no copy of anything you processed.
2. Standard server logs
Like nearly all websites, our hosting provider processes standard technical request data — such as your IP address, browser type and the pages you request — for security, abuse prevention and site delivery. We do not use this data to profile you or to track you across other sites.
3. Cookies and local storage
We currently set no tracking cookies. The only thing we store on your device is your theme preference (light or dark mode) in browser local storage, so the site remembers your choice. You can clear this at any time through your browser settings.
4. Advertising
We plan to display advertising through Google AdSense to keep the site free. Advertising is currently disabled; nothing below applies until ads are actually switched on, at which point this policy will be updated.
When enabled: third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of third-party vendor cookies at aboutads.info.
5. Analytics
We do not currently run any analytics service. If we add one in the future, this policy will be updated first and the analytics will be disclosed here.
6. Contact information
If you contact us by email, we use your address only to respond to your message. We do not add contacts to mailing lists or share addresses.
7. Children’s privacy
The site is a general-audience tool website. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13, and there is no account system through which such information could be provided.
8. Changes to this policy
Any changes will be published on this page. When advertising or analytics is introduced, this policy will be revised before that feature goes live.
