Privacy Policy

1Who We Are & Scope

printablegraphpaper.app is a free, single-page web tool that generates customizable, printable graph paper as PDF files. This policy applies to this website only. It does not cover any external sites we link to, which have their own privacy policies.

2The Tool Itself

The core function is fully client-side:

• You pick a grid type, spacing, colors, paper size, and orientation.
• The preview is drawn in your browser using the Canvas API.
• The PDF is built in your browser using the jsPDF library and saved directly to your device.

Your settings and generated files are never transmitted to or stored on any server we control. No login or personal information is required to use the tool.

3Information We Collect

We do not ask for or directly collect personal information such as your name or email. The limited data involved comes from the services that run the Site:

Usage analytics

None. We do not use Google Analytics or any other analytics service, and we set no cookies of our own.

Advertising

Google AdSense may use cookies and similar technologies to serve and measure ads, and (where permitted by law and by your choices) to personalize them. For visitors in the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, Google shows its own consent message and serves personalized ads only if you agree.

Server logs

Our host, Vercel, and the content delivery networks that serve code libraries automatically process standard request data (such as IP address, requested URL, and timestamp) to deliver the Site and protect against abuse. This is a normal part of how the web works.

4Cookies & Advertising Choices

The Site itself sets no cookies. The only cookies you may encounter come from Google AdSense, which uses them to serve and measure ads and, where permitted, to show ads based on your interests. In the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, Google asks for your consent before doing so. Everywhere, you can turn off personalized ads at Google Ads Settings or through the industry opt-out pages listed in Section 5.

5Third-Party Services

The Site relies on the following providers. Each processes data under its own privacy policy:

• Vercel — hosts the website and processes standard server logs. See Vercel’s Privacy Policy.
• Google AdSense — advertising. Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on prior visits. Manage your preferences at Google Ads Settings, and learn more in How Google uses information from sites that use its services.
• jsPDF (CDN) — the PDF library is loaded from public content delivery networks (cdnjs / jsDelivr / unpkg). These CDNs may log the request (e.g. IP address) to deliver the file.

You can opt out of personalized advertising from many vendors at aboutads.info/choices (US) or youronlinechoices.eu (EU).

6Legal Bases (GDPR)

If you are in the European Economic Area or the UK, our legal bases for processing are:

• Consent — for personalized advertising, collected by Google’s consent message (you may withdraw it at any time).
• Legitimate interests — for basic server logs needed to deliver the Site securely and reliably.

7Your Rights & Choices

Depending on where you live (e.g. under the GDPR or the California CCPA/CPRA), you may have the right to:

• Access, correct, or delete personal data held about you;
• Restrict or object to certain processing;
• Withdraw consent for personalized advertising at any time;
• Opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information — note that we do not sell your personal information;
• Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

Because we don’t maintain accounts or directly identify visitors, most data is controlled through the third-party tools above — the opt-out links in Section 5 are the most direct way to exercise these choices. You can also contact us (Section 13).

8International Data Transfers

Our providers (Vercel, Google) are global and may process data on servers located in the United States and other countries. These companies rely on recognized safeguards, such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses, for international transfers.

9Data Retention

We do not store personal data ourselves. Any advertising data is retained by Google according to Google’s own retention policies. Server logs held by our host and CDNs are kept for limited periods per their respective policies.

10Children’s Privacy

This tool is suitable for all ages and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children, and we run no analytics.

11Do Not Track

We run no analytics and set no cookies of our own, so there is nothing for a “Do Not Track” signal to switch off on our side. We do not currently forward the signal to Google; use the ad-preference links in Sections 4 and 5 to control advertising cookies.

12Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected here with a revised “Last updated” date at the top of the page.

13Contact

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or your data, you can reach us at websiteaftersales@gmail.com. We aim to respond to legitimate requests promptly.
