Privacy Policy

Effective Date: 19 July 2026

At Project OpenCraft, your privacy is one of our core principles. We believe software should respect its users, not exploit them. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit projectopencraft.org or use any applications developed by Project OpenCraft.

Our Principles

Project OpenCraft is built around four simple principles:

  • Privacy First

  • Free Forever

  • No Ads

  • Transparency

We design our products to collect as little information as possible.

Information We Collect

Information You Provide

We only collect information that you voluntarily provide, such as when you:

  • Contact us via email

  • Submit a bug report

  • Request a feature

  • Make a donation

  • Send feedback

This information may include:

  • Name

  • Email address

  • Message contents

  • Any attachments you choose to send

Information Collected Automatically

Our website is designed to minimize data collection.

Depending on the services used, limited technical information may be processed by our hosting provider, including:

  • Browser type

  • Operating system

  • Device type

  • IP address

  • Date and time of access

  • Requested pages

This information is used solely for maintaining website security and performance.

No Advertising

Project OpenCraft does not display advertisements on its website or in its applications.

We do not use:

  • Google Ads

  • Facebook Ads

  • Third-party advertising SDKs

  • Advertising identifiers

No Tracking

We do not intentionally track users across websites.

Where possible, we avoid:

  • Cross-site tracking

  • Behavioral profiling

  • Fingerprinting

  • Marketing analytics

If we introduce privacy-friendly analytics in the future, they will be used only to understand overall website performance and will not identify individual users.

Cookies

Project OpenCraft does not use cookies for advertising or user profiling.

Essential cookies may be used only when necessary for:

  • Website functionality

  • Security

  • User preferences (such as theme selection)

Mobile Applications

Each Project OpenCraft application follows the same privacy-first philosophy.

Unless explicitly stated, our apps do not collect:

  • Personal information

  • Contacts

  • Photos

  • Messages

  • Call logs

  • Location

  • Microphone recordings

  • Camera data (except when required for app functionality and only while in use)

Permissions requested by an app are used solely for their intended functionality.

Third-Party Services

Some apps or website features may use trusted third-party services when necessary, such as:

  • GitHub (source code and releases)

  • Payment providers for donations

  • Cloud hosting providers

  • App distribution platforms

These services have their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them.

Data Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction.

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure.

Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to:

  • Respond to inquiries

  • Resolve support requests

  • Comply with legal obligations

  • Maintain records where required

When information is no longer needed, it is securely deleted whenever reasonably possible.

Children's Privacy

Project OpenCraft does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age required by applicable law without appropriate consent.

If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us so we can promptly remove it.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

  • Access your personal information

  • Correct inaccurate information

  • Request deletion of your data

  • Object to certain processing

  • Withdraw consent where applicable

To exercise these rights, contact us using the email below.

Open Source

Many Project OpenCraft applications are open source or built using open-source technologies. Transparency is an important part of our commitment to user trust.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect improvements, legal requirements, or changes to our services.

The updated version will always be published on this page with a revised effective date.
