Last Updated: August 16, 2025

Introduction

Welcome to Word Counter Pro! We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your data when you use our website and services.

Important: All text processing happens locally in your browser. Your text never leaves your device and is never stored on our servers.

Information We Collect

Word Counter Pro is designed with privacy as a core principle. We collect minimal information to provide and improve our services:

  • Text Input: The text you enter into our tool is processed entirely within your browser. Your content never leaves your device and is never transmitted to our servers.
  • Usage Data: We collect anonymous usage statistics to help us understand how our tool is being used and to identify areas for improvement. This includes information about which features are most popular and general geographic information (country-level).
  • Technical Information: We collect basic technical information such as browser type, operating system, and device type to ensure compatibility and optimize performance.

How We Use Your Information

The limited information we collect is used exclusively to provide and improve our services:

  • Service Delivery: To provide the word counting and text analysis features you request.
  • Improvements: To analyze usage patterns and make improvements to our tool.
  • Security: To detect and prevent security issues and unauthorized access.
  • Communication: To respond to your inquiries if you contact us through our support channels.

Local Processing & Data Security

We prioritize your privacy through our unique local processing approach:

  • Client-Side Processing: All text analysis occurs directly in your browser using JavaScript. Your content is never sent to our servers.
  • No Storage: We do not store any of the text you process in our system. Once you close your browser, all processed text is permanently deleted.
  • Secure Connections: Our website uses HTTPS encryption to protect any information transmitted between your browser and our servers.
  • Minimal Data Collection: We collect only what is necessary to provide our service and improve the user experience.

Cookies and Tracking

We use minimal cookies to enhance your experience:

  • Essential Cookies: Necessary for the website to function properly, such as remembering your dark mode preference.
  • Analytics Technologies: If enabled, these help us understand general website usage and improve the visitor experience.
  • Advertising Technologies: If advertising is enabled, Google and other advertising partners may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver, measure, and protect ads, subject to your consent choices where required.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Where required, a consent message will provide choices for advertising and related technologies. You can also revisit available privacy choices through the consent controls supplied on the website.

Third-Party Services

We may use third-party services for specific functions:

  • Analytics: Services such as Google Analytics may be used to understand general usage patterns when configured and permitted.
  • Advertising: Google AdSense or other advertising partners may provide and measure clearly labeled advertisements. Google explains how it uses information from sites that use its services at Google's partner sites information page.
  • Hosting: Our website is hosted on secure servers provided by reputable hosting companies.

These third parties have their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them. We only share information with third parties as necessary for them to perform their services for us.
