Privacy Policy
Your privacy is important to us. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it and how we protect it. Toolkit is designed with privacy-first principles.
1. Overview
This Privacy Policy applies to Toolkit ("we", "our", "the Service") operated by Black Cat Artist Studio at toolkit.blackcatartiststudio.com. It describes how we collect, use and protect information when you visit and use our Service.
Toolkit is built with a privacy-first approach. All our tools (QR Code Generator, Barcode Generator, Invoice Generator and Purchase Order Generator) process data entirely in your browser. We never see, access or store the content you create with our tools.
2. Data We May Collect
When you visit Toolkit, our web server and third-party services may automatically collect limited technical information:
- IP Address — Used for security, fraud prevention and geographic analytics. Automatically logged by web servers.
- Browser Type & Version — Used for compatibility analysis.
- Operating System — Used to understand user devices.
- Pages Visited & Time Spent — Collected via Google Analytics to understand which tools are most used.
- Referring URL — The page that linked you to Toolkit, used to understand traffic sources.
- Device Type — Desktop, tablet or mobile, used for responsive design improvements.
This technical data is anonymous, does not personally identify you and is used solely to improve the Service.
3. Tool Data — What We Do NOT Collect
This is the most important section. All tool processing happens in your browser using JavaScript. The following data is never transmitted to our servers:
- QR code content (URLs, text, WiFi passwords, contact details)
- Barcode values you enter
- Invoice details (company names, client information, amounts, bank details)
- Purchase order details (vendor information, SKU codes, item prices)
- Logos or images you upload
- Any text you type into any tool field
When you close the browser tab, all tool data is permanently cleared from your device's memory. We have no technical ability to access your tool data.
4. Cookies
Toolkit itself does not set any cookies for tool functionality. However, third-party services we use (Google AdSense and Google Analytics) may set cookies on your browser:
- Google AdSense Cookies — Used to serve relevant advertisements based on your browsing history.
- Google Analytics Cookies — Used to track anonymous page views and session data.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse or delete cookies. Note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of some features.
5. Google AdSense
Toolkit displays advertisements through Google AdSense to support the free Service. Google AdSense may use cookies and web beacons to serve ads based on your interests and browsing history across websites.
Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and other sites on the Internet. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting:
- Google Ad Settings — Opt out of personalized ads
- Digital Advertising Alliance — Opt out of interest-based ads
For more information on Google's privacy practices, visit Google Privacy Policy.
6. Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use Toolkit. Google Analytics collects anonymous information such as how often users visit the site, which pages they visit and what other sites they used prior to visiting. We use this information to improve the Service.
Google Analytics data is anonymous — it does not identify individual users. IP addresses are anonymized before being sent to Google. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
7. Third-Party JavaScript Libraries
Toolkit loads the following JavaScript libraries from third-party CDNs (Content Delivery Networks) to power our tools:
- qrcode-generator from jsdelivr.net — For QR code generation (runs in browser, no data sent)
- JsBarcode from jsdelivr.net — For barcode generation (runs in browser, no data sent)
These CDN providers may log your IP address when loading library files. The library code itself runs entirely in your browser — your tool data is not transmitted to CDN providers.
8. Children's Privacy
Toolkit is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information through our Service, please contact us at info@blackcatartiststudio.com and we will take steps to remove such information.
9. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:
- Right to Access — Request information about what data we hold about you
- Right to Erasure — Request deletion of your data (note: we hold only anonymous analytics data)
- Right to Object — Object to processing of your data for advertising purposes
- Right to Opt-Out — Opt out of Google AdSense personalized ads via Google Ad Settings
Since Toolkit does not collect personally identifiable information through tool usage, most data rights requests are automatically fulfilled by design. For analytics data, contact us or use Google's opt-out tools.
10. Security
We take reasonable measures to protect the Service and any data associated with it. Our website is served over HTTPS (SSL/TLS encryption) to protect data in transit. Since tool data never leaves your browser, the risk of data breach from our tools is minimal.
However, no method of internet transmission is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security of information transmitted to or from our website.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, operational or regulatory reasons. We will post the updated policy on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date.
We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically. Continued use of the Service after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
