ThreadChaser — Privacy Policy

We respect your privacy. Here is exactly what we do — and don't — collect.

Effective date: Apr 2026  |  Last updated: Apr 2026  |  Version: 1.0

1. Overview

This Privacy Policy explains how ThreadChaser ("Developer," "we," "us," or "our") handles information in connection with threadchaser.com (the "Website"). We are committed to being transparent about our data practices.

Short version: ThreadChaser does not collect, store, or transmit any personal information. The Website runs entirely in your browser — no data you enter is ever sent to us or any third party. However, our hosting provider (GitHub Pages) may collect limited technical data independently under its own policy, as described below.

2. Information We Collect

ThreadChaser does not collect any personal data. Specifically:

3. Data Collected by GitHub Pages

The Website is hosted on GitHub Pages, a service provided by GitHub, Inc. When you visit the Website, GitHub's servers may automatically log standard technical information as part of normal web server operation. This is governed by GitHub's Privacy Statement and is outside our control. This data may include:

We do not have access to this server log data and it is not shared with us by GitHub in identifiable form. You can review GitHub's data practices at GitHub's Privacy Statement.

4. No Accounts, Payments, or Purchases

The Website is free to use and requires no registration or payment. We do not process payments and we never see, receive, store, or handle any financial or billing information.

5. Cookies

The Website does not set any cookies of its own. GitHub Pages may set a minimal session cookie as part of its infrastructure, but this is not used for tracking or advertising and contains no personal information about you.

6. Children's Privacy

ThreadChaser is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or the applicable minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Because the Website collects no personal data at all, no special risk arises. If you have any concerns, please contact us using the details in Section 10.

7. Data Security

Because ThreadChaser does not collect or transmit personal data, there is no personal data stored on our systems that could be subject to a breach. All information you enter on the Website (measurements, settings, preferences) remains entirely within your browser session and is discarded when you close the page.

8. Data Retention

We do not retain any personal data because we do not collect any. The Website stores your last-used settings (such as unit preference and tolerance) in your browser's local memory for convenience during a session only. This data never leaves your device and is cleared when you close the browser tab.

9. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights under applicable privacy laws (such as the GDPR, UK GDPR, Australian Privacy Act, or CCPA) including the right to access, correct, or delete personal data held about you. Because we hold no personal data about Website visitors, there is nothing for us to provide, correct, or delete.

For data held by GitHub (server logs), please exercise your rights directly through GitHub's privacy contact page.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted at this URL with a revised effective date. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Your continued use of the Website after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.

If we ever change our practices in a material way — for example if we introduce analytics or account features — we will update this policy before any such changes take effect.
