Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how TextLens ("we", "us", or "Service Provider") collects, uses, and shares information when you use the textlens.org web application (the "Application"). By using the Application, you agree to the practices described here.

  • The operating system of your device
  • Referring URLs (the page that linked you to our site)

The Application does not collect precise geographic location data, nor does it require account registration to use its core features.

Artificial Intelligence Features

The Application features optional Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies to provide features such as semantic text and table analysis/insights. When you use these AI-powered features, the text content you submit may be processed to generate responses.

We do not store the content you submit for AI analysis beyond what is necessary to process your request. AI processing is performed in accordance with this privacy policy and applicable laws.

  • Detect and prevent abuse or fraudulent activity
  • Comply with legal obligations
  • Send you important notices or updates (if you have provided contact information)

Advertising — Google AdSense

The Application uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google AdSense may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our site or other websites.

Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to the Application and/or other websites on the Internet. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ad Settings.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

The Application and its third-party partners (including Google AdSense) may use cookies, web beacons, and similar tracking technologies to collect information about your browsing behaviour. Cookies are small data files stored on your device.

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, some portions of the Application may not function correctly.

Third-Party Access

Only aggregated, anonymised data may be shared with external services to help us improve the Application. We may share your information with third parties only in the following circumstances:

  • As required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or government request
  • When we believe disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, your safety, or the safety of others
  • To investigate or prevent fraud
  • With trusted service providers who act on our behalf, are bound by confidentiality obligations, and have no independent right to use the information beyond providing services to us

Data Retention

We retain automatically collected usage data for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, after which it is deleted or anonymised. If you have submitted personal information and would like it removed, please contact us at [email protected] and we will respond within a reasonable time.

You can stop all data collection by simply leaving and not using the Application. You may also:

  • Clear cookies and browsing data through your browser settings
  • Use your browser's private/incognito mode to limit data retention
  • Opt out of personalised ads via Google Ad Settings

Children's Privacy

The Application is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. If we learn that a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, we will delete it immediately from our servers.

Security

We take the security of your information seriously and implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect it from unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We encourage you to review this page periodically. Continued use of the Application after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
