Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 16, 2024

Our Privacy-First Approach

CrankSmith is designed with privacy as a core principle. We believe that you should be able to use professional cycling tools without compromising your personal data or privacy.

What We Don't Collect

We are proud to say that CrankSmith does not collect, store, or process any personal data, including:

• Personal information (name, email, address)
• Bike configurations or calculations
• Usage patterns or analytics
• Location data
• Device information
• IP addresses (beyond basic server logs)

How Our Tools Work

All calculations performed by CrankSmith happen locally in your browser. Your data never leaves your device, ensuring complete privacy and security.

Local Storage

We may use your browser's local storage to save your preferences (like theme settings) and bike configurations for your convenience. This data stays on your device and is not transmitted to our servers.

Third-Party Services

CrankSmith may use the following third-party services that have their own privacy policies:

Analytics

We use Vercel Analytics to understand how our website is used. This service collects anonymous usage statistics and does not identify individual users.

Hosting

Our website is hosted on Vercel, which may collect basic server logs including IP addresses for security and performance purposes.

Cookies and Tracking

CrankSmith does not use cookies for tracking purposes. We may use essential cookies for functionality (like remembering your theme preference), but these do not track your activity across other websites.

Data Security

Since we don't collect personal data, there's no personal information to secure. However, we implement industry-standard security measures to protect our website and ensure it remains available and secure.

Children's Privacy

CrankSmith is suitable for users of all ages. Since we don't collect personal information, we don't have specific concerns about children's privacy. However, we recommend parental supervision for children under 13.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.

Your Rights

Since we don't collect personal data, there's no personal information to access, modify, or delete. However, you can clear your browser's local storage at any time to remove any saved preferences or configurations.
