Welcome to TextToGutenberg (the "Platform" or "Website"), operated by Amila Udara. We are highly committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring your personal data is handled transparently and securely.

This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, process, and protect your information when you visit and use our web generator utility at texttogutenberg.com. By using the platform, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

1. Information We Collect

We do not require users to register accounts, choose passwords, or provide personal details (such as names or physical addresses) to perform block conversions.

However, to operate our service effectively, we process the following types of data:

• Submitted Article Content: Any draft, markdown, or plain text you paste into our configuration box is securely routed to our server-side API proxy. This input content is processed in real-time memory and is never saved, archived, or stored permanently on our databases.
• Usage Limit Statistics: To enforce our 5-times daily limit, we store local preference parameters in your browser's local storage environment. This storage mechanism does not link your device to any personally identifiable information.
• Device and Usage Information: We may collect non-personal data such as browser type, operating system, referrer URL, IP address, and request time-stamps to ensure network security and prevent system abuse.

2. Cookies, Analytics, and Third-Party Advertising

We utilize cookies and similar browser tracking technologies to improve site navigation, preserve interface selections (such as primary and secondary color selections), and analyze traffic patterns. Please refer to our Cookie Policy for details.

Google Analytics 4 (GA4): We use Google Analytics 4 to collect anonymized data about how visitors interact with our platform — including pages visited, session duration, and general device/browser information. Google Analytics is loaded only after you explicitly accept cookies via our Cookie Consent Banner. If you decline cookies, Google Analytics will not be activated. You can opt out at any time by clearing your browser's local storage or using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Google AdSense & Third-Party Ad Networks: We display advertisements on our platform served by Google AdSense. Google utilizes cookies (such as the DART cookie) to serve relevant advertisements based on your visits to our platform and other websites on the internet. These advertising cookies may be set even if you have not accepted our cookie banner, as they are governed by Google's own consent policies. You can manage or opt-out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ad Settings or by using the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out tool.

We do not control the cookies placed by Google AdSense or Google Analytics. Their respective privacy practices are governed by Google's Privacy Policy.

3. Third-Party API Integrations and Data Safety

Our system utilizes advanced Gemini LLM models hosted via the RapidAPI gateway to convert text into responsive block HTML structures.

To secure our developer keys and prevent browser interception, all API queries are routed server-side through a modular PHP proxy (`api.php`). The content you submit is transmitted securely via HTTPS to the RapidAPI gateway solely to execute the design conversion. No third-party API providers are permitted to use your input texts to train artificial intelligence models or store your inputs permanently.

4. Data Retention

Because TextToGutenberg does not utilize persistent user databases for storing generated layouts, your generated output HTML code only persists as long as you keep your browser session active. Once you refresh or close the tab, the inputs and code results are discarded from the client-side active state.

5. CCPA and GDPR Data Protection Rights

Depending on your geographical region, you may hold rights regarding your personal data. These rights include:

• The Right to Access: Since we do not store personal data or inputs, we have no personal data databases to share with you.
• The Right to Erasure: You can wipe all local preferences and conversion histories from your device instantly by clearing your browser's cookies and local storage database.
• The Right to Object: You can opt-out of cookie tracking using our built-in Cookie Consent Banner or via manual browser settings.

6. Children's Privacy

Our services do not target, collect, or store information from children under the age of 13. If you believe your child has submitted personal details on our contact forms, please contact us immediately, and we will delete the communications promptly from our records.

7. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" timestamp. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed.
