Introduction
Tap Code (tap-code.org) provides a free tap code / knock code encoder that runs in your web browser. This policy explains what information we collect and how we use it.
Messages You Encode
We do not store the text you type or the tap code output. Encoding and decoding happen locally in your browser. Your messages are not sent to our servers for processing or saved in a database.
Information We May Collect Automatically
Like most websites, we may collect standard technical data through analytics or server logs, such as:
- IP address (often anonymized)
- Browser type and version
- Pages visited and approximate visit time
- Referring URL
This data helps us understand traffic patterns and keep the site secure. It is not linked to the content of messages you encode.
Cookies and Advertising
We may use cookies for basic site functionality, analytics, or advertising partners. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Third-party ad or analytics providers have their own privacy policies.
Children's Privacy
Tap Code is a general-purpose educational tool. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal data through our site, please contact us.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this page from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent revision.
