Introduction

Welcome to yschin.com. I respect your privacy and am committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy explains how I handle information when you visit my website.

I use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use my site. This includes:

  • Pages you visit
  • Time spent on the site
  • Your approximate location (city/country level)
  • Browser and device information

This data is anonymous and cannot be used to identify you personally.

Tool Usage Data

All tools on this site work entirely in your browser. I do NOT collect, store, or transmit:

  • Text you enter into tools
  • Files you process
  • Generated hashes or formatted data
  • Any personal information

Everything stays on your device. Your data is private and secure.

How I Use Information

I use the analytics data to:

  • Understand which tools and content are most useful

This site uses cookies only for:

  • Google Analytics: To track anonymous usage statistics
  • Google AdSense: Third-party advertising cookies (including Google's) used to serve and personalize ads

Google AdSense

This site may display advertising delivered by Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.

This site is not directed at children under 13. I do not knowingly collect information from children.
