Privacy Policy
At Word Online, accessible from https://wordonline.online, one of our main priorities is the privacy of our visitors. This Privacy Policy document outlines the types of personal information that is received, collected, and recorded by Word Online and how we use it.
1. Log Files
Like most standard website servers, Word Online follows a standard procedure of using log files. These files log visitors when they access our web applications. The information collected by log files includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamp, referring/exit pages, and possibly the number of clicks. These are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable. The purpose of the information is for analyzing trends, administering the site, tracking users' movement around the website, and gathering demographic information.
2. Document Data & In-Browser Processing
Our online writing tools, Word Counter, and browser-based editors are engineered with a strict privacy-first architecture. Text entered into our editor, document uploads, and conversion tasks are processed directly in your browser's local sandbox or temporary memory. We do not inspect, retain, sell, or claim ownership over any documents, texts, or files processed through our tools.
