Privacy Policy
Your privacy is paramount. Read our transparent disclosures on local browser execution, cookies, Google Analytics 4, and Google AdSense compliance.
1. Introduction
At Coding Hub (accessible from https://codinghub.dev), we believe that educational and developer utilities should respect user privacy by default. This Privacy Policy outlines the types of information we process, the third-party services we utilize, and the granular controls you have over your data.
If you have questions or require additional clarifications regarding our privacy practices, you can contact our technical team at contact@codinghub.dev.
2. Local Processing of Calculator & Tool Inputs
Unlike typical online tools that transmit user inputs to remote servers, Coding Hub executes all computations—including the CGPA Calculator, Percentage Calculator, Attendance Calculator, JSON Formatter, Word Counter, and Text Case Converter—entirely within your client browser using sandboxed JavaScript.
Your academic grades, semester GPAs, raw JSON payloads, draft documents, and converted text strings are never transmitted to our backend servers, never logged into external databases, and never sold or shared with any third party.
3. Log Files
Like standard web infrastructure, our hosting environment (Vercel) automatically records routine web server log entries when pages are served. These logs include standard diagnostic fields: Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser user-agent strings, referring URLs, timestamps, and HTTP response codes. These server logs are utilized strictly for platform reliability, DDoS mitigation, and uptime monitoring. They are not joined with personal identifying records.
4. Google Analytics 4 & Consent Management
When you grant analytics consent via our Cookie Banner, we utilize Google Analytics 4 to understand aggregate website performance (e.g. which tutorial topics are most read and which tools are frequently launched).
Our Google Analytics 4 configuration enforces privacy best practices:
- IP Anonymization: IP addresses are truncated to safeguard visitor identity.
- Consent-Gated Execution: GA4 scripts only initialize after you click "Accept Analytics" on our consent prompt.
- Zero Payload Tracking: We never log form values, calculation inputs, typed text, or API payloads. Only generalized interaction events (e.g. "tool opened", "calculation completed") are measured.
5. Google AdSense & Third-Party Advertising
To keep all tools and tutorials free for students and developers, Coding Hub supports future monetization via Google AdSense.
Google is a third-party vendor that uses cookies (including the DoubleClick DART cookie) to serve advertisements based upon a user's prior visits to this website and other sites across the internet.
You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings: https://adssettings.google.com/. Alternatively, you can opt out of third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.
6. User Choices & Browser Controls
You have full control over cookie storage. In addition to our built-in consent banner, modern web browsers allow you to block third-party cookies, clear existing cookies, or browse in private/incognito mode:
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and security > Third-party cookies
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Enhanced Tracking Protection
- Apple Safari: Settings > Privacy > Block all cookies / Prevent cross-site tracking
- Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and site permissions
7. GDPR & CCPA Privacy Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction (such as under the European General Data Protection Regulation or California Consumer Privacy Act), you hold specific rights regarding personal data:
- Right to Access: Request copies of personal data retained about you.
- Right to Rectification: Request correction of inaccurate information.
- Right to Erasure: Request deletion of your personal data.
- Right to Restrict or Object: Restrict or object to processing under certain conditions.
- Non-Discrimination: We do not restrict access to any calculators or tools based on your privacy choices.
8. Children's Information (COPPA)
Protecting younger learners is essential. Coding Hub does not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If you believe that a child has provided personal information through our contact channels, please notify us immediately at contact@codinghub.dev and we will promptly remove such records.
