Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2026

01

Data Collection

We collect absolutely zero personally identifiable information (PII) directly. CleanStopwatch does not require user accounts, does not set first-party tracking cookies, and does not log your activity.

When loading widgets, standard server-side CDN logging (provided by Cloudflare) records anonymous network metrics (such as IP address, user agent, and referrer URL) purely to prevent abuse and measure aggregate daily embed usage counts. These logs are not sold, shared, or used for profiling.

02

Cookies

We do not use first-party tracking cookies. To keep our minimalist tools free for everyone, we partner with third-party networks (like Google AdSense) to serve advertisements, which may utilize cookies. Google's use of advertising cookies allows it and its partners to serve ads based on visits to this and other sites.

You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ad Settings .

03

Local Storage

Timer preferences (theme, accent color, sound, duration, presets) are saved locally in your browser's localStorage. This data never leaves your device unless you explicitly choose to sync presets via your Pro license key.

04

Third-Party Services

CleanStopwatch uses the following third-party services, each governed by their own privacy policies:

  • Cloudflare (CDN, DNS, security)
  • Google AdSense (advertising)
  • Polar.sh (payment and license key processing)
05

Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction (including GDPR and CCPA), you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your data. Since we collect no personal data directly, any such requests should be directed to the third-party services listed above.
