Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

Floating Teleprompter (“we”, “us”, “our”) is a free, client-side web application operated by Shrestha Tripathi. We act as the data controller for the limited, non-content data described below. For any privacy question or request, contact shrestha.tripathi@gmail.com.

2. Your script never leaves your device

Floating Teleprompter is a fully client-side app. The script you paste or type, plus your settings (speed, font size, mirror mode, etc.), are stored locally in your browser using local storage, a standard on-device mechanism. Your script content:

• is never transmitted to us or to any server;
• is never stored, backed up, or processed on our infrastructure;
• cannot be read by us, because we never receive it;
• stays on your device until you clear it or your browser data.

There is no server-side account, database, or sync. The entire app is static files served from a content-delivery network. You can verify this in the open-source code or by watching your browser's Network tab while you use the prompter.

3. Information we do process

To run and improve the website, a limited amount of standard, non-content data is processed:

• Anonymous analytics. We use Google Analytics 4 to count page views and understand broad usage (e.g. which pages are popular, rough country, device type). This is aggregate and anonymized — it is never linked to your script, which we don't have access to.
• Server logs. Our hosting/CDN provider (Cloudflare) may automatically log standard request metadata such as IP address and user-agent for security and abuse-prevention, as is typical for any website.

4. Cookies and similar technologies

Floating Teleprompter itself does not use cookies to track you. We use your browser's local storage only to remember your own script and preferences (such as your theme choice) — never for tracking.

Third-party services we load may set cookies:

• Google Analytics sets cookies to measure aggregate usage. See Google's Privacy Policy.
• Advertising (if shown). We may display ads served by Google AdSense. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies (such as the DART cookie) to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits. You can opt out of personalized advertising via Google Ads Settings, or opt out of some third-party vendors' cookies at aboutads.info/choices.

5. Third-party services

We rely on a small set of reputable providers: Cloudflare (hosting and content delivery), Google Analytics (anonymous usage measurement), and potentially Google AdSense (advertising). Each processes data under its own privacy policy. We do not sell your personal information.

6. Your rights (GDPR & CCPA)

Because your script lives only on your device, you already have complete control: you can view, edit, or permanently delete it at any time, directly in the app. For the limited analytics data processed by our providers, and depending on your jurisdiction (e.g. the EU/UK under GDPR, or California under the CCPA), you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data, and to object to it.

To exercise any of these rights, email shrestha.tripathi@gmail.com. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

7. Children's privacy

Floating Teleprompter is a general-audience utility and is not directed at children under 13. Since we collect no personal content, none is knowingly collected from children.

8. International data transfers

Our providers (Cloudflare, Google) operate globally and may process the limited non-content data described above on servers outside your country, under their own safeguards and standard contractual clauses.

9. Data retention

Your script stays on your device until you delete it. Aggregate analytics are retained by Google Analytics under its standard retention settings; CDN security logs are short-lived per Cloudflare's policy.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by the “Last updated” date above. Continued use of Floating Teleprompter after a change constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
