How QANEN handles your privacy.

The short version

QANEN collects as little information as possible. Our tools run on your device, we do not ask for an account, and we never sell your data. Like most websites, we use a small number of cookies — including cookies set by Google for advertising — which this page explains in full.

Who we are

This website (qanen.site) is operated by QANEN, a next-generation technology company. This privacy policy covers the qanen.site corporate website. Individual products may link to their own sites, which have their own practices. For any privacy question, email hello@qanen.site.

Information we collect

We keep collection to the minimum needed to run and improve the site:

• Analytics data — aggregate, statistical information about how the site is used (pages visited, approximate region, device and browser type), collected through Firebase Analytics / Google Analytics using cookies.
• Advertising data — cookies and identifiers set by Google AdSense and its ad partners to serve and measure ads (see the advertising section below).
• Information you give us — if you email us, we receive the message and address you choose to send. We do not require you to register or provide personal details to browse the site.

Cookies and similar technologies

A cookie is a small text file stored by your browser. We use strictly necessary cookies to make the site work, and — only with your consent — analytics and advertising cookies. When you first visit, a cookie banner asks you to accept or reject non-essential cookies; your choice is remembered and can be revisited by clearing your browser's cookies for this site. No cookie is essential to use our tools.

Advertising and Google AdSense

QANEN uses Google AdSense to help monetise this website. Third-party ad servers and ad networks use cookies and similar technologies to deliver the ads shown on this site, and they may use your IP address and information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertising about products and services relevant to you.

Google and its partners may use cookies — sometimes referred to as the "DART cookie" — to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website and other websites across the internet. These cookies enable Google and third-party vendors to measure and personalise the ads you see.

You have control over this:

• You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings (https://www.google.com/settings/ads).
• You can opt out of many third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising at the Network Advertising Initiative's opt-out page (https://optout.networkadvertising.org) and the Digital Advertising Alliance's page (https://optout.aboutads.info).
• You can accept or reject non-essential cookies using the banner shown on this site, and you can block or delete cookies through your browser settings.

How we use information

We use the limited information we collect only to operate and secure the website, understand in aggregate how visitors use it so we can improve it, and — where you have consented — to serve and measure advertising. We do not sell your personal information, and we do not build advertising profiles from data you give us directly.

Data sharing and third parties

We share data only with the service providers that make the site work — for example Google for analytics and advertising, and Firebase / Google Cloud for hosting. These providers process data under their own privacy policies. Beyond our processors, we may disclose information only if required by law or to protect the rights, safety and property of QANEN and its users.

Data retention and security

Analytics data is retained according to the retention settings of the providers we use and is not kept tied to your identity longer than necessary. The site is served over HTTPS to protect data in transit. Our client-side tools are designed so that the files and inputs you work with never leave your device at all.

Your rights and choices

Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR in the European Union and EEA, or the UK GDPR), you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict the processing of your personal data, to object to processing, and to data portability. Because we collect so little that identifies you, in most cases you can exercise these choices simply by managing cookies and ad settings as described above. To make a request, email hello@qanen.site.

Children's privacy

This website is not directed at children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Advertising that appears may be general in nature; if you believe a child has provided us personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time — for example when we add a new tool or service. Material changes will be reflected on this page. We encourage you to review it periodically.
