Privacy Policy

Depending on how you use the site, we may process:

• Usage and technical data — such as IP address, browser type, and logs needed to operate and secure the site.
• Contact messages — name, email, and message content you submit through the contact form.
• Calculator inputs — values you enter in free tools are processed in your browser for the calculation; we do not require you to save them to an account.

We use personal information to provide and improve the site, prevent abuse and fraud, respond to support requests, measure traffic, and comply with legal obligations.

We rely on trusted third parties to run OpenCrochet. They process data on our behalf under appropriate agreements and only for the purposes we describe. These may include:

• Hosting and application infrastructure.
• Tutorial and marketing content (CMS).
• Email delivery and form handling.
• Analytics (when configured).

Each provider has its own privacy policy governing how they handle data on their systems.

We use cookies and similar technologies needed for security, preferences such as theme, and (when enabled) analytics. You can control cookies through your browser settings.

We keep personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes above, including legal, accounting, or security requirements. Contact form messages are retained as needed to respond and for a reasonable follow-up period.

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or export personal data we hold about you, and to object to or restrict certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details below. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

OpenCrochet is not directed at children under 13 (or the minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Our service providers may process data in the United States and other countries. Where required, we rely on appropriate safeguards for cross-border transfers.

We may update this page from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated policy.
