Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains what information StickerForge ("we", "us") collects and how it is used when you visit our website and use our tools. The short version: we collect almost nothing, and everything you create stays on your device.

1. Information we collect

1.1 What you type (prompts)

Your sticker prompts are processed entirely in your web browser. They are never transmitted to, or stored on, our servers. We cannot see what you generate, and neither can anyone else.

1.2 Local storage on your device

To make the site convenient, we use your browser's local storage to save: your language preference (English or Chinese), your consent choice for cookies, your recent prompts, and your favorites library. This data never leaves your device. You can clear it at any time through your browser settings, which will remove your saved favorites.

1.3 Server logs

Like virtually all websites, our hosting provider (Cloudflare Pages or similar) may keep standard, short-lived server logs (IP address, browser type, pages visited, timestamps) for security and performance purposes. We do not use these logs to build profiles of visitors.

2. Cookies

We use a minimal number of cookies:

• Essential cookies — required for core site functions, such as remembering your language and consent preferences. These do not require consent.
• Advertising cookies (third-party) — when ads are enabled on this site, Google AdSense and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. These are set by third parties and are subject to their own privacy policies.

You can control cookies in your browser settings. Our cookie consent banner lets you accept or decline non-essential advertising cookies; declining them will not affect core site functionality.

3. Advertising by Google AdSense

This site may display advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on this site. The use of advertising cookies enables Google and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.

You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of some third-party vendors' cookies by visiting aboutads.info. European users may manage their choices through YourOnlineChoices. We comply with Google's policies for publishers, including the EU user consent policy (GDPR) and the UK extension.

Advertising scripts on this site are loaded only after you explicitly accept cookies via our consent banner. If you decline, no advertising scripts are loaded and no advertising cookies are set; declining does not affect any core site functionality.

4. Third-party services

When ads are enabled, Google AdSense may set cookies and collect usage data through its ad systems, subject to Google's privacy policy at policies.google.com/privacy. We do not otherwise integrate analytics trackers, social buttons or third-party scripts that collect personal data.

5. Children's privacy (COPPA)

StickerForge is a general audience service and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, contact us at zjp133@outlook.com and we will delete it promptly.

6. Your rights

Depending on your location (for example, under the GDPR in the EEA/UK or the CCPA/CPRA in California), you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict the processing of your personal data. Because we hold almost no personal data on our servers, exercising these rights is usually as simple as clearing your browser's local storage. For anything else, email zjp133@outlook.com and we will respond within 30 days.

7. Data security

The site is served over HTTPS, and your data is stored only on your own device. We do not operate databases of user content, which significantly reduces data-security risk.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page will always reflect the latest revision. Material changes will be highlighted on this page.
