PRIVACY POLICY

F1 Tools is designed with privacy in mind. We do not require user accounts, logins, or personal information to use our tools.

When you visit the site, analytics providers may receive device and usage information, including cookie identifiers and your IP address:

• Usage analytics (pages visited and feature usage) via Google Analytics and PostHog
• Device information (browser type, operating system, screen resolution)
• Approximate geographic location (country/region level only, derived from IP address)
• Referring website or search terms that brought you to our site

The graphics editors process your uploaded image files and generate exports in your browser. F1 Tools does not upload those files to a server. Analytics can record page visits and feature usage, but session recording is disabled.

When you export a graphic, the image is generated locally using your browser's canvas API and downloaded directly to your device.

We use cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

• Analytics cookies: Google Analytics and PostHog use cookies to understand how visitors interact with our site. This helps us improve the user experience.
• Advertising cookies: If Google AdSense or similar advertising partners are enabled, they may set cookies to deliver ads, measure ad performance, and limit how often you see the same ad. These partners may collect or receive information about your visit to this site and other sites.
• Functional cookies: We may use local storage to remember your preferences (such as team presets or editor settings) between sessions.

You can disable cookies through your browser settings. Our tools will continue to function without cookies enabled, though some preference-saving features may not work. Where required by law, we will present a consent mechanism before non-essential advertising cookies are set.

F1 Tools may display advertisements served by Google AdSense or other advertising partners. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.

Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings at https://www.google.com/settings/ads.

We use the following third-party services:

• Google Analytics - for understanding site traffic and usage patterns. Google's privacy policy applies to data collected through their service.
• PostHog - for product analytics and understanding feature usage. PostHog processes data in accordance with their privacy policy.
• Google AdSense (when enabled) - for displaying advertisements. Google and its partners process data in accordance with Google's advertising and privacy policies.

The generators do not maintain an account database or server library of uploaded graphics. Analytics providers process identifiers and usage information under their own privacy policies and the site's configured retention settings. If advertising is enabled, its providers also apply their own retention settings.

Our site is a general-purpose graphics tool and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

The generators do not require accounts, but analytics providers may hold identifiers and usage information. For privacy questions, use our Contact page. You can also:

• Use browser privacy settings or extensions to block analytics and advertising cookies
• Opt out of personalised Google ads at https://www.google.com/settings/ads

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be reflected on this page with an updated revision date. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

If you have questions about this privacy policy or our data practices, you can reach us through our GitHub repository at github.com/wosca or via the Contact page.
