Privacy Policy

Welcome to AXVOI. We are committed to protecting your personal data and respecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, store, and manage your information when you visit our website, utilize our online tools, or access our subdomains (including https://www.axvoi.com, our Brat Generator at https://www.axvoi.com/tools/brat-generator, and our SpeedTest application at https://speed.axvoi.com).

By accessing or using our websites, subdomains, and tools, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. We prioritize transparency, security, and user control over their data, and we explicitly confirm that AXVOI does not sell personal data to any third party.

We collect different types of information depending on how you interact with our website and tools. This includes information you actively provide to us (such as during contact or newsletter registration) and information collected automatically through the infrastructure running our services.

We aim to minimize data collection where possible, ensuring we only gather information necessary to operate, optimize, secure, and improve your user experience on our tech blog and utility applications.

You may choose to provide personal information to us directly. This typically occurs in the following scenarios:

• Contact details: Your name, email address, and message content when submitting an inquiry through our contact page.
• Newsletter Subscriptions: Your email address when signing up to receive our tech articles and news updates.
• Communication Records: Any information provided during direct support emails or feedback submissions.

We request that users do not submit sensitive personal information (such as government IDs, financial data, health records, or passwords) into our contact forms or free public tools.

When you access AXVOI, our servers and third-party hosting partners automatically collect standard technical logs. This details:

• Network and routing data: Your IP address, approximate geographical location (country and city level), and network type.
• Device and client settings: Browser type, browser version, operating system, and screen resolution.
• Usage metrics: Referrer URLs, pages visited, time spent per page, clickthrough activity, and timestamp of requests.

This information is essential for detecting abuse, maintaining website security, and compiling aggregate diagnostics on site performance.

We use cookies and standard tracking tools to make our website function optimally and to analyze traffic patterns.

Cookies are small text files stored locally on your device. We use essential cookies to manage sessions and layout preferences, and analytics cookies to understand page popularity. You can configure your browser to reject all cookies or notify you when a cookie is set. To learn more about our specific cookie usage, configurations, and how to opt-out, please visit our dedicated Cookies Policy.

We use the information we collect to operate, improve, and secure our services. Specifically, we process data for:

• Service Delivery: Serving our blog articles, rendering tools, and managing browser processing.
• Communications: Responding to support queries, contact requests, and delivering newsletter updates (with your consent).
• Security and Optimization: Protecting against DDoS attacks, troubleshooting bugs, auditing servers, and monitoring system integrity.
• Analytics: Building aggregated, non-identifying reports about reader behavior and tool usage.

AXVOI provides various online utility tools for developers and creators. For maximum privacy, we prioritize client-side execution.

Where possible, processing, conversions, or rendering occur directly in your web browser without transmitting raw assets to our servers. Because these tools are free and public, users should not upload or type sensitive personal data, credentials, or proprietary source code into these interfaces unless explicitly required for the tool's core utility.

Our Brat Generator (accessible at https://www.axvoi.com/tools/brat-generator) allows you to create images in the signature style of the "Brat" album cover.

The rendering and image generation process occurs entirely client-side within your browser using HTML5 Canvas or SVG technologies. The text you input and the generated image are not sent to, processed by, or stored on our servers. The final files are downloaded directly from your browser memory to your local storage.

Our SpeedTest application (accessible at https://speed.axvoi.com) measures network performance. When you execute a speed test, certain technical data must be processed to perform the measurements:

• IP Address: Processed to establish socket connections with server nodes, perform ping tests, and identify network providers.
• Performance Metrics: Ping, jitter, latency, download speed, upload speed, and total bandwidth consumed.
• Device Context: Browser type, operating system, and platform metadata.
• Approximate Location: Country, region, or city level geographic estimates, used exclusively to pair you with the nearest server node for accurate testing.

This data is processed dynamically during the speed test and is not associated with personal profiles.

We track reader engagement and server health using standard analytics and error monitoring packages. We configure these systems to protect privacy, such as masking IP addresses in Google Analytics where possible.

This performance data helps us write better articles, choose relevant topics, fix broken routes, and optimize loading speeds for visitors globally.

AXVOI uses select third-party subprocessors to deliver our website infrastructure. These include:

These partners may collect basic technical data like IP addresses or request timestamps during your visit to serve pages safely and fast. We recommend reviewing their respective privacy policies.

Our tech articles and blog posts frequently link to external resources, official documentation, GitHub repositories, and developer sites.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or safety of external websites. We encourage you to read the privacy statements of any site you navigate to from AXVOI.

We employ appropriate technical security measures to safeguard your information:

• All site traffic is forced to utilize secure HTTPS (TLS) connections, protecting data in transit.
• API keys, configuration settings, and server credentials are saved in isolated environment variables and never committed to client-side code.
• Access controls are restricted, limiting server administration to verified maintainers.

Please remember that no method of transmission over the internet, or method of electronic storage, is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

We only retain personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy or to comply with legal requirements:

• Contact messages are stored for up to 3 years to maintain support history.
• Newsletter emails are retained until you unsubscribe.
• Server technical logs are kept for up to 12 months for security audits.
• Analytics profiles are automatically deleted after 26 months.

Depending on your location, you may have specific data protection rights under regulations like GDPR or CCPA. These rights include:

• Right to Access: Request a copy of the data we hold about you.
• Right to Rectification: Correct inaccurate or incomplete information.
• Right to Erasure: Request deletion of your personal data.
• Right to Portability: Receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format.
• Right to Object: Terminate processing of your data based on legitimate interest or consent.

To exercise any of these rights, please submit a request through our contact channels.

AXVOI, its tools, and its subdomains are not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately, and we will take immediate steps to purge the record from our databases.

We may update our Privacy Policy periodically to adapt to changes in our operations, security standards, or privacy regulations.

All updates will be posted on this page with the modified "Last updated" date visible at the top. We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information.
