Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how PrintableRuler ("we," "us," "this site") handles information when you use printableruler.online.
Information we collect
PrintableRuler's ruler, protractor, and calibration tools run entirely in your browser. We do not require an account, and we do not collect or store the ruler dimensions, calibration values, or any other tool inputs on our servers — that data stays in your browser's local storage on your own device and is never transmitted to us.
Like most websites, our web server and hosting provider may automatically log standard technical information for security and diagnostic purposes, such as your IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, and pages visited. We use this only in aggregate to understand site usage and are not designed to identify you personally.
Cookies and similar technologies
We use browser local storage to remember your on-screen ruler calibration between visits, purely for your convenience. This is stored on your device and can be cleared at any time through your browser settings.
Advertising
This site may display advertisements served by third-party advertising companies, including Google AdSense. These companies may use cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and 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 may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- You can also learn more about how Google uses data at How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on your past visits to this website or other websites.
Analytics
We may use privacy-conscious analytics tools to understand aggregate traffic patterns (for example, which pages are most useful) so we can improve the site. Any such analytics data is used in aggregate and is not used to personally identify you.
Children's privacy
PrintableRuler is a general-audience tool and does not knowingly collect personal information from children. Because we do not require accounts or personal information to use any tool on this site, no personal data is knowingly collected from any user, including children.
Your choices
- You can clear your saved calibration at any time by clearing your browser's local storage for this site.
- You can block or limit cookies through your browser settings.
- You can opt out of personalized advertising using the Google Ads Settings link above.
