Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

At Hypertranslate, we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our website Hypertranslate.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information You Provide

We do not require you to create an account or provide any personal information to use our service. All translations are performed directly in your browser. If you choose to create a share link, the text you submitted and the resulting translation chain are stored so that others can replay the same translation.

2.2 Automatically Collected Information

When you visit our website, we automatically collect certain information about your device, including:

• IP address
• Browser type and version
• Time zone setting
• Operating system and platform
• Basic usage statistics

This information is collected using cookies and similar tracking technologies.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide and maintain our service
• Process translation requests through the Google Translate API
• Improve and optimize our website
• Rate-limit share creation and prevent abuse
• Detect, prevent, and address technical issues

4. Data Processing and Storage

4.1 Translation Processing

All translations happen directly in your browser using the Google Translate API. Your text is not stored on our servers unless you explicitly create a share link.

4.2 Share Links

When you create a share link, we store the original text, the full translation path and results, a random anonymous device ID, and your IP address in our database. This allows anyone with the link to replay your exact translation.

4.3 Local History

Your recent translations are saved locally in your browser's storage. This history never leaves your device unless you create a share link.

4.4 Analytics Data

We use Google Analytics to collect anonymous usage data. This data is stored on Google's servers and is subject to Google's privacy policy.

5. Cookies and Local Storage

We use cookies and browser local storage to enhance your experience on our website — for example, to remember your recent translations. You can instruct your browser to refuse cookies or clear local storage at any time.

6. Third-Party Services

Our service relies on third-party services to function: the Google Translate API processes the text you translate, and Google Analytics provides anonymous usage statistics. Our service may also contain links to websites or services that are not owned or controlled by Hypertranslate. We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for, the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party websites or services.

7. Children's Privacy

Our service does not address anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
