Privacy Statement

How CompareTexts Handles Your Data

CompareTexts is designed to run entirely in your browser. The text you paste, upload, or generate is processed locally on your device and does not leave your browser. We do not operate servers that store your comparisons, and we do not log the content of any document you work with.

The app may store minimal preferences in your browser storage (for example, theme or layout). This data never leaves your device.

Share Links & Website Analytics

Text comparisons can be restored from compressed text in the URL fragment after the # symbol. Treat the full link as private: anyone with it can recover the comparison, and it may remain in browser history. Clear all removes the comparison from the current URL.

We use Umami for website usage statistics such as page visits, browser language and screen size. Analytics excludes URL fragments and query strings from page URLs and referrers, so comparison share data is not included in those analytics requests.

Hosting & security logs

To deliver the website securely and reliably, our hosting or CDN provider may temporarily process limited request metadata such as IP address, user-agent, and basic diagnostics. This is standard for serving any website and helps with routing, performance, and abuse prevention. We do not use this information to profile users.

Email Support & Service Providers

If you contact us by email, your message is relayed through a transactional email provider configured via environment variables (for example, services like Resend or Postmark, or a custom webhook). Support emails are retained only as long as needed to resolve your request and are not used for marketing.

Contact: privacy@comparetexts.net

Support email retention: up to 90 days, unless a longer period is necessary to handle an ongoing issue.

Attribution

We thank open source communities for their stewardship and encourage you to support the projects that make privacy-first tooling possible.

Stay Informed

We revisit this policy as new features land. Significant updates are announced in release notes and within the application. The latest revision is always available on this page.
