At CountTheseWords.com, we value your privacy and are committed to protecting any information you share with us while using our professional word counting tool. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you access our website and services. By using CountTheseWords.com, you agree to the practices described below. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to us via the contact details provided at the end of this policy.

What We Do

CountTheseWords.com is a tool designed for bloggers, editors, and writers to analyze text with precision. We provide detailed statistics on words, characters, sentences, and paragraphs, along with features like reading and speaking time estimates, similar word identification, and a customizable dark/light mode—all to help you optimize your content and boost productivity. No registration is required to use our service, making it accessible and easy to use.

Information We Collect

We aim to keep things simple and minimize the data we collect. Here’s what we might gather when you use our site:

Text You Input: When you paste or type text into our word counter, we process it to generate the statistics and insights you request (e.g., word count, character count, etc.). We don’t store this text after your session ends unless you explicitly choose to save it for personalization (see below).
Usage Data: We may collect basic information about how you interact with our site, such as your browser type, operating system, IP address, and pages visited. This helps us understand how our tool is used and improve its performance.
Preferences: If you switch between dark and light mode or adjust other settings, we may store these preferences locally on your device (via cookies or similar technologies) to enhance your experience next time you visit.
Analytics: We use anonymized data (e.g., how many users visit, which features are most popular) to refine our tool and keep it running smoothly.

How We Use Your Information

The information we collect serves a few straightforward purposes:

To Provide Our Service: We process your text to deliver the detailed statistics and features you expect from CountTheseWords.com.
To Improve Your Experience: Usage data and preferences help us make the site faster, more intuitive, and tailored to your needs.
To Optimize Our Tool: Anonymized analytics let us spot trends, fix bugs, and plan new features that benefit all users.

We Don’t Require Registration

You can use CountTheseWords.com without creating an account or providing personal details like your name or email address. Any text you analyze is processed in real-time and not linked to any identifiable profile.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies (small data files stored on your device) to remember your settings (like dark/light mode) and track basic site usage. These are optional—you can disable them in your browser settings, though it might affect how the site works for you. We don’t use third-party advertising cookies or track you across other websites.

Data Storage and Security

Text Input: Unless you save your text for later use (an optional feature we might offer), we don’t keep it after your session ends. It’s processed temporarily and then discarded.
Usage Data: Any non-personal data we collect is stored securely and used only for the purposes listed above.
Security: We take reasonable steps to protect your information from unauthorized access, though no online tool can guarantee absolute security due to the nature of the internet.

Sharing Your Information

We don’t sell, trade, or share your personal information with anyone. The text you input stays between you and our tool. The only exceptions are:

Legal Requirements: If we’re required by law to disclose information (e.g., a court order), we’ll comply as necessary.
Service Providers: We might use trusted third parties (e.g., hosting or analytics services) to run the site, but they’re bound to keep your data confidential and use it only for our purposes.

Third-Party Links

Our site might include links to external resources (e.g., SEO tips or writing tools). We’re not responsible for their privacy practices, so please check their policies if you visit them.

Your Choices

Text: You control what you input. Don’t paste anything sensitive if you’re concerned about privacy.
Cookies: Adjust your browser settings to manage or block cookies.
Opt-Out: Since we don’t collect personal identifiable information or send communications, there’s no need to opt out of anything.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as our tool evolves. Any changes will be posted here with an updated “Last Updated” date. Check back occasionally to stay informed.
