    Last updated: February 15, 2026

    At TheDigitalClock.com, your privacy matters. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights when you use our website.

    By using TheDigitalClock.com, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

    1. Information We Collect

    a) Server Logs (Automatic)

    When you visit TheDigitalClock.com, our servers automatically record basic technical information, including:

    • IP address
    • Date and time of your visit
    • Pages you view
    • Browser type and operating system

    This data is used only for security, abuse prevention, and performance monitoring. These logs are not used to personally identify you and are automatically deleted after 90 days.

    b) Your Settings & Preferences (Stored Locally)

    All your clock modes, alarms, timers, themes, and preferences are saved only in your browser’s local storage on your own device.

    This means:

    • Your settings never leave your device
    • We cannot see or access your alarms or preferences
    • Clearing your browser data will remove your saved settings

    We do not store this information on our servers.

    c) Cookies

    TheDigitalClock.com itself does not set any cookies. However, third-party advertising partners may place cookies on pages where ads are displayed. You can manage or disable these through your browser settings or the “Cookie Settings” option available in the site footer (where applicable).
