# ClimbType Privacy Policy

_Last updated: 2026-05-20_

ClimbType is a browser-based climbing style check available at https://climbti.com.

## Summary

ClimbType is designed to avoid collecting personal information in the MVP.

- No account system
- No server-side storage of quiz answers
- No database of individual results
- Quiz scoring runs in your browser

## Data stored in your browser

The following may be stored locally in your browser:

- Quiz progress
- Result score summary
- Selected language
- Full-result unlock preference

This data is stored using browser storage such as `localStorage`. The app does not send this data to our server.

## Result sharing

If you copy or share a result link, the result score summary may be included in the URL hash, for example:

```text
#result=L10.A4.C2.P1.T2.S1
```

Anyone with the shared link may be able to view that result.

## Advertising

ClimbType may use Google AdSense or similar advertising services.

Advertising providers may use cookies, device identifiers, IP address, browser information, or similar data according to their own policies. If personalized ads or consent flows are enabled, additional notices or consent tools may be required depending on your region.

## Analytics

ClimbType may use basic hosting or traffic analytics, such as Cloudflare analytics, to understand aggregate site usage. The MVP does not require user accounts or personal profiles.

If additional analytics tools are added later, this policy should be updated with:

- Provider name
- Data collected
- Purpose
- Retention period
- Opt-out method if available

## Contact

For privacy-related questions, contact the site operator through the GitHub repository owner for this project or the contact method published on https://climbti.com.

## Changes

This policy may be updated as the service adds advertising, analytics, payments, or account features.
