This Privacy Policy describes how CavCount ("we," "us," or "our") handles information in connection with your use of the CavCount website located at https://cavcount.app (the "Service"). CavCount is a free web application that provides word and sentence counting functionality. No user account creation is required to use the Service.
The primary function of CavCount is to count words and sentences in text extracted from images that you upload. To achieve this, we use a third-party JavaScript library called Tesseract.js for Optical Character Recognition (OCR).
The information processed by CavCount is used exclusively for the following purpose:
We do not use the uploaded images or extracted text for any other purpose, including but not limited to:
As mentioned, we use Tesseract.js, a third-party JavaScript library, to perform OCR on the images you upload. This means that the images you upload are processed by Tesseract.js. Tesseract.js is an open-source library, and its processing occurs client-side (within your web browser).
While Tesseract.js itself doesn't have a distinct privacy policy since it operates client-side, you should be aware of its functionality. You can learn more about Tesseract.js here: https://github.com/naptha/tesseract.js (This links to the GitHub repository, which is the best available resource.)
We take reasonable measures to protect the information processed by CavCount. Data transmitted to and from our website is encrypted using HTTPS. However, no method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. Therefore, while we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
We do not store the images you upload or the extracted text on our servers. The image processing and text extraction happen within your browser, and the data is not persisted after you leave the page or close your browser. Because processing occurs client-side, there is no data retention on our servers.
While we do not collect personal information in the traditional sense (no accounts, no persistent storage), we acknowledge that the images you upload could contain personal information. We aim to minimize any incidental processing of such information. If you have any concerns about the content of images you have uploaded, please contact us at [email protected].
CavCount is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently processed information from a child under 13, please contact us immediately.
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post any changes on this page and update the "Last Updated" date at the top. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
