Privacy Policy: Client-Side Telemetry & Data Transparency
Ideacrochet operates with a strict privacy-first, client-side architecture. Custom project bag states, row counter progress, and yardage calculation presets persist entirely in your browser's local storage with zero server-side tracking or data sale.
Learn how our privacy architecture protects users across the Ideacrochet brand hub. Effective Date: October 2026 • Version 1.2
Client-Side LocalStorage: Why Your Project Bag Never Leaves Your Device
When you use our universal crochet tools, save items in your project bag, or use our digital row counter, that data is stored strictly on your local device via Client-Side LocalStorage. Operating with Zero Server Telemetry, your craft sessions, row counts, and pattern bookmarks never touch an external database.
Affiliate Disclosures & External Link Transparency (FTC Compliance)
Some pattern tutorials include Affiliate Disclosures for craft suppliers (such as Amazon Associates, Lion Brand, or WeCrochet). Clicking these links does not track your personal identity on our site, and we receive a modest commission at zero additional cost to you under full FTC regulatory compliance.
Cookies, Analytics & User Rights Under Global Privacy Regulations
We enforce strict GDPR Compliance across all European and international traffic. We do not set third-party tracking cookies or collect personally identifiable information. Standard privacy-preserving server telemetry measures edge performance and Core Web Vitals to deliver sub-700ms page speeds.
