Privacy Policy

Applicator Prep is built to be used without giving up any personal information. We do not run accounts, we do not ask for your email, and we do not set tracking cookies. This policy describes exactly what happens to data when you use the site, and only describes things we actually do.

Who we are

Applicator Prep is an independent study resource operated by Urban Algorithm LLC. We are the publisher and the data controller for this site. You can reach us through the Urban Algorithm contact page.

What we do not collect

• No user accounts, logins, or profiles.
• No email sign-up, newsletter, or contact form that stores your address.
• No advertising cookies, tracking pixels, or third-party ad networks.
• No sale or sharing of personal information, because we do not hold any.

Analytics and anonymous aggregate statistics

We measure aggregate traffic with Umami, a privacy-focused analytics tool we host ourselves. It is cookieless and collects anonymized data only: it does not set cookies, does not fingerprint you, and does not build a cross-site profile.

Alongside page views, we record anonymous aggregate statistics about how the calibration workflow, the category finder, and the practice test are used, for example which equipment type is picked most, the coarse output-rate band a calibration run lands in, and where the unit-error coach fires most often. Everything sent is banded or bucketed from a fixed catalog, never a raw field measurement, tank size, or exact figure you typed, and carries no account and no identifier, so a single visit can never be traced back to you. We use it to see what is working and, over time, to publish honest aggregate usage statistics, never to identify individual visitors. No analytics data is sold or handed to an advertising network.

Your tool inputs stay on your device

When you use the calibration workflow, the category finder, or the practice test, the values you type and your results are computed in your browser and saved, where applicable, in your browser's own localStorage. That full record stays on your device: we never receive it, there is no account to delete, and there is no server-side copy of your inputs. When you complete a run we do receive the anonymous aggregate summary described above, with no identifier attached. Clearing your browser storage erases the on-device record.

Third-party hosting

Like any website, our host and content-delivery network process the standard server request data (such as your IP address) needed to deliver the page to you. This is ordinary web infrastructure, is not used by us to profile you, and is not combined with any other data about you.

Children

This is a professional certification study resource intended for adults. We do not knowingly collect information from children, and in fact we do not collect personal information from anyone.

Changes to this policy

If our data practices change, we will update this page and move the effective date above. Because we start from collecting no personal data, any change would only ever be described here in the same plain terms.
