Privacy Policy

Effective Date: June 2024

Welcome to SQGATE. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your data when you use our educational digital logic and circuit simulator.

By accessing or using SQGATE, you acknowledge and agree that you have read, understood, and automatically accepted our Terms and Conditions.

1. Data Storage and Telemetry

SQGATE operates primarily within your web browser. Most processing and logic calculations are performed locally on your device.

Project Data: All circuit designs, configurations, and state history are saved locally using your browser's local storage mechanisms.
Anonymous Data Collection: To help us improve the platform, we collect anonymous usage data and structural topology of your circuits, which is stored securely in our database. This contains no personal information, email addresses, or IPs. If you create an account and sign in, this anonymous data collection is completely disabled to protect your privacy.

2. Third-Party Services, Advertisers, and Analytics

We use third-party services like Google Analytics to understand how users interact with our site, and Google AdSense to serve ads. These companies may use information (not including your name, address, email address, or telephone number) about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements and measure site performance.

Third party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to your website or other websites.
Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to your users based on their visit to your sites and/or other sites on the Internet.
Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Ads Settings.

3. External Links

Our platform may contain links to external sites, such as third-party payment providers. Once you click these links and leave SQGATE, you are subject to the privacy policies of those respective platforms.

4. Children's Privacy

Because SQGATE is an educational tool that does not collect personal data, it is safe for students and users of all ages to use without requiring parental consent for data collection.

5. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time if we introduce new features (such as optional cloud saving). Any updates will be posted on this page.
