Privacy Policy
LAST UPDATED: MAY 2025
1. Introduction & Overview
At CodeCrest, accessible from codecrestinnovation.com, one of our main priorities is the privacy of our visitors. This Privacy Policy document outlines the types of information we process, the operational mechanics of our client-side software utility, and how we coordinate with third-party networks. We maintain a strict commitment to secure, zero-retention data pipelines to protect your sensitive financial and legal records.
2. Data We Process (Real-time In-Memory Data)
Unlike traditional SaaS utility platforms, CodeCrest enforces a strict **Zero Database Retention** directive. When you paste raw accounting rows into the Financial Explainer, upload business agreements into the Contract Simplifier, simulate variables in the Pricing Simulator, or generate task sheets in the Operations Generator, this data is processed entirely in real-time.
All input vectors are parsed temporarily in Next.js environment memory buffers to output CFO insights or playbooks. None of your sensitive business options, timeline projections, cash flow spreadsheets, or legal parameters are ever saved to persistent servers, databases, or third-party training logs.
3. Google AdSense & Third-Party Advertising
To support the free operation of our business intelligence toolkit, we coordinate with third-party advertising networks. CodeCrest explicitly integrates **Google AdSense** as an advertisement vendor. Google AdSense utilizes cookies (such as the DART cookie) to serve targeted advertisements to visitors of codecrestinnovation.com.
These advertisements may be personalized by Google based on your browsing history across other internet directories. These third-party ad servers or ad networks use technology in their respective advertisements and links that appear on CodeCrest, which are sent directly to users' browsers. They automatically receive your IP address when this occurs. These technologies are used to measure the effectiveness of their advertising campaigns and/or to personalize the advertising content that you see on websites that you visit. Note that CodeCrest has no access to or control over these cookies that are used by third-party advertisers.
4. Cookies, Web Beacons, and Google Analytics
CodeCrest uses standard “cookies” to store information including visitors' preferences, and the pages on the website that the visitor accessed or visited. The information is used to optimize the users' experience by customizing our web page content based on visitors' browser type and/or other information.
Additionally, we utilize **Google Analytics** for anonymous traffic statistics. Google Analytics tracks user interactions (such as pages viewed, session durations, and screen coordinates) purely in an anonymized, aggregated format. This helps us monitor our mean edge cache speed performance and coordinate platform updates without identifying any individual user.
5. User Rights & Ad Opt-Out Directives
You maintain full authority over your tracking preferences. You may choose to disable cookies through your individual browser options. Detailed information about cookie management with specific web browsers can be found at the browsers' respective websites.
To opt-out of personalized third-party advertising, you can manage your settings directly by visiting the **Google Ad Settings** page (adssettings.google.com). Alternatively, you can opt-out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page.
