1. Information We Do NOT Collect

Unlike most modern web applications, we operate under a strict zero-data collection architecture. When you visit myuselessweb.com, we do NOT collect:

  • Personally Identifiable Information (PII) like names, emails, physical addresses, or phone numbers.
  • Payment or financial details (The platform is 100% free with zero paywalls).
  • Device location, IP addresses, or browser fingerprinting profiles.
  • Keystrokes or text entered inside toys (e.g. Hacker Typer or Password Checker are strictly local in-memory simulations).

2. How Local Storage & Client Telemetry Works

To provide interactive gamification features (such as your Procrastination Diploma, wasted time counters, sound toggle preferences, and achievement unlocks), we use standard HTML5 window.localStorage on your own device.

// Client-only keys stored on your device:
useless_telemetry: Wasted seconds, click count, toys unlocked
useless_theme: "dark" or "light" UI preference
useless_sound_muted: "true" or "false" audio state

This data never leaves your computer and is never sent to our servers. You can clear this data at any moment by clearing your browser's site cookies & storage or clicking "Reset All Stats" on our Stats page.

3. Web Audio API & Media Permissions

All sound effects on this website (pops, clicks, synthesizer frequencies, bubble wraps) are generated synthetically via the native browser Web Audio API (AudioContext).

  • We do not access your microphone, camera, or audio inputs.
  • You can mute all sounds globally at any time using the sound toggle (M) in the header.

4. Server Logs & Edge Hosting

Our website is compiled into static HTML and delivered via global Edge Content Delivery Networks (CDNs). Edge servers may temporarily log standard technical server access requests (e.g. HTTP status codes, user-agent header for responsive rendering, and requested asset paths) solely for DDoS mitigation, caching efficiency, and server uptime monitoring. These logs are automatically scrubbed and cannot identify individual persons.

5. Children's Online Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

MyUselessWeb is family-friendly, unblocked, and suitable for all age groups. Because we do not collect any personal information whatsoever, we fully comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) and international child privacy regulations.

6. Your Rights Under GDPR & CCPA / CPRA

If you are a resident of the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, California, or any jurisdiction with data protection laws, you possess legal rights regarding your personal data. Because we store no personal data on our servers, there is no database entry to delete, inspect, or rectify. You retain 100% autonomous control over your local browser data.
