Privacy Policy

Our Commitment to Your Privacy

At VK Finder, we take your privacy seriously. We are committed to providing a search tool that respects user privacy while enabling access to educational content. This policy explains how we handle your information.

The Short Version

1. Information We Don't Collect

We intentionally designed VK Finder to operate without collecting personal information:

• No Search Tracking: We don't see, store, or log what you search for
• No User Accounts: No registration required, no personal data collected
• No Analytics Tracking: We don't use Google Analytics or similar tracking tools
• No Behavioral Data: We don't track how you use our website

2. How VK Finder Works

Understanding our technology helps explain our privacy approach:

1. Client-Side Processing: Your search queries are processed entirely in your web browser
2. Direct Redirection: We generate a Google search URL and open it directly
3. No Server Interception: Searches never pass through our servers
4. No Database Storage: We have no database storing search history

3. Third-Party Services

3.1 Google Search

When you use VK Finder, your search is redirected to Google. Google may collect information according to their Privacy Policy. We encourage you to review Google's privacy practices.

3.2 Cloudflare

We use Cloudflare for DNS and content delivery. Cloudflare may collect limited technical data as outlined in their Privacy Policy.

4. Cookies & Local Storage

We use minimal technology for essential functions:

• Essential Cookies: Basic session cookies for website functionality
• No Tracking Cookies: We don't use cookies for analytics or advertising
• Local Storage: May be used for UI preferences (dark/light mode)
• Browser Data: Your browser may cache website files for faster loading

5. Children's Privacy

VK Finder is designed for educational purposes and may be used by students and researchers. However, we don't knowingly collect any personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately.

6. Data Security

While we don't collect personal data, we still prioritize security:

• HTTPS encryption on all pages
• Regular security updates
• Minimal codebase to reduce attack surface
• Secure hosting infrastructure

7. Your Rights

Under various privacy laws (GDPR, CCPA, etc.), you have rights including:

• Right to know what data is collected (in our case: none)
• Right to deletion (not applicable as we don't store data)
• Right to opt-out of data collection (not applicable)
• Right to data portability (not applicable)

Since we don't collect personal data, these rights are inherently respected.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy as our service evolves. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. We encourage periodic review of this policy.

9. Contact Information

For privacy-related questions or concerns:

• Email: [email protected]
• Response Time: We aim to respond within 7 business days

Note: Since we don't collect data, most privacy inquiries will receive the same response: "We don't collect or store your personal information."

10. Jurisdiction

VK Finder operates globally but is not subject to specific national privacy laws since we don't collect data. However, we designed our service to exceed common privacy standards worldwide.
