Privacy Policy

1. Core Privacy Philosophy

We believe you should not have to trade your privacy to brainstorm, sketch concepts, or teach a class. Free Online Whiteboard is built to be a client-side utility application: it runs in your browser, writes to your browser's local memory, and doesn't upload your data to remote databases.

2. How We Store Your Boards

When you create drawings, sticky notes, shapes, or upload images, the elements are serialized and saved inside your browser's Local Storage.

• We do not transmit your local whiteboard data over the web.
• We do not have database accounts holding your whiteboard documents.
• Clearing your browser cache or deleting application data will delete the boards stored on that device.

3. Shareable Boards & URLs

If you choose to use the "Share Link" action, your board configuration is bundled in the URL parameters or as temporary read-only state. We do not index these URLs, nor do we crawl or inspect shared boards. Anyone who has access to the URL can view the static state shared at that moment.

4. Cookies and Web Analytics

We do not use tracking cookies or tracking scripts. We do not use third-party analytics software that builds advertising profiles on users. Our server configuration collects basic web server logs (IP address, browser agent, page requested) to verify server performance and prevent security attacks.

5. Children's Privacy

Free Online Whiteboard does not solicit, gather, or require any registration information, making it safe and compliant for classrooms and school environments. We collect no personal data from users of any age, including children under 13.
