Privacy

Your colors. Your device.

Short version: Screen Color Picker runs 100% in your browser. We don't collect, store, or transmit the colors you pick. We never see them. They never leave your device.

What we don't collect

• The colors you pick — they're returned directly by the browser to JavaScript running on this page; the network never sees them.
• Your palette history — stored exclusively in your browser's localStorage, which we have no way to read remotely.
• Your IP address, beyond the standard webserver logs that every site keeps for 30 days for abuse prevention.
• Any account info — there are no accounts. We don't even have a sign-up form.

What we might collect (only if enabled)

We may add anonymous analytics in the future to track aggregate page views (e.g. Cloudflare Web Analytics, which is cookieless and privacy-respecting). If we do, we'll document it here and never use any provider that fingerprints visitors.

Today, the only data anyone collects is whatever Cloudflare's CDN logs at the edge for the public-facing serving of the static page itself.

Third-party services we use

• Cloudflare Pages — hosts the static HTML/CSS/JS. Their privacy policy.
• Google Fonts — serves the Geist font family. Google's privacy policy. We may self-host fonts in a future release to remove this dependency.

Your local data

Your palette history is saved in localStorage under the key screencolorpicker:palette:v1. To wipe it, click "Clear all" in the palette section, or clear site data via browser settings.

Your theme preference (dark/light) is also in localStorage under screencolorpicker:theme.
