Introduction

ProofTamil ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our free Tamil text editing and proofreading platform.

Information We Collect

Personal Information

When you register for an account, we may collect:

  • Email address
  • Name (optional)
  • Account preferences and settings

Content Data

We temporarily process the Tamil text you write in our editor to provide AI-powered grammar checking and proofreading suggestions. Your drafts are stored securely in your account and are only accessible to you.

Usage Information and Analytics

We collect information about how you interact with ProofTamil, including:

  • Page views and navigation patterns
  • Features you use and actions you take (draft creation, AI requests, suggestion acceptances)
  • Browser type and version (hashed for privacy)
  • Device information (mobile, desktop, tablet)
  • Truncated IP address (first 3 octets only for privacy)

We implement privacy-preserving measures: IP addresses are truncated, user agents are hashed, and query parameters are removed from referrers. This data helps us improve the platform and understand usage patterns.

How We Use Your Information

ProofTamil uses Google Gemini AI to analyze your Tamil text and provide grammar suggestions. Your text is sent to Google's AI services for processing. We do not store your text permanently on external AI servers. Please review Google's privacy policy for information about how they handle data.

Data Storage and Security

Your account data and drafts are stored securely using industry-standard encryption. We use PostgreSQL databases hosted on secure servers. While we implement reasonable security measures, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.

  • Access your personal data
  • Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Request deletion of your account and data
  • Export your drafts and content
