Privacy Policy

1. Browser-Based Local File Processing

MatrixRunway is designed with privacy as a core principle. Whenever technically possible, all files you upload, drag, drop, paste, or process are handled entirely within your own web browser using client-side processing technologies. Your documents, PDFs, images, text files, and other uploaded content are not transmitted to, stored on, or retained by MatrixRunway servers during normal operation.

Because your files remain on your device, MatrixRunway cannot access, view, copy, recover, restore, or share them. You remain solely responsible for maintaining backup copies of your files and ensuring the security of your own device and browser environment.

2. Information We Collect

Although MatrixRunway does not collect or store your uploaded files, we may automatically collect limited technical information required to operate, maintain, improve, secure, and support the Services. This information may include:

• Device & Browser Data: Browser type and version, operating system, device model, screen resolution, and language preferences.
• Network & Request Data: IP address, approximate geographic region (country or city level), referring URL, pages visited, timestamps, and session durations.
• Usage Metrics: Aggregate click paths, error reports, and feature interactions.

This technical telemetry is collected automatically and cannot be used by us to inspect or identify the contents of your processed files.

3. Google Analytics

MatrixRunway uses Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our website, identify technical bottlenecks, measure website performance, improve user experience, and guide the development of new features.

Google Analytics may collect information such as your browser type, device characteristics, pages visited, session duration, and approximate location via cookies or similar telemetry technologies. The information generated is transmitted to and stored by Google in accordance with Google’s Privacy Policy. MatrixRunway does not use Google Analytics to track, collect, monitor, or inspect the contents of files processed through our utilities.

4. Advertising & Monetization

To keep MatrixRunway 100% free and accessible without subscriptions, paid upgrades, or mandatory accounts, we may display advertisements provided by third-party advertising partners, such as Google AdSense.

These advertising providers may use cookies, web beacons, or similar technologies to serve advertisements, measure advertising performance, and detect fraudulent clicks or impressions in accordance with their respective privacy policies. MatrixRunway does not provide, sell, or share your uploaded files or processed documents with any advertising partners.

5. Cookies, Local Storage & Clipboard API

MatrixRunway uses standard web technologies to provide a fast, reliable, and personalized browsing experience:

• Cookies: Small text files placed on your device to remember user preferences, analyze traffic flow, and ensure website stability. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings.
• Browser Local Storage (localStorage): We use client-side local storage to preserve non-sensitive interface preferences, such as your Dark Mode / Light Mode theme selection and recent tool configurations. This data resides solely on your physical device, is never transmitted to our servers, and can be cleared at any time by wiping your browser history or site data.
• Clipboard API Usage: Certain utility tools provide convenient "Copy to Clipboard" or "Paste" buttons. MatrixRunway accesses your device clipboard strictly upon your direct, deliberate action (such as clicking a designated button). MatrixRunway never passively monitors, records, or transmits your clipboard data to any external server.

6. How We Use Information

The limited technical information collected is used exclusively for legitimate operational purposes:

• Operating, maintaining, and enhancing the website and its online tools.
• Diagnosing technical glitches, server errors, and client-side performance issues.
• Protecting the Services against cyberattacks, malicious automated bots, fraud, and abuse.
• Analyzing aggregate visitor trends to build new, high-demand utility tools.
• Complying with applicable legal, statutory, or regulatory obligations.

We do not use uploaded files or file contents for analytics, marketing, user profiling, machine learning training, or any commercial exploitation.

7. Data Sharing & Disclosure

MatrixRunway does not sell, rent, lease, or trade your uploaded files or personal information. We may share limited technical information only with trusted third-party service providers that assist in operating the website, including:

• Infrastructure & Hosting: Cloud hosting facilities and Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) that deliver website assets quickly and securely.
• Analytics Providers: Services like Google Analytics that compile aggregated, non-identifying traffic statistics.
• Security & DDoS Protection: Services that protect our platform against malicious requests and automated attacks.

We may also disclose information if required to do so by applicable law, valid subpoena, court order, or governmental regulation, or when necessary to protect our legal rights, safety, and property.

8. International Users

MatrixRunway is accessible to users worldwide. Depending on your location, technical data collected in connection with your visit may be processed or transferred to servers located in countries where our third-party infrastructure providers maintain facilities. By using MatrixRunway, you acknowledge and consent to such transfers where permitted by applicable law.

9. Data Security

We employ industry-standard technical and organizational security measures, including HTTPS encryption in transit, to safeguard the limited technical telemetry we collect. However, no internet transmission or electronic storage architecture is ever 100% invulnerable. You acknowledge that you use our Services at your own discretion and risk.

10. Data Retention

Because uploaded files are processed locally within your browser, MatrixRunway does not retain copies of your documents, images, or files on its servers. Technical telemetry, web server access logs, and security metrics are retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to maintain service reliability, satisfy legal obligations, resolve disputes, and prevent malicious abuse.

11. Children's Privacy

MatrixRunway is not directed toward children who are below the minimum age required to provide valid consent under the laws of their jurisdiction. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe that a child has provided personal information through our Services, please contact us so that appropriate action can be taken.

12. Third-Party Websites

Our Services may contain links to external third-party websites or services. MatrixRunway does not own, control, or endorse these third-party platforms and assumes no responsibility for their privacy policies, content, or practices. We encourage you to review the privacy notices of any external site you visit.

13. Your Privacy Rights (CCPA & GDPR)

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may possess specific statutory rights regarding personal data collected about you:

• European Economic Area & UK (GDPR): You have the right to request access to, rectification of, or erasure of personal information held by us, as well as the right to restrict or object to certain processing activities.
• California Residents (CCPA / CPRA) — "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information": MatrixRunway does not sell user documents, files, or personal information for monetary or valuable consideration. Under the California Consumer Privacy Act, California residents have the right to know what personal data is collected, request its deletion, and opt out of any future sale or sharing of personal information.

Because your uploaded files are processed locally on your device and are never stored on MatrixRunway servers, data deletion or retrieval requests do not apply to processed documents. To exercise any privacy rights regarding technical telemetry, please reach out via our contact email below.

14. Changes to this Privacy Policy

MatrixRunway may revise or update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect technological improvements, functional enhancements, or legal requirements. Any modifications become effective immediately upon posting to this page. Your continued use of the Services following an update signifies your acceptance of the revised Privacy Policy.
