Bug Days

Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 15, 2026

Overview

Bug Days ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you use our website at bugdays.com.

Developer Tool Data

Most conversion, formatting, and diagnostic tools process their input entirely in your browser. For those tools:

  • Your data is processed locally on your device
  • Tool input is not sent to Bug Days
  • Tool input is not stored by Bug Days
  • Bug Days cannot recover input that remains only in your browser

Tools that perform network operations are exceptions. The IP lookup and access-log analyzer send only extracted, unique IP addresses to the Bug Days lookup API; raw logs, paths, headers, query strings, and user agents stay in the browser. API clients send requests to the endpoint you choose, directly or through a local bridge when selected. Each applicable tool explains its data flow on the page.

Sharing is explicit. URL shares place compressed report data in the address fragment. If you choose short-link storage, the share payload is sent to Bug Days and retrieved by its identifier. Review a report before sharing it because recipients can see the data included in that report.

Analytics - Google Analytics (GA4)

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use our website. GA4 collects:

  • Pages visited and time spent on pages
  • Device type, browser, and operating system
  • Approximate geographic location (country/region level)
  • Referral source (how you found our site)

GA4 uses cookies and similar technologies. This data helps us improve our tools and user experience. Google's privacy policy can be found at policies.google.com/privacy.

Advertising - Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our site. AdSense may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website or other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.

Contact Form

If you use our contact form, we collect the information you provide (name, email, message). This data is stored securely and used only to respond to your inquiry. We do not share this information with third parties.

  • Essential cookies: Used to remember your preferences (e.g., dark mode setting)

Data Retention

IP lookup requests are processed to return matches and are not stored as lookup records by the application. URL-fragment shares are not stored by Bug Days. Short-link payloads, contact submissions, and analytics data are retained according to their applicable service and operational policies.
