This Privacy Policy applies to the websites operated by the Company, as well as web-based tools and related services provided through the same domain or associated pages.

Some web-based tools provided by the Company, including aspect ratio calculators and random number generators, process values entered by users or results generated by the tools within the user’s browser.
Such input values and generated results are generally not transmitted to or stored on servers operated by the Company.
However, general usage events, such as whether a tool was used, the type of tool used, or whether a button was clicked, may be transmitted to Google Analytics for service usage analysis. The Company does not transmit the specific values entered by users or the results generated by the tools as analytics events.
Information entered or generated through a web tool may disappear when the page is refreshed, the browser tab is closed, or website data is deleted. Where a tool uses the browser’s local storage feature, the information may be stored in the user’s browser and may be removed by deleting the browser’s website data.
The Company may use cookies and similar technologies to analyze website usage and provide advertisements. Users may block cookies or delete previously stored cookies through their browser settings.
Cookies are small amounts of information stored by a website in the user’s browser. Cookies and similar technologies may be used for the following purposes:

The Company does not directly collect personal information through user accounts or contact forms and does not separately store such information in its own database.
The retention and use periods for information processed through third-party services, including Google Analytics, Kakao AdFit, Google Fonts, and Cloudflare Pages, are determined by the Company’s applicable service settings and the policies of each service provider.
Cookies and website data stored in a browser may remain until the expiration period set for the cookie, until the user changes the browser settings, or until the user deletes them.
If the Company directly retains personal information for a specific purpose in the future, the information will be retained until that purpose has been fulfilled. Where applicable laws require a separate retention period, the information will be retained for the period required by law.
If the Company directly retains personal information, it will destroy the information without undue delay when the purpose of processing has been fulfilled or the applicable retention period has expired.
Personal information stored in electronic files will be deleted using methods intended to make recovery or restoration difficult.
