Privacy Statement

Markdown Studio is a free tool designed to simplify your Markdown writing experience. Our application allows you to easily convert Markdown to formatted text, with features including real-time preview, syntax highlighting, and multiple export options. We’re committed to providing this service completely free of charge, with no hidden costs or premium features. Your privacy and the security of your content are our top priorities, as outlined in the statement below.

1. Introduction

This Privacy Statement explains how Qídé Studio (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, and protects your personal information when you use our Markdown Studio application (“the Application”).

2. Information We Collect

The Application does not collect or store any personal information on our servers. All data, including your Markdown documents, settings, and preferences (such as theme and auto-save settings), are stored locally in your browser using localStorage.

3. Auto-Save Feature

When enabled, the Application’s auto-save feature periodically saves your current document to your browser’s localStorage. This data never leaves your device and is not transmitted to any server. You can disable this feature at any time.

4. Offline Support

The Application uses a Service Worker to cache application files locally on your device, enabling offline functionality. This caching is purely for performance and offline access—no personal data or document content is transmitted to our servers.

5. How We Use Your Information

Since we do not collect any personal information, we do not use your data for any purpose. The Application processes your Markdown documents entirely within your browser.

6. Data Security

Your documents and settings are stored locally on your device. We recommend using up-to-date browsers and maintaining good security practices on your device to protect your data.

7. Third-Party Services

The Application uses CDN-hosted libraries for enhanced functionality:

These services do not receive any of your personal data or document content. They are loaded from content delivery networks (CDNs) solely to provide application functionality.

8. Changes to This Privacy Statement

We may update this Privacy Statement from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Statement on this page.
