Privacy Policy

INKDEW ("we") runs INKDEW Odia Converter. Many people convert unpublished manuscripts and official documents here, so we keep as little as we can.

Your text

• Conversion text reaches our server. Conversion does not happen only in your browser: the text you convert is sent over HTTPS to our server, converted in memory and sent back.
• It is not retained. We do not write source or converted text to our database, files or logs, and we keep no conversion history of contents. Uploaded TXT files are read in memory and discarded.
• We never use your text to train AI models, never share it with advertisers and never send it to analytics tools.

What we store

• Account data: your name, email address and, if you give them, phone number, organisation and profession. Your password is stored only as an Argon2id hash.
• Sessions: a hash of your sign-in token, its creation and last-use time and your browser's user-agent string, so you can see and end your sessions.
• Usage metadata: for each conversion — time, direction (for example Akruti Sarala → Unicode), word and character count, plan, success or failure and duration. This enforces the Free allowance (100 a month) and shows your dashboard.
• Billing data: the plan, amount, dates, status and Razorpay's order and payment IDs. Card, UPI and bank details are entered on Razorpay's checkout and never reach us.
• Support messages you send us, and an audit log of security and billing events on your account (for example a password change or a pass being activated).

How long

Account data, usage metadata and audit entries are kept while your account exists. When you delete your account we erase your profile, sessions and usage counters; conversion metadata, payment records and support messages are kept without any link to you, because tax and accounting rules require payment records to be retained.

Who else processes data

• Pabbly Studio hosts the application and its database.
• Razorpay processes payments under its own privacy policy.
• Resend delivers our account emails (verification, password reset, payment confirmation).
• Google Fonts serves the typefaces this site uses, so your browser contacts Google when pages load.

Cookies and storage

We set one cookie, an HttpOnly session cookie that keeps you signed in. Your light or dark mode choice is remembered in your browser's local storage. There are no advertising or tracking cookies.
