Russian Keyboard - Privacy Policy

Privacy Policy

Last Updated: October 2026

At RussianKeyboard.org, safeguarding the privacy of our visitors and users is one of our primary commitments. This Privacy Policy document describes in transparent detail what information we collect, what we do not collect, and how we handle and protect your personal data when you use our website, online Russian Cyrillic keyboards, speech-to-text dictation tools, text-to-speech readers, and translation services.

1. Zero Keystroke & Content Logging Policy

We believe your typing and personal correspondence belong strictly to you. RussianKeyboard.org operates under a strict privacy-first principle:

No Keystroke Tracking: We do NOT record, monitor, store, or log keystrokes typed on our on-screen keyboard or physical keyboard transpositions.
Local Text Processing: Text composed inside our text editors remains in your browser's active memory or in your device's private local storage (localStorage) strictly for your personal convenience (e.g., maintaining drafts or recent history). It is never sent to our servers for profiling or archival.
Microphone & Audio Privacy: When you use our Speech-to-Text (voice typing) tool, your microphone is accessed only after your explicit permission and exclusively while the dictation button is active. We never record, save, harvest, or sell your voice audio.

2. Information We Collect Automatically

Like virtually all standard web servers, RussianKeyboard.org automatically logs basic non-personally identifiable diagnostic information when you access our site. These server log files may include:

Internet Protocol (IP) addresses (anonymized where applicable).
Browser user agent, browser language, and operating system version.
Referring pages, exit pages, date/time stamps, and approximate general geographic location (country or city level).

This technical data is used solely for system administration, detecting denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks, diagnosing technical bugs, and monitoring aggregate site traffic trends. It is never linked to personally identifiable information.

3. Cookies & Third-Party Advertising (Google AdSense)

RussianKeyboard.org uses standard HTTP cookies to support core website functionality and to deliver advertisements through our trusted advertising partner, Google AdSense:

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to our website or other websites on the Internet.
Google's use of advertising cookies (such as the DoubleClick DART cookie) enables it and its partners to serve targeted ads based on your visit to RussianKeyboard.org and/or other sites on the Internet.
You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.
You can also control or disable cookies directly through your web browser preferences (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, Opera). Please note that disabling cookies may affect certain visual features or preferences.

4. Analytics & Performance Metrics

We may use privacy-compliant web analytics solutions (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors navigate our tools, which language sections are most popular, and how page load times can be improved. Analytics data is aggregated, anonymized, and does not identify individual visitors.

5. Data Protection Rights (GDPR & CCPA/CPRA)

We respect the privacy rights of users worldwide:

General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR - EU/EEA): European residents have the right to request access to any personal data we hold, request rectification of inaccurate data, request erasure of their data, object to or restrict certain data processing, and exercise data portability rights.
California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA / CPRA): California residents have the right to know what categories of personal data are collected, request deletion of their personal information, and be free from discrimination for exercising privacy rights. RussianKeyboard.org does NOT sell or share personal data to data brokers or commercial third parties.

6. Data Security

We maintain strict administrative and technical safeguards to protect your experience. RussianKeyboard.org enforces end-to-end HTTPS encryption (TLS 1.3 / SSL) across 100% of its web pages, ensuring that all data in transit between your browser and our servers is shielded from eavesdropping, interception, or tampering.

7. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

Protecting the online privacy of children is especially important to us. RussianKeyboard.org is a general-audience educational and linguistic resource and does not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from children under the age of 13. If a parent or guardian believes that a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately, and we will promptly remove such information from our records.

8. Updates to this Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time in response to evolving legal, regulatory, or operational requirements. When changes are made, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy. We encourage users to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we protect their privacy.
