Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 28, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how ArDraw ("we," "our," "us," or "ArDraw") collects, uses, discloses, and safeguards information when you visit or use ardraw.live(the "Site") and our browser-based AR drawing and sketch tracing tool (the "Service"). Please read this privacy policy carefully. Your continued use of the Site constitutes your acceptance of these practices.
1. Information We Collect
ArDraw is designed to work without requiring you to create an account or log in. Because of this, we collect far less personal information than most websites. That said, certain data is collected automatically or with your permission in order for the Service to function properly and to support our operations.
1.1 Camera Access
ArDraw's core Sketch Mode (AR) feature requires access to your device's camera to overlay a drawing outline onto your physical drawing surface in real time. This camera feed is processed locally in your browser to display the live overlay. We do not record, store, transmit, or upload your camera feed to our servers, and we do not retain any images or video captured through your camera. Camera access is only used to render the live tracing guide on your screen and is requested through your browser's standard permission prompt, which you may deny or revoke at any time directly from your browser or device settings.
1.2 Automatically Collected Information
We do not collect or log your IP address. When you visit ardraw.live, our servers and third-party service providers may automatically log certain technical information, including browser type and version, device type, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, time and date of visit, time spent on pages, and general usage patterns. This information is collected through standard server logs, cookies, and analytics tools, and is used in aggregate to understand how the Service is used and to improve performance and reliability.
1.3 Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies (such as local storage and pixel tags) to operate and improve the Site. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us remember your preferences, understand usage trends, and serve relevant content and advertising. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings; however, disabling cookies may affect the functionality of certain features on the Site.
1.4 Information You Provide Voluntarily
If you contact us through our Contact Us page, submit feedback, or send us an email, we collect the information you choose to provide, such as your name, email address, and the content of your message. We use this information solely to respond to your inquiry and to improve our Service.
2. Google AdSense, Advertising, and Third-Party Vendors
ArDraw uses Google AdSense and may use other third-party advertising networks to display advertisements on the Site. These third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to ardraw.live and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings at adssettings.google.com.
- You may also visit www.aboutads.info to opt out of third-party vendor use of cookies for personalized advertising, where available.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on your past visits to our Site or other websites on the Internet.
We do not control the cookies or tracking technologies used by third-party advertisers, and this Privacy Policy does not cover their practices. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party ad networks for more information about how they collect and use data.
3. Analytics
We use third-party analytics services, including Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity, to help us understand how visitors use the Site. These services may collect information such as how often users visit the Site, what pages they view, how they interact with page elements, and what other sites they used prior to coming to ardraw.live. Microsoft Clarity uses session recordings and heatmaps to help us understand user behavior and improve the user experience. This information is used in aggregate form and helps us improve the Service. Analytics providers may set their own cookies to perform this service; please refer to the relevant provider's privacy policy for more detail.
4. How We Use Information
We use the information we collect to: operate, maintain, and improve the Service; monitor and analyze usage and trends; detect, prevent, and address technical issues or abuse; respond to your inquiries and provide customer support; display relevant advertising through Google AdSense and other partners; and comply with applicable legal obligations.
5. Data Sharing and Disclosure
We do not sell your personal information. We may share only the minimum necessary information with trusted third-party partners who help us operate the Site (such as hosting providers, analytics services, and advertising networks), and strictly to the extent required for them to perform their services. We may also be required to disclose information when mandated by law, to safeguard our legal rights, or as part of a business transition such as a merger or acquisition.
6. Children's Privacy
ArDraw is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you suspect a child has submitted personal information to us, please get in touch right away and we will act promptly to delete it.
7. Data Security
We implement appropriate technical and organizational safeguards to protect the information we collect against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Your Choices and Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal information, including the right to access, correct, or delete data we hold about you, and the right to opt out of certain data processing activities, including personalized advertising. To exercise these rights, please contact us using the details below.
9. Third-Party Links
The Site may contain links to third-party websites that are not operated by us. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these external sites, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies separately.
