Who runs Smocky
Smocky is operated by an individual developer publishing as coregatekit, who is responsible for the personal data described below. Questions and requests reach that person at joesm.genie@gmail.com.
What Smocky does with what you type
Smocky's tools run in your browser. Text, files, and results you work with are processed on your device and are not transmitted to Smocky's servers. There is no account or sign-in. Feedback you deliberately send is described separately below.
Feedback you choose to send
When feedback is available, pressing its send control sends the fields you enter to Smocky via Cloudflare, a third-party service. This includes the referenced tool, if any; bug reports also include your browser information. Tool inputs, results, files, full page URLs and email addresses are never attached automatically. Examples are entered by you. Please do not include sensitive information. No email or account is required.
Feedback is private and used to understand bugs and improve tools. Only the operator and explicitly authorized Cloudflare account administrators can read it. There is no public list, automatic email forwarding or public issue creation. Drafts stay in page memory until you send them; refreshing clears them.
The feedback service is configured to delete submissions after 30 days in a daily cleanup, allowing up to one additional day. Cloudflare database recovery copies may remain for up to 30 additional days. Smocky does not export feedback backups. Persistent application logs are disabled for this service; Cloudflare still processes network and security metadata under its own policy, as described below. Feedback remains unavailable until these service settings have been verified.
Hosting and server logs
Smocky is a static export served by Cloudflare Pages. Like any web host, Cloudflare processes standard request data — such as IP address, user agent, and requested URL — to deliver the site and protect it from abuse. The legal basis for this processing is legitimate interest in keeping the site available and secure. That data is retained by Cloudflare under its own retention policy rather than by Smocky; see Cloudflare's privacy policy.
Cloudflare and Google both operate globally, so this processing may take place outside your country, including in the United States, under the safeguards those providers publish.
Advertising
Smocky may display ads served by Google AdSense on some pages. Where ads run, third-party vendors including Google use cookies and similar identifiers to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other sites. You can learn more or opt out at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites and myadcenter.google.com. Ad scripts load only on pages that show ads; this page loads no AdSense script.
Consent in the EU and UK
Personalised advertising will not be served to visitors in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom until a consent management platform is in place to ask for, record, and honour that choice. Until then, no consent is collected because no advertising cookies are set for those visitors.
Storage on your device
Feedback sets no cookies and uses no persistent browser storage. Appearance preferences may be stored on your device. Third-party ad scripts may set cookies or use similar identifiers where ads run, as described above.
No analytics
Smocky does not use analytics. No first-party analytics or tracking script is loaded on this site.
Your rights
Where data protection law applies to you — including Thailand's PDPA, the EU and UK GDPR, and comparable laws elsewhere — you have rights of access, correction, erasure, objection, and portability over personal data processed about you, and the right to complain to your local supervisory authority.
Requests may concern feedback you sent, request data described under Hosting and server logs, or ad identifiers described under Advertising. For feedback, include its receipt identifier if you have it so the operator can locate it. Email the address above to exercise any of these rights; expect a reply within 30 days.
Children
Smocky is a general-audience site and does not knowingly collect data from children.
Changes
Changes to this policy are published on this page with a new effective date.
