8D Text (8DT) Privacy Policy
8D Text (8DT) respects your intellectual properties, copyrights, and privacy. The privacy-first approach at 8DT is architectural, embedded in how the tool is engineered from the ground up.
File Processing
All text file merging, splitting, dividing, and cutting operations at 8DT happen entirely within your browser through client-side JavaScript. Your files load into your browser's local memory, undergo processing on your device's processor, and download directly back to your device. The 8DT server delivers the web application code and plays zero role in handling, receiving, or storing your files. Your files, your file names, and your file contents remain exclusively on your device throughout every operation.
Data Collection, Cookies, and Tracking
8DT collects zero personal data. 8DT places zero cookies on your device. 8DT runs zero analytics scripts, tracking pixels, advertising tags, or fingerprinting mechanisms. 8DT requires zero registration and maintains zero user accounts.
The sole use of browser localStorage is to remember two preferences: your selected visual theme (light or dark) and your preferred merge mode. Both values reside entirely on your device within your browser and are never transmitted anywhere.
Server Logs
Web servers record certain technical details as part of standard operation. When your browser requests a page from 8dt.net, the web server may log the IP address of the requesting device, the date and time of the request, the URL path requested, and the type and version of the browser making the request. Server logs serve standard operational purposes including security monitoring and performance analysis. Server logs contain only technical request data. Your file contents and file processing activity remain entirely within your browser and are absent from server logs.
Internet Infrastructure
Visiting 8dt.net involves standard internet routing. Domain name resolution services, internet service providers, and network infrastructure operators can observe that your device is communicating with 8dt.net, as well as the timing and volume of communications. 8DT uses encrypted HTTPS connections, which protect the content of data transfers between your browser and the 8DT server. The existence of the connection itself remains visible to internet infrastructure participants, as is standard with all web traffic worldwide.
Third-Party Resources
8DT integrates open-source JavaScript libraries and CSS frameworks. External resources operate under their own respective privacy policies and data handling practices. When your browser retrieves resources from external providers, the external providers may collect connection-level data according to their own published policies. 8DT selects external resources with care, while acknowledging that users who seek maximum network privacy may wish to configure their browser or use appropriate browser tools to manage external resource loading.
Your Browser and System Environment
The 8DT information architecture keeps all file processing and content within your browser, accessible only to you on your own device. At the same time, your browser, operating system, and any applications running on your device operate within their own permissions, independently of 8DT. Installed applications, browser extensions, accessibility tools, and system-level software may have visibility into content displayed on your screen. 8DT has no visibility into or influence over what other software on your device can observe. Users handling sensitive content are encouraged to consider their full system environment as part of their overall privacy practice.
Intellectual Property
8DT processes the files you choose to work with and returns the generated output directly to you as a local download. The 8DT tool stores nothing from your session. Files are never transmitted to any external location at any point during the processing lifecycle. 8DT claims no ownership interest in your files, your merged output, or your split output. Rights belong to whoever holds rights under applicable law. 8DT uses no materials processed through the tool to train, develop, or improve any artificial intelligence system, machine learning model, or automated dataset of any kind.
Changes to the 8DT Privacy Policy
8DT may update the present privacy policy as the service evolves. Continued use of 8DT following any update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy. Reviewing the privacy policy page periodically helps you stay informed of any changes.
