Privacy Policy
This Policy explains what personal data 테크인라이프 (Technologia tool) collects, how it is used, and your rights as a data subject.
01 Principles & Overview
테크인라이프, operating Technologia tool (the "Service"), respects your privacy and complies with the Korean Personal Information Protection Act, the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, and, where applicable, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). This Policy describes what personal data we collect, why we collect it, how long we keep it, and the rights available to you.
The Service provides file conversion and compression features. All processing is performed entirely within your browser. We apply a data-minimisation principle, collecting only what is necessary for the purposes described in this Policy.
Zero-Server File Processing
The files you convert or compress are never sent to our servers. All conversion and compression operations run locally inside your browser. We do not collect, store, or access the contents of your files.
02 Data We Collect
We collect and use the following categories of personal data.
| Data | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|
| Email address, account ID | Account identification & authentication | 30 days after account deletion |
| Browser fingerprint | Daily usage limits & abuse prevention | Deleted at midnight each day |
| Payment details (card number, etc.) | Subscription payment processing | Held by payment processor (Toss / Stripe) |
| Payment records (transaction ID, amount) | Tax & accounting purposes | 5 years (E-commerce Act) |
| IP address | Security & abuse detection | 90 days |
| Consent records | Legal dispute evidence | Duration of account |
※ We do not collect the files you convert or compress — all file processing happens inside your browser.
03 How We Collect Data
We collect personal data through the following channels.
- Account registration: Email address and consent records you provide when signing up.
- Payment process: Payment details and transaction records processed via our payment service providers (PSPs) when you subscribe to a paid plan.
- Automatic collection during use: IP address, browser fingerprint, and cookies collected automatically when you visit the Service.
04 Browser Fingerprint
We collect a browser fingerprint to manage daily usage limits for free-tier users and to defend against automated abuse. The fingerprint is a pseudonymous identifier derived from combinations of User-Agent, language, timezone, screen characteristics, and Canvas/WebGL signatures.
- Purpose: Applying daily usage limits per device/browser and detecting automated abuse.
- Retention: Deleted at midnight each day.
- Scope: The fingerprint does not include directly identifying information such as your name or national identification number.
05 Third-Party Sharing & Processors
We share or transfer certain personal data to the following third parties to operate the Service, process payments, deliver advertising, and ensure security. Each party is contractually required to process data only within the scope of its designated purpose.

| Stripe | International payment processing | Payment info, email |

| Cloudflare | CDN, security, Turnstile | IP, request logs |
07 Retention & Deletion
We delete or anonymise personal data without delay once the retention period has elapsed or the processing purpose has been fulfilled. Electronic files are permanently deleted in a manner that prevents recovery; printed records are shredded or incinerated.
Certain records must be retained for periods mandated by law. In particular, records relating to contracts, payments, and the supply of goods under the Act on the Consumer Protection in Electronic Commerce are retained for five years.
