Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 10, 2026
FractalPark is an open-source fractal art explorer. You can browse, create, and save artworks on your own device without telling us anything. An account is only needed when you choose to keep cloud drafts or publish to the Community. This page says exactly what an account touches — and what it never does.
What an account stores
Your email address, used only to sign you in with one-time codes. There is no password. A display name you choose. It is private until you publish; published works show it as the attribution line. Your cloud drafts (private) and your published artworks (public), including the parameters a remix needs.
What we never collect
No passwords — sign-in codes go to your email and expire. No advertising trackers, no cross-site profiling, and no sale or sharing of personal data with data brokers. Product analytics never carry your account ID, email, artwork titles, formula source, draft contents, or artwork content.
Cookies
A secure HttpOnly session cookie keeps you signed in, and a small NEXT_LOCALE cookie remembers your language. Google Analytics uses first-party _ga cookies containing pseudonymous browser identifiers.
Analytics
Vercel Analytics measures basic site traffic without cookies. Google Analytics helps us understand feature usage through aggregate reports. FractalPark does not send account IDs, emails, titles, formula source, private record IDs, or artwork content, and does not set GA user_id. These providers may process network and device data needed for analytics. Advertising signals are disabled.
Email we send
Sign-in codes, always. Artwork backup emails, only if you turn them on. They are off by default. A backup email carries your artwork's complete configuration as an attachment; email is not encrypted storage, and we cannot retract an attachment once delivered. The setting page says this again before you enable it.
Private drafts, public works
Drafts are visible only to you. Publishing makes the artwork, its title and description, your display name, and the parameters public under the Community terms. Hidden or withdrawn works disappear from public view immediately.
Deleting your account
You can delete your account yourself, from the Gallery, at any time. Deletion asks for a fresh sign-in code and your typed email, then removes your drafts, withdraws your published works, ends your sessions, and erases your profile. A published work's attribution line remains as a tombstone so earlier remixes keep their source credit, and a minimal audit record (no email, no content) is kept for abuse investigation.
Where the data lives
Accounts and artworks are stored with our cloud database and hosting providers, on infrastructure we do not own. We choose mainstream providers and keep access keys off the client. Operational logs are short-lived and rate-limit records store only one-way hashes.
Changes and contact
If this policy changes in a way that affects you, the change ships in the open-source repository and this page's date moves. Questions, requests, and takedown reports: contact@fractalpark.com.
