Privacy Policy

The most important thing

We designed the tool this way on purpose. We have no interest in your passwords, and no technical ability to collect them even if we wanted to.

Who we are

QPasswordStrong is a free online password strength analysis tool available at qpasswordstrong.com. Our mission is to help everyday people understand and improve their password security — for free, with no registration required.

What information we collect

We collect minimal data to operate the website. This includes:

• Usage data — pages visited, time on site, browser type, and general geographic region (country/city level). This is collected anonymously via Google Analytics.
• Technical data — IP addresses and server logs collected automatically by our hosting provider (Netlify) for security and performance purposes.

We do not collect names, email addresses, passwords, or any personally identifiable information unless you contact us directly.

You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings or by visiting aboutads.info.

We also use Google Analytics which places cookies to help us understand how visitors use the site. This data is anonymized and aggregated — we cannot identify individual users.
