Privacy Policy
Summary
Morse Code Coach has no user accounts and no server-side database of learners. Everything the trainer knows about you — your name, lessons completed, XP, badges and settings — is stored in your own browser using localStorage and never leaves your device unless you copy a backup code yourself.
1. Data stored in your browser
When you complete the first lesson, the trainer asks for a name. The name and your progress are saved under the key morse-code-coach.v1 in your browser’s local storage. You can view, export (“Create backup code”), import or delete this data at any time from the ⚙️ settings inside the app (“Reset all progress”), or by clearing site data in your browser. We cannot see this data.
2. Server logs
Like every website, our hosting provider may keep standard access logs (IP address, browser type, requested page, timestamp) for security and capacity planning. These logs are not used to identify or profile individual learners.
3. Fonts
The site loads the Outfit, Inter and JetBrains Mono typefaces from Google Fonts. Your browser therefore sends a request to fonts.googleapis.com and fonts.gstatic.com, which reveals your IP address to Google. Google states that it does not use these requests for advertising profiles. If you prefer, blocking these domains only changes the typeface; the trainer keeps working.
4. Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 (measurement ID G-BNXL2TB2JY) to understand which parts of the trainer and the guide are used, for example how many learners finish a lesson. Google Analytics 4 does not store IP addresses and we do not send any name or progress data to it — only page views and anonymous events such as “lesson completed”. Google Analytics sets first-party cookies (for example _ga) to distinguish returning visitors. You can block Google Analytics for all sites with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
5. Advertising
To keep the trainer free, we may display advertisements served by Google AdSense. When ads are active, Google and its certified partners may use cookies and similar technologies to show ads based on your visits to this and other websites, and to measure ad performance. Morse Code Coach is made for the United States market. If you visit from a region where a consent dialog is required by law, Google may show one before setting advertising cookies, and you can change your choice at any time via the “Privacy settings” link in that dialog.

We do not sell personal data.
6. Children
The trainer is suitable for all ages and collects no personal information beyond the optional first name stored locally. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children.
7. Your rights
Because we hold no personal data about you on our servers, the fastest way to exercise your rights of access or erasure is to use the export and reset functions inside the app. For any other request, or if you believe a third party listed above is processing your data unlawfully, contact us at hello@morsecodecoach.com and we will help.
8. Changes
We will update this page when our practices change and adjust the effective date above.
