Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 8, 2026. Your privacy and the security of your IoT simulations are our top priorities.
1. Introduction
Welcome to IoT Simulator. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy will inform you as to how we look after your personal data when you visit our website and tell you about your privacy rights and how the law protects you.
2. The Data We Collect
IoTSimulator is built to be minimal and privacy-first. Virtual circuits and simulation sketches run directly inside your web browser. We only collect the minimal information necessary to deliver and save your work:
- Account Credentials: If you register an account, we store your chosen username, email address, and a securely hashed password so you can access your workbench across devices. Guest sessions do not require registration and save circuits locally in your browser storage.
- Project & Circuit Data: When you choose to save a project, we store your circuit diagram layout, wire connections, and source code sketches in your personal library.
- Essential Session Data: Standard HTTP connection data (such as temporary session cookies and basic browser compatibility information) required to maintain your login and render responsive interactive canvas graphics. We do not inspect, track, or collect your device operating system or private machine configurations.
3. How We Use Your Personal Data
We will only use your personal data when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we will use your personal data in the following circumstances:
- To register you as a maker and manage your personal project workbench.
- To provide the real-time simulation environment and securely persist your circuits.
- To improve our website, simulation engines, and developer user experience.
- To notify you about important updates or service changes.
4. Data Security
We have put in place appropriate security measures to prevent your personal data from being accidentally lost, used or accessed in an unauthorized way, altered or disclosed. In addition, we limit access to your personal data to authorized system services.
For your project data, we use industry-standard encryption in transit (TLS) and at rest to help ensure your personal circuits remain safe.
5. Data Sharing & Disclosure
We do not sell your personal data. We only share information with critical cloud infrastructure providers (such as hosting and database services) necessary to operate the simulator.
6. Your Legal Rights
Under data protection laws, you have the right to access, correct, or request erasure of your personal data at any time from your Account Settings.
7. Advertising Partners
We partner with Google AdSense and third-party advertising partners to display advertisements on our website. Google uses cookies, including the DoubleClick cookie, to serve ads based on your visit to this and other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
