Privacy Policy

How personal data is handled when you use TextUnicorn.

Last updated: August 2026

1. Controller

The controller responsible for the processing of personal data on this website is:

Ingo Schmitt
Unicorn Web Services
H 7, 36
68159 Mannheim
Germany

Email: [email protected]

2. General information

We take the protection of your personal data seriously.

Personal data is information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person.

We process personal data only where necessary to operate and secure this website, respond to enquiries, or comply with legal obligations.

3. Hosting and website delivery

This website is hosted and delivered using services provided by:

Cloudflare, Inc.
101 Townsend St.
San Francisco, CA 94107
United States

When you access this website, technical information required to deliver and secure the website may be processed. This may include, in particular:

  • your IP address
  • date and time of the request
  • requested URL or resource
  • browser and device information
  • operating system
  • referrer information
  • information required to detect and prevent malicious or abusive traffic

The processing is carried out for the purpose of providing the website reliably and securely and protecting it against attacks and misuse.

The legal basis for this processing is our legitimate interest in the secure and reliable operation of our website pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Cloudflare processes certain data on our behalf as a data processor.

Cloudflare operates an international network, and data may therefore be processed outside the European Economic Area, including in the United States. Cloudflare provides contractual and other safeguards for international data transfers in accordance with applicable data protection law.

4. Text entered into our tools

The text-processing tools provided by TextUnicorn operate locally in your browser.

Text that you enter, paste, upload or otherwise process using these tools is not transmitted to TextUnicorn servers for processing.

We therefore do not receive, store or analyse the contents you process with these tools.

Closing the page or deleting the content in your browser ends this local processing unless a particular tool explicitly states otherwise.

5. Cookies, local storage and consent management

TextUnicorn stores technically necessary preferences such as your selected language, appearance and privacy choice locally in your browser. These settings are used only to provide the functions you request.

Our consent banner lets you allow or reject optional analytics. You can withdraw or change your choice at any time through the “Privacy and cookie settings” link in the footer.

Where consent is legally required, non-essential storage or access to information on your device takes place only after you have consented. Subsequent processing is based on Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. You can withdraw consent at any time with effect for the future.

6. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google Ireland Limited, Gordon House, Barrow Street, Dublin 4, Ireland, only after you have explicitly consented.

Before consent, the Google Analytics tag is not loaded and no analytics request is sent. After consent, Analytics helps us understand which pages and text tools are used and how the website can be improved. The data processed may include page views, approximate location, device and browser information, and interactions such as running a tool, copying a result, or downloading it.

Text entered into or processed by our tools is not transmitted to Google Analytics.

Google Signals and personalised-advertising features are disabled in our Analytics configuration. Processing is based on your consent under Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. Data may also be processed by Google LLC in the United States using the safeguards required by applicable data protection law.

7. Google AdSense

Google AdSense is currently not active on TextUnicorn. We do not load the AdSense advertising script and do not display or measure advertisements.

Technical publisher information and the ads.txt file may remain available as preparation for a possible later launch. This does not itself cause AdSense data processing. Before advertising is activated, we will update this Privacy Policy and implement the required consent solution.

8. Contact by email

If you contact us by email, we process the information you provide, including your email address and the contents of your message, in order to respond to your enquiry.

Depending on the nature of your enquiry, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR where the communication relates to a contract or pre-contractual measures, or Article 6(1)(f) GDPR for other enquiries. Our legitimate interest is to respond to communications addressed to us.

We retain correspondence only for as long as necessary for the respective purpose, unless statutory retention obligations require longer storage.

9. Your data protection rights

Subject to the requirements of applicable law, you have the right to:

  • obtain information about personal data we process about you
  • request correction of inaccurate personal data
  • request deletion of your personal data
  • request restriction of processing
  • receive certain personal data in a portable format
  • object to processing based on legitimate interests
  • withdraw consent at any time with effect for the future

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with a competent data protection supervisory authority.

10. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy if our website, the technologies we use, or legal requirements change.

The current version is always available on this page.
