Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-05-03

Introduction

This privacy policy explains how debate-night-evidence-sorter.hub2.day (“the site”, “we”, “us”) handles information when you use Debate Night Evidence Sorter. The site helps you paste in a claim or topic people are arguing about and get a structured breakdown of the strongest arguments on both sides, common logical fallacies to watch for, and how to find reliable sources. This policy covers browser-local inputs, contact email, server/security logs, cookies/local storage, Google AdSense/advertising, GDPR/EEA/UK consent where applicable, CCPA/CPRA-style choices where applicable, service providers, retention, children, security, third-party links, international processing, and how to contact us.

Information We Collect

1. Browser-local project inputs

When you paste a claim or topic into Debate Night Evidence Sorter, that text is processed in your browser and/or on our servers to generate the structured breakdown. We do not sell your inputs. Where possible, processing may occur locally in your browser. If data is sent to our servers, it is used only to provide the requested breakdown and is not used to identify you.

2. Contact email

If you contact us at hello@debate-night-evidence-sorter.hub2.day, we will use your email address and message only to respond to your request. We do not add your address to marketing lists or share it with unrelated third parties.

3. Server and security logs

Our hosting provider may automatically log technical information such as IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, pages visited, and timestamps. These logs are used for security, abuse prevention, debugging, and basic analytics. Logs are retained only as long as necessary and are not used to build long-term profiles of individual visitors.

4. Cookies and local storage

The site may use cookies and similar technologies (including localStorage and sessionStorage) to:

• remember your preferences (e.g., consent choices, display settings);
• support core functionality (e.g., keeping your session active);
• deliver and measure advertising via Google AdSense.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect site functionality.

5. Google AdSense and advertising

We use Google AdSense to display ads. Google and its partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites. This may include:

• using a cookie to serve ads based on prior visits (interest-based advertising);
• using a limited data signal to select ads (contextual advertising).

Where required by law, we will seek your consent before using non-essential advertising cookies.

GDPR/EEA/UK Consent (where applicable)

If you are located in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or other regions with similar laws, we rely on appropriate legal bases to process data, such as:

• your consent (e.g., for non-essential cookies and personalized ads);
• legitimate interests (e.g., security, fraud prevention, basic analytics);
• performance of a service you request (e.g., generating a breakdown of arguments).

Where consent is required, we will ask you before setting non-essential cookies or processing data for personalized advertising. You can withdraw consent at any time by adjusting your cookie choices or contacting us.

CCPA/CPRA-style Choices (where applicable)

If you are a California resident (or in another jurisdiction with similar rights), you may have the right to:

• know what personal information is collected and how it is used;
• request deletion of certain personal information;
• opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising;
• non-discrimination for exercising your rights.

To exercise these rights, contact us at hello@debate-night-evidence-sorter.hub2.day. We will verify your request as required by law. We do not knowingly sell personal information. Where required, we will honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals or similar opt-out signals.

Service Providers

We use third-party service providers to host the site, deliver content, and serve ads (such as Google AdSense). These providers may process data on our behalf under contracts that require them to protect your information and use it only for the purposes we specify.
