Privacy policy

Effective date: October 2026

1. Everything runs on your device

Markdown Viewer is a fully client-side application. Your documents are rendered, compared, exported and auto-saved locally in your browser. We do not operate servers that receive, store or process your content.

2. Your documents

Your documents are never uploaded to us: we do not collect, receive or store them, and no network request made by this site contains your Markdown content.

3. Analytics

The editor itself makes no network requests, but this website counts visits with Google Analytics (Google LLC). It sets first-party cookies such as _ga and records the pages you view, the page you arrived from, your approximate location, and your browser and device type. It never receives the contents of your documents: your Markdown is not transmitted, and no request this site makes contains it.

You can block it without losing anything: the editor, the tools, the preview and every export keep working with analytics blocked, switched off or offline. Your browser's tracking protection, an ad blocker or Google's opt-out add-on all stop it.

4. Local storage

Your open documents and preferences are stored in your browser's localStorage. That data stays in your browser profile; clearing browser data will remove it. Export a backup from Settings (or the Export menu) to keep a copy on disk.

5. Opening files from a URL

If you choose to open a Markdown file from a URL, your browser fetches that URL directly. We never proxy or log it. Fonts and icons are served from this site's own assets, no external CDN calls.

6. Contact
