Privacy Policy

Last Modified: September 09, 2026

Inwoovation Engineering Lab ("Inwoovation", "we", "our", or "us") operates the website inwoovation.com. We are committed to protecting user privacy and ensuring transparent handling of data in compliance with international privacy standards, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA).

1. Scope and Nature of Services

Inwoovation is an open-access scientific engineering portal and computational simulation platform. Users can browse technical articles, run browser-based CEA microclimate calculators, and access simulation tools without registration or providing personal identifiable information (PII).

2. Information Automatically Collected

When you visit or interact with our site, standard non-identifying technical metadata may be logged automatically by our servers or analytics providers:

• Internet Protocol (IP) address (anonymized/truncated where required by GDPR)
• Browser type, operating system, and hardware architecture
• Pages visited, referring URL, timestamp, and session duration
• Client-side calculation inputs (processed 100% locally in your browser and never transmitted to our backend)

3. Use of Cookies and Third-Party Advertising (Google AdSense)

We use standard HTTP cookies and local storage to optimize user experience, remember interface preferences, and serve contextually relevant advertisements:

• Google AdSense & Third-Party Cookies: Google and its certified advertising partners use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other sites on the internet.
• Personalized Advertising Opt-Out: Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or through the Network Advertising Initiative.
• Browser Cookie Controls: You can configure your browser to block, refuse, or alert you about cookies at any time. Note that blocking cookies does not disable any computational simulation engines.

4. Data Controller and GDPR Compliance

Under the GDPR, Inwoovation acts as the Data Controller for technical log data. Our legal basis for processing non-identifying server logs is legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR) to maintain site security, prevent DDoS attacks, and troubleshoot server performance.

5. Commercial Purchases & Payment Processing (Polar.sh)

For commercial software licenses and Pro Pack purchases, transactions are processed directly by our merchant of record, Polar (polar.sh). Inwoovation does not collect, store, or process credit card numbers or banking credentials. Please review the Polar Privacy Policy for purchase-related data disclosures.
