We never use your information for advertising, profiling, or sell it to any third party — ever.
4. Data Storage & Security
Saved PIN Codes that you bookmark using our Save feature are stored exclusively in your browser’s localStorage. This means:

- Your saved PIN Codes persist across browser sessions until you manually clear them or clear your browser data
- Saved data is device and browser specific — it will not sync to other devices or browsers
While we implement reasonable security measures, no website can guarantee absolute security. We recommend not storing any sensitive personal information in your saved PIN Codes list.
