What Teenwork collects, and what it does not

The short version

• We do not require an account, ask for your name, or store any information you type into the lookup widget.
• The lookup widget runs entirely in your browser. The state, age, and school-status values never leave your device.
• We use one theme cookie-equivalent — localStorage entry teenwork-theme — to remember whether you chose dark or light mode.
• We may serve third-party advertising in the future (Google AdSense). When that happens, those third parties handle their own tracking under their own privacy policies, summarized below.
• We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Information we collect

Teenwork does not have user accounts, comment sections, contact forms, or any feature that asks you to submit personal information. The site is a static set of pages plus a client-side lookup widget.

Like any website, our hosting provider (Coolify behind Cloudflare) records standard server-side request logs — IP address, user-agent string, requested URL, timestamp, and HTTP status — for ordinary security and performance purposes. These logs are retained for a short rolling window and are not linked to any identity.

The dark/light theme toggle stores a single value in your browser's localStorage (key: teenwork-theme, value: light or dark). It is stored only on your device and is never transmitted to us. You can clear it any time via your browser's site-data controls.

Third-party advertising

Teenwork may serve advertising through Google AdSense. When that is enabled, Google and its partner ad networks may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies on this site to serve and measure advertising. Those technologies are controlled by Google, not by Teenwork.

You can review Google's privacy practices and adjust your ad personalization settings at policies.google.com/technologies/ads. If you are in the EEA, UK, or another region that requires a consent banner, one will be shown when advertising is enabled.

Children

A meaningful share of Teenwork visitors are minors looking up the rules that apply to their own potential employment. The site collects no personal information from any visitor, child or adult, and complies with the US Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) as a result. We do not knowingly retain information identifying any user under 13.

Your rights (GDPR, CCPA)

Because Teenwork does not collect personal information, there is generally nothing on our side to access, correct, port, or delete. Hosting-level request logs are not used to build any user-level dataset and roll off automatically. If you nonetheless have a question or want to exercise a right under GDPR, the UK Data Protection Act, the California Consumer Privacy Act, or any comparable law, see the contact path on the About page.

Changes to this policy

We will update the "Effective" date at the top of this page when material changes are made. Continued use of the site after a change constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
