Data
What the site keeps
Here is what the site stores, where and why.
| What | Where it lives | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Theme choice (light or dark) | Your browser's local storage | So the site opens in the theme you picked |
| Studio drawings and settings | Your browser's local storage | So your work is there when you come back. We never receive it |
| Font requests | Google Fonts | The site loads its fonts from Google, which sees your IP address when it sends them |
| Server logs | The host that serves the site | Normal request logs kept by the host |
| Pro licence key, if you add one | Your browser's local storage | So the icon browser does not ask for the key again |
| Pro licence key, sent when you use a Pro style | The icons host and the licence service | The browser sends the key with each request for a Pro style. The icons host passes it to the licence service to check that your subscription is active |
| Pro subscription details | The licence service | It keeps your email and key linked to your subscription |
| Email you send us | Our inbox | To read and answer your message |
Limits
What the site does not do
Free use needs no account, and the site has no ads.
Free use has no sign-in and no forms. The site sets no ad cookies. Copying a free icon and using Studio happen in your browser and send nothing to us. If you add a Pro licence key, the browser saves it in local storage and sends it to the icons host with each request for a Pro style. The icons host passes it to the licence service, which checks that your subscription is active and keeps the email and key linked to it.
If this changes, for example if we add analytics, this page will say so first.

Questions
Does UIX Icons use cookies?
The site sets no ad cookies. It keeps your theme choice, your Studio work and your Pro licence key, if you add one, in your browser's local storage, so they are there when you return. You can clear that storage in your browser settings at any time. This draft will say so first if we add analytics.
Does the site have accounts or sign-in?
Not on this site. You can browse, search, copy icons and use Studio without telling us who you are. Pro subscribers add a licence key, and the licence service keeps their email and key. If you email us, we keep your message so we can reply.
Where does my Pro licence key go?
If you add a key in the icon browser, it is saved in your browser's local storage. The browser sends it to the icons host only with requests for Pro styles. The icons host passes it to the licence service, which checks that your subscription is active. Clear the site's data in your browser settings to remove it.
Are my Studio drawings uploaded?
No. Your drawings stay in your browser and are never sent to us. Clearing the site's data in your browser settings also deletes them, so export an SVG of anything you want to keep. We have no copy to restore if you lose them.
Does the site use Google Fonts?
Yes. The site loads its fonts from Google Fonts, and Google sees your IP address when it sends them. We do not send Google anything else. This draft has not been reviewed by a lawyer yet. We use them only to show the page.
