Privacy Policy

Introduction

At ScormMaker, privacy is not just a feature—it's our foundation. Our local SCORM converter is designed from the ground up to ensure your PowerPoint files and data remain completely private and secure.

This Privacy Policy explains how ScormMaker handles (or rather, doesn't handle) your data when you use our free PPT to SCORM conversion service.

1. Our Core Privacy Principle

Unlike traditional online converters that require uploading your files to cloud servers, our local SCORM converter ensures complete data privacy by design.

2. Data We Do NOT Collect

When you use ScormMaker's PowerPoint to SCORM conversion service, we do NOT collect, store, or process:

• Your PowerPoint files: All PPT/PPTX files remain on your device during conversion
• File contents: We never access the content, text, images, or data within your presentations
• SCORM output: Generated SCORM packages are created and stored locally in your browser
• Personal information: No names, email addresses, or account registration required
• File metadata: No file names, sizes, or modification dates are transmitted
• Conversion history: We don't track what files you've converted or when

3. How Local Processing Works

Our free SCORM converter uses advanced browser technologies to perform conversions entirely on your device:

1. File Selection: You select a PowerPoint file from your device using the browser's file picker
2. Local Processing: The conversion engine runs in your browser using Web Workers
3. SCORM Generation: The SCORM package is assembled in your browser's memory
4. Direct Download: The final SCORM ZIP file is downloaded directly to your device

At no point during this process does your PowerPoint file or its contents leave your device or get transmitted to our servers.

4. Minimal Data We May Collect

To maintain and improve ScormMaker, we may collect minimal, anonymized technical data:

• Anonymous usage statistics: Page views, conversion button clicks (no file data)
• Technical diagnostics: Browser type, device type, error logs (no personal identifiers)
• Performance metrics: Conversion speed, success rates (aggregated data only)

This data is collected using privacy-respecting analytics tools and cannot be linked to individual users or specific files.

5. Cookies and Local Storage

ScormMaker uses minimal browser storage for functionality:

• Essential cookies: Required for basic site functionality (e.g., remembering your theme preference)
• Local storage: Used temporarily during PPT to SCORM conversion to process files in your browser
• No tracking cookies: We do not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies

All data stored locally is automatically cleared when you close your browser or complete the conversion.

6. Third-Party Services

ScormMaker may use the following third-party services:

• Web hosting: Our website is hosted on secure servers, but no user files are stored on these servers
• Analytics: Privacy-focused analytics to understand aggregate usage patterns (no personal data)
• CDN: Content delivery networks for faster page loading (no user data transmitted)

These services do not have access to your PowerPoint files or SCORM output.

7. LMS Platform Compatibility

ScormMaker generates SCORM packages compatible with various LMS platforms including:

• Moodle SCORM: Compatible with Moodle's SCORM player
• Canvas SCORM: Ready for Canvas LMS import
• Blackboard SCORM: Works with Blackboard Learn and Ultra

Once you upload the SCORM package to your LMS, that platform's privacy policy applies. We are not responsible for how LMS platforms handle your content after upload.

8. Data Security

As a secure SCORM converter, ScormMaker implements multiple security measures:

• HTTPS encryption: All website traffic is encrypted with SSL/TLS
• No server-side processing: Your files never reach our servers, eliminating server-side security risks
• Browser sandboxing: Conversion runs in isolated browser contexts
• No data retention: Since we don't collect files, there's no data to breach

The best security is not storing your data in the first place—that's the ScormMaker approach.

9. GDPR Compliance

ScormMaker is GDPR-compliant by design:

• Data minimization: We collect only essential, anonymized data
• No personal data processing: Your PowerPoint files are not processed on our servers
• Right to be forgotten: Not applicable—we don't store your data
• Data portability: All your files remain on your device
• Consent: No consent required for file processing since it's local

Our local SCORM converter architecture inherently satisfies GDPR requirements.

10. Children's Privacy

ScormMaker does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Since our PowerPoint to SCORM converter operates locally and doesn't collect user data, it can be safely used by educators and students of all ages.

11. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. However, our core principle of local processing and zero data collection will remain unchanged.

12. Your Rights

With ScormMaker's free SCORM converter, you automatically have:

• Complete control: Your files never leave your device
• Full ownership: You own all PowerPoint files and SCORM output
• No vendor lock-in: No accounts, no subscriptions, no dependencies
• Transparency: Our local processing approach is clear and verifiable
