Privacy Policy
Last updated: January 24, 2026
On this page, "we" means GalataJ. "You" means the visitor of our public websites, or the end-user of our IDE plugins, or the legal entity who is the licensee or the user of our product or service — as applicable to the subject matter.
This privacy policy applies to both personal information (which can be attributed to a specific individual) and non-personal information that are collected by us on our websites or in our products.
Data Collected on Our Website
Any data that is entered into any form on galataj.com website is only used for the indicated purposes. With the exceptions listed below, we will never give away any personal information including your e-mail address to any third party.
We collect anonymous website usage statistics. We also use HTTP cookies to collect the information about how you navigate through our website. We use that information to improve our website usability, and the cookies are anonymous, i.e., they are not linked with the data that you enter into forms on the website. You can safely disable cookies on our website.
Use of Cloudflare
We use Cloudflare, Inc. ("Cloudflare") as a content delivery network and security service to protect and optimize our website. Cloudflare analyzes the traffic between your browser and our website and filters out potentially malicious requests from the Internet.
In doing so, Cloudflare may also use cookies, but these are used solely for security and performance purposes. The legal basis for using Cloudflare is our legitimate interest in ensuring the security, availability, and efficiency of our website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
Product Activation and License Checks
Our products may require an activation with the license key, as well as periodically verify license validity by connecting to our servers. As a part of license checks, some information may be transferred to us:
- Versions of the product, platform, operating system
- The license key
- Some information allowing to bind an activated copy to a particular machine
This information is transferred to our servers encrypted via HTTPS. We never store the received information as plain text, instead we store hash codes or a mangled form of the plain text such that it cannot be recovered by itself. As a result, the collected information by itself does not allow globally identifying the machine or the user.
We may use this information for license validation, analysis and support of the end users.
Product Updates
Our IDE plugins (IntelliJ, VS Code) may periodically check for available updates by connecting to our servers or the respective plugin marketplaces. As a part of update checks, some information may be transferred: versions of the product, platform, operating system.
We may use this information for analysis, verification and support of the end users.
Anonymous Usage Statistics
Our products may include an option to collect usage statistics and transfer them to our servers to help us improve future versions of the product. The information transferred does not contain any personally identifiable information.
Products that have this capability also have a configuration option to turn off the statistics transfer.
Profiling Data
GalataJ is a Java profiler that runs locally on your machine. All profiling data (method execution times, call stacks, performance metrics) is processed and stored locally on your machine.
We do not collect, transmit, or store any of your profiling data on our servers. Your application code and performance data remain entirely under your control.
The AI-ready export features generate prompts locally that you can optionally share with AI services of your choice. We have no access to this data.
Retention of Data
We will retain your personal data only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy policy. We will retain and use your personal data to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your data to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes, and enforce our legal agreements and policies.
Disclosure
The collected information may be disclosed only in the following cases:
- If we are required to do so by law
- If GalataJ is merged or sold to another company
