Overview

payloadtwist is an open-source CSS theme editor for the Payload CMS admin panel. We respect your privacy and collect only the minimum data necessary to provide the service.

Data We Collect

  • Account information: When you register, we store your email address and a hashed password. We never store plaintext passwords.
  • Theme presets: Presets you save are stored in our database and associated with your account. Public presets are visible to other users.
  • Usage data: We may collect anonymous usage analytics (page views, feature usage) to improve the product. No personally identifiable information is included.

Data We Do Not Collect

  • We do not track you across other websites.
  • We do not sell or share your data with third parties.
  • We do not use your data for advertising purposes.
  • The theme editor runs entirely in your browser. Your CSS customizations are not sent to our servers unless you explicitly save a preset.

Cookies

Data Storage

Your data is stored in a PostgreSQL database. We take reasonable measures to protect your data, including encrypted connections and hashed passwords.

Your Rights

You can:

  • Delete your account and all associated data at any time.
  • Export your presets via the generated CSS output.
  • Request a copy of the data we hold about you.
