Privacy at DishwasherFixes

How the site operates

Website and server logs

Like most websites, our servers (hosted on Cloudflare infrastructure) automatically record standard log information, including IP addresses, browser types, and access times, to ensure site security and performance.

Local storage and session state

We use your browser's local storage to remember your theme preference (light or dark mode) and maintain your progress during a diagnostic session. This data remains on your device.

Model verification

If you use our model lookup tool, the model number you enter is transmitted to our servers solely for the purpose of checking it against our appliance database.

Confirmed fixes

To improve our diagnostic accuracy, we collect anonymous, aggregated data when a user confirms a successful fix. DishwasherFixes stores limited diagnostic outcome information (such as the symptom and the recommendation that solved the problem) to improve the service for others. We intentionally do not collect model numbers, names, or email addresses in these confirmed-fix records.
