Privacy Policy

Your Data, Your Control

At Toolsuz, privacy isn't just a feature - it's our foundation. All tools run locally in your browser, ensuring your data never leaves your device.

Last updated: December 17, 2024

Key Privacy Points

100% Local Processing

All tools run entirely in your browser. No data is sent to our servers.

No Data Storage

We don't store, collect, or have access to any files or data you process.

No Tracking

We use minimal analytics only to improve our service, never to track your activity.

Secure by Design

Our architecture ensures your data stays private by default.

1. Information We DON'T Collect

Unlike traditional online tools, Toolsuz operates differently:

  • Your Files: Any files you upload or process (images, PDFs, documents) are handled entirely in your browser. We have no access to them.

  • Your Data: Text, code, or any content you input into our tools stays on your device. It's never transmitted to our servers.

  • Personal Information: We don't require registration, so we don't collect names, email addresses, or any personal identifiers.

  • Processing History: We don't track or store what tools you use or what you process with them.

    • 2. Information We DO Collect

    We collect minimal information solely to maintain and improve our service:

  • Anonymous Usage Statistics: We use privacy-focused analytics to understand which tools are popular and how to improve them. This includes:

    • - Page views (which tools are visited)

    - General geographic region (country level)

    - Device type (mobile/desktop)

    - Browser type

  • Error Reports: If our application encounters an error, we may collect anonymous error logs that help us fix issues. These never contain your personal data or file contents.

  • Voluntary Feedback: If you choose to contact us, we'll only use your information to respond to your inquiry.

    • 3. How Our Tools Work

    Understanding our architecture helps explain our privacy commitment:

  • Client-Side Processing: All tool operations (encoding, conversion, compression, etc.) happen in your browser using JavaScript.

  • No Server Processing: Our servers only deliver the website code to your browser. They don't process your data.

  • No Cloud Storage: We don't use cloud storage for your files. Everything is temporary and exists only in your browser's memory.

  • Automatic Cleanup: When you close the tab or navigate away, all your data is automatically cleared from memory.

    • 4. Third-Party Services

    We use minimal third-party services:

  • Content Delivery Network (CDN): To deliver our website faster globally. CDNs only serve static files and don't process your data.

  • Analytics: We use privacy-focused analytics (not Google Analytics) that don't track individuals or use cookies for tracking.

  • Hosting: Our website is hosted on secure servers that only serve the application code, not process your data.

    • None of these services have access to the data you process with our tools.

    5. Cookies and Local Storage

  • Essential Cookies: We use minimal cookies only for:

    • - Remembering your language preference

    - Remembering your theme preference (dark/light mode)

  • No Tracking Cookies: We don't use cookies for tracking, advertising, or profiling.

  • Local Storage: Some tools may temporarily use your browser's local storage for functionality. This data never leaves your device and is cleared when you close the tool.

  • Your Control: You can clear all cookies and local storage at any time through your browser settings.

    • 6. Data Security

    Security measures we implement:

  • HTTPS Everywhere: All connections to Toolsuz use encrypted HTTPS protocol.

  • No Data Transmission: Since your data never leaves your browser, it can't be intercepted during transmission.

  • Open Source Philosophy: Our commitment to transparency means our methods are verifiable.

  • Regular Security Updates: We keep our dependencies and libraries updated to patch any security vulnerabilities.

  • No Authentication Risks: Since we don't have user accounts, there's no risk of password breaches or account compromises.

    • 7. Your Rights

    You have complete control over your data:

  • Access: All processing happens on your device, so you always have full access to your data.

  • Deletion: Simply closing your browser tab deletes all data from our tools.

  • Portability: Your processed files are downloaded directly to your device.

  • Correction: Since we don't store your data, there's nothing to correct on our end.

  • Objection: You can choose not to use our services at any time.

  • Restriction: You control what data you process with our tools.

    • 8. Children's Privacy

  • Toolsuz is suitable for users of all ages as we don't collect personal information.

  • We don't knowingly collect information from children under 13.

  • Since our tools don't require registration, we have no way to determine users' ages.

  • Parents and guardians can feel secure knowing their children's data remains private when using our tools.

    • 9. International Users

  • Toolsuz is accessible globally and operates the same way regardless of your location.

  • Since data processing happens in your browser, your data never crosses international borders.

  • We comply with privacy laws globally by design - by not collecting personal data.

  • Users from the EU, California, and other privacy-conscious regions can be assured their data stays local.

    • 10. Changes to This Policy

  • We may update this privacy policy to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons.

  • Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.

  • Significant changes will be highlighted at the top of this page.

  • Your continued use of Toolsuz after changes means you accept the updated policy.

  • We encourage you to review this policy periodically.

  • Never sell, rent, or share your data (we can't - we don't have it)
  • Maintain our local-processing architecture
  • Be transparent about any changes to our privacy practices
