Privacy Policy

The short version

Whatever you type, paste or drop into a tool on this site is processed by your own browser and is never transmitted to us. We do not ask for an account, and we do not collect names, email addresses or payment details. The site does show advertising, and those advertising partners set their own cookies — that section is below, and it is the part most worth reading.

What never leaves your device

Every tool computes locally. JSON you format, tokens you decode, PDFs and images you open, spreadsheets you convert, salary and tax figures you enter — none of it is sent anywhere. There is no upload request carrying it, so we have nothing to store, log or disclose. You can confirm this in your browser's developer tools: open the Network tab and use any tool.

What the site does record

• Aggregate page views per tool. When a tool page opens, the server increments a counter for that tool. The record is the tool's name, the event and the date. It contains nothing about you and nothing you entered.
• Standard server logs. Our hosting provider records request metadata, including IP address and user agent, for security and reliability. These are kept only as long as the provider's retention window and are not used to profile visitors.

The two tools that need the network

• What Is My IP reads the public IP address of the request and returns it to you. A browser cannot determine its own public address, so this one has to ask the server. The address is read from the request and sent straight back — it is not written to a database.
• Internet Speed Test transfers meaningless random bytes to and from the server in order to time them. The payload carries no information about you and is discarded.

Storage in your browser

We use localStorage to remember interface preferences — the light or dark theme, and some tools' last-used settings. This stays on your device, is readable only by this site, and is never transmitted to us. Clearing your browser storage removes it.

Advertising and cookies

This site is funded by advertising, which is what keeps every tool free and unlimited. Advertising is served by third parties, including Google.

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and other sites on the internet.
• You can opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies for personalised advertising at aboutads.info or youronlinechoices.com.
• Where required by law, advertising partners obtain consent for the use of cookies and device identifiers before personalised ads are shown.

Advertising is entirely separate from the tools. An advertising partner never receives what you enter into a tool, because that data never leaves your browser in the first place.

Children

This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

Your rights

Because we do not collect personal information or operate accounts, there is normally no personal data of yours for us to access, correct or delete. If you believe we hold something about you, write to us at the address below and we will look into it.

Changes

If this policy changes, the revised version will be posted here with a new “last updated” date.
