Your Privacy Matters to Us

At ToolKit, we are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how we handle your data. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your personal data.

Last Updated: October 15, 2023

We may update this policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page.

1. Information We Collect

ToolKit is designed with privacy as a core principle. We collect minimal information to provide and improve our services:

Usage Data

We collect anonymous usage statistics to understand how our tools are being used and to improve user experience. This includes information like which tools are most popular, browser types, and general geographic location (country-level).

Cookies & Local Storage

We use essential cookies to remember your preferences and localStorage to save your tool settings temporarily. We do not use tracking cookies or third-party analytics that collect personal information.

Contact Information

If you contact us via our contact form, we collect your name and email address solely to respond to your inquiry. We do not add you to any marketing lists without your explicit consent.

Important: Your Data Stays with You

For all our tools, your input data (text, images, files) is processed entirely in your browser. We do not send your data to our servers for processing. This means your sensitive information never leaves your device.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the limited information we collect for specific purposes:

  • To Provide Services: Operating and maintaining our tools and website
  • To Improve Our Services: Analyzing usage patterns to enhance tool functionality and user experience
  • To Communicate: Responding to your inquiries and providing support
  • To Ensure Security: Monitoring for abusive activities and protecting our services

We do not:

  • Sell your personal information to third parties
  • Use your data for targeted advertising
  • Share your contact information with marketing partners
  • Use your data for purposes unrelated to our services

3. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We value your privacy and do not share your personal information except in the following limited circumstances:

Situation What We Share Why We Share
Legal Requirements Only if legally compelled To comply with laws, regulations, or legal processes
Service Providers Minimal necessary data To trusted partners who help us operate our website (hosting, analytics)
Business Transfer User information In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets
Protection of Rights Relevant information To protect the rights, property, or safety of ToolKit, our users, or others

All third-party service providers are required to maintain the confidentiality and security of your information and are prohibited from using it for any other purpose.

4. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction:

Client-Side Processing

Most of our tools process your data entirely in your browser, meaning your sensitive information never reaches our servers.

Encryption

We use HTTPS encryption for all communication between your browser and our servers to protect data in transit.

Secure Servers

Our servers are maintained with security best practices and regular updates to protect against vulnerabilities.

While we implement these security measures, please note that no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security but we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information.

5. Your Rights and Choices

You have several rights regarding your personal information:

  • Access: You can request information about what personal data we have about you
  • Correction: You can request corrections to any inaccurate personal information
  • Deletion: You can request deletion of your personal information
  • Objection: You can object to certain processing of your personal information
  • Portability: You can request a copy of your personal information in a structured format
  • Withdraw Consent: You can withdraw consent where we rely on consent to process your information

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the information provided at the end of this policy.

Browser Controls

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies or delete existing ones. However, disabling cookies may affect the functionality of some tools.

6. Third-Party Services

By using our services, you understand and consent to the transfer of your information to the United States and the use and disclosure of your information as described in this Privacy Policy.

8. Children's Privacy
