Privacy Policy
Your privacy is our priority - we don't collect or store your data
Our Privacy Philosophy
At Toolify, we believe privacy is a fundamental human right. Our platform is designed with privacy-first principles, ensuring that your data never leaves your device unless you explicitly choose to share it. We don't have user accounts, we don't store your files, and we don't track your activities.
What We Don't Collect
Unlike many web applications, Toolify operates entirely in your browser. We do not collect:
- Personal information (names, emails, addresses)
- User accounts or login credentials
- Files you upload or process through our tools
- Tool usage history or preferences
- IP addresses or device identifiers
- Any data that could identify you personally
Anonymous Analytics
We use anonymous analytics to understand how our tools are used and improve the user experience. This data is completely anonymous and includes:
- Which tools are most popular (no individual usage data)
- General website performance metrics
- Browser and device type (for compatibility improvements)
- Geographic region (country level only, no specific location)
This analytics data is processed by third-party services (like Google Analytics) and cannot be used to identify individual users.
Local Storage
Toolify uses your browser's local storage to enhance your experience. This data stays on your device and includes:
- Your favorite tools (for quick access)
- Display preferences (dark/light mode, view modes)
- Tool settings and configurations
- Recent tool usage (for your convenience)
You can clear this data at any time through your browser settings, and it will never be transmitted to our servers.
File Processing
When you use our file processing tools (image compression, PDF manipulation, etc.), all processing happens entirely in your browser. Your files are never uploaded to our servers or stored anywhere. The processed results are generated locally and can be downloaded directly to your device.
Third-Party Services
We use a limited number of third-party services for essential functionality:
- Analytics providers: For anonymous usage statistics
- CDN services: For fast content delivery
- Hosting platforms: For website availability
These services have their own privacy policies, but they cannot access your personal data or the files you process through our tools.
Your Rights and Control
Since we don't collect personal data, you have complete control over your information:
- Clear local storage data anytime through browser settings
- Disable analytics tracking through browser privacy settings
- Use our tools without any data collection
- Process files completely offline (when possible)
Data Security
Since we don't store your data on our servers, the security of your information depends entirely on your device and browser. We implement best practices for client-side security, including HTTPS encryption for all communications and secure coding practices to protect against client-side vulnerabilities.
Children's Privacy
Toolify is designed for professional use and does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. Since we don't collect personal data from anyone, this policy applies to all users regardless of age.
International Users
Toolify is accessible worldwide, but since we don't collect or process personal data, international data transfer regulations don't apply to our service. Your data remains on your local device regardless of your location.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices or for legal compliance. Since we don't collect personal data, we won't need to notify you of changes, but we will update the "Last updated" date on this page. Continued use of Toolify after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
Contact Information
If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or our privacy practices, you can contact us through our GitHub repository. We're committed to transparency and will respond to all legitimate privacy-related inquiries.
