Privacy Policy

Last Updated: May 30, 2026

1. Overview

ToolsBase ("we", "our", or "us") operates the website toolsbase.net. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our website. Spoiler: we collect almost nothing, because almost nothing happens on our servers.

2. Data Collection

Nearly all tools on ToolsBase run locally within your web browser. We do NOT upload, store, share or collect any text, files or personal information you input into our tools. No user data is sent to our servers.

We may collect anonymous technical data automatically, including your IP address, browser type, device information and visited pages. This data is only used to analyze website traffic and improve our services.

3. Cookies

We use standard browser cookies to maintain website performance, remember basic preferences and deliver advertisements. Cookies are small text files stored on your device.

You can disable cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling cookies may affect website functions or ad display.

4. Google AdSense

This website uses Google AdSense to serve advertisements. Google may place cookies to deliver targeted ads based on your browsing activity. We do not control the content of third-party advertisements.

5. What We Don't Collect

Unlike most websites, ToolsBase does not use:

  • Analytics trackers (Google Analytics, Mixpanel, etc.)
  • Cookies or local storage for tracking purposes
  • Session recordings or heatmaps
  • Third-party tracking scripts
  • IP address logging
  • User accounts or login systems

Every tool on ToolsBase runs entirely in your web browser using JavaScript. When you format JSON, test a regex, or generate a password, your data never leaves your device. We literally cannot see it.

6. Information We May Collect

Very little, by design:

  • Server logs: Our hosting provider (Cloudflare) records standard access logs that include your IP address, browser agent, and requested URLs. These logs are used solely for infrastructure maintenance and security. We do not actively access or analyze these logs.
  • AdSense: Google AdSense may collect standard advertising data. See Google's Privacy Policy at policies.google.com/privacy. We do not share any user data with advertisers.
  • GitHub: If you contact us via GitHub, their privacy policy applies.

7. How We Use Information

Any information collected incidentally is used only for:

  • Keeping the site running and secure
  • Debugging infrastructure issues
  • Complying with legal obligations

We do not sell, share, or analyze user data for any purpose.

8. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

9. Children's Privacy

Our website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from children.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review it periodically.
