By using this website you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the site.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Tool Usage Data

All tool processing happens entirely inside your browser. Text, code, passwords, tokens, keys, and any other content you paste or type into any tool on this site is never transmitted to our servers. We have no servers that receive or store user-generated content.

2.2 Automatically Collected Data (Analytics)

When analytics are enabled, we may collect anonymised usage data including:

  • Operating system
  • Approximate geographic location (country / city — not precise)

This data is collected in aggregate and cannot be used to personally identify you. We do not collect your exact IP address for storage or tracking purposes.

2.3 Cookies

We may use the following types of cookies:

  • Essential cookies: A single theme key is stored in your browser's localStorage to remember your dark/light mode preference. This never leaves your device.
  • Analytics cookies: If Google Analytics is enabled, Google places cookies (_ga, _gid) to distinguish unique visitors. See Google's Privacy Policy for details.
  • Advertising cookies: If Google AdSense is enabled, Google and its partners may use cookies to serve personalised advertisements based on your browsing behaviour. See Section 5 for details.

3. How We Use Your Information

The anonymised analytics data we collect is used solely to:

  • Understand which tools are most useful to visitors
  • Improve site performance and user experience
  • Monitor overall traffic trends

We do not sell, trade, or rent any personal information to third parties. We do not use your data for profiling, automated decision-making, or any purpose other than improving this website.

4. Third-Party Analytics

Google Analytics

This site may use Google Analytics (Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheatre Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA). Google Analytics uses cookies to help analyse how visitors use the site. The information generated (including your IP address, which is anonymised before storage) is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States.

You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Umami (Privacy-First Analytics)

As an alternative, we may use Umami Analytics, which is GDPR-compliant, uses no cookies, and collects no personally identifiable information.

5. Advertising (Google AdSense)

This site may display advertisements served by Google AdSense (Google LLC). Google AdSense uses cookies and web beacons to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.

You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or by visiting www.aboutads.info.

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of the DoubleClick cookie enables it and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visit to our site and/or other sites on the Internet.

6. GDPR Rights (EEA Residents)

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have the following rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):

  • Right of access — request a copy of data we hold about you

  • Right to restrict processing — request limitation on how we use your data
  • Right to data portability — receive your data in a structured format
  • Right to object — object to processing based on legitimate interests

Since we collect no personally identifiable information directly, most GDPR requests should be directed to our third-party service providers (Google). To exercise any right, contact us at contact@shantanukumar.in.
