Privacy Policy
Overview
devtoolsforyou is a collection of browser-based developer utilities. All tools process your input locally inside your browser. No data you paste or type is sent to any server, logged, or stored anywhere outside your device.
Data we do not collect
- Input you paste or type into any tool
- Output produced by any tool
- Your IP address or device fingerprint
- Account information (there are no accounts)
- Cookies or local storage for tracking purposes
How the tools work
Every transformation — encoding, decoding, formatting, hashing, converting, comparing, and generating — runs entirely inside your web browser using standard browser APIs and JavaScript. When you paste a value and interact with a tool, your input is processed locally and the result is shown on the same page. Nothing you enter leaves your device.
Analytics
DevToolsForYou uses Google Analytics (GA4) to collect anonymised usage data — specifically which pages are visited and how often. This helps understand which tools are most useful. Google Analytics does not receive any input or output from the tools themselves. You can opt out using the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
Hosting and infrastructure
DevToolsForYou is served from an AWS EC2 instance. Web server access logs (standard HTTP request logs) may be kept for operational purposes such as diagnosing errors. These logs record the URL path requested and basic request metadata — they do not contain any input or output from the tools themselves.
Other third-party services
Beyond Google Analytics, DevToolsForYou does not integrate any advertising networks, tracking pixels, or social media scripts.
Cookies
devtoolsforyou does not set any cookies. No tracking cookies, session cookies, or preference cookies are used.
Children's privacy
devtoolsforyou does not knowingly collect any information from children under 13. The tools are intended for use by developers and technically minded adults.

If this policy changes materially, the updated date at the top of this page will be revised. Continued use of the site after any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
