Privacy Details
All tool processing happens entirely in your browser. Files, images, text, and documents you use with our tools are never transmitted to our servers. Processing uses your own device's resources through Canvas, WebAssembly, JavaScript, and client-side libraries — the content you work with never leaves your computer. This applies to every tool on this site, including image converters, PDF utilities, and text tools.

This site is free because it is funded by advertising. To make that work, we use Ezoic as our advertising platform and Google AdSense as a demand partner. These partners, and the advertising technology vendors they work with, may collect and process data about your visit — including your IP address, device and browser characteristics, approximate location, and pages viewed — in order to select, deliver, measure, and prevent fraud in the ads you see.
The technologies used for this include cookies, local storage, tracking pixels, and browser fingerprinting — a method that combines your device and browser characteristics to recognise a browser across visits without relying on cookies. Vendors used for this purpose include FingerprintJS, ID5, and Optable. Ad delivery and verification services include Google Ad Manager, DoubleClick, and Google's ad traffic quality systems.
Each partner processes data under its own privacy policy, which we do not control. You can review the complete, current list of advertising vendors — and change your choices for each one — using the privacy settings link in the consent banner shown on this site.
Where required by law, we ask for your consent before advertising partners process your data for personalised advertising. In the EU and UK we use an IAB TCF-compliant consent platform (Gatekeeper Consent); in applicable US states we support Global Privacy Control and opt-out signals under the IAB GPP framework.
If you decline or withdraw consent, ads will still appear — they will be non-personalised, and generate less revenue, but the tools remain fully free and completely functional either way.
- Use every tool without registering or providing any personal information.
- Change or withdraw advertising consent at any time via the privacy settings link in the consent banner.
- Clear or block cookies through your browser settings, or use an ad blocker.
- Opt out of personalised Google ads at Google Ads Settings, or industry-wide at YourAdChoices.
- Under GDPR, CCPA, and similar laws you may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data — contact us and we will action it.
We do not sell personal information for money. Note that under some US privacy laws the sharing of data with advertising partners for personalised advertising can be classed as a "sale" or "sharing" — you can opt out of this using the privacy settings link in the consent banner. Any contact details you send us are used solely to reply to your message.
Our tools are not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided personal data, contact us and we will delete it.
