Privacy Policy

Last updated: 12 March 2026 — Compliant with EU Regulation 2016/679 (GDPR)

Summary in plain words

  • ToolsDev.it tools process data only in your browser — nothing is ever sent to our servers
  • We collect anonymous navigation statistics via Google Analytics
  • We show ads via Google AdSense which uses cookies
  • We do not sell or share your data with third parties for marketing purposes

1. Data Controller

The data controller for personal data collected through toolsdev.it is the site operator.

For any privacy request, contact us via the Contact page.

2. Data Collected

2.1 Navigation data

The systems operating this site automatically collect certain technical data during normal use, including IP addresses, browser types, operating systems and device parameters. This data is not associated with identified users but could theoretically allow identification through third-party cross-referencing.

2.2 Voluntarily provided data

The site only collects personal data when voluntarily provided, for example through the contact form (name and email address). This data is used solely to respond to your request and is not retained beyond what is necessary.

2.3 Data entered in tools

ToolsDev.it tools do not transmit any user-entered data to our servers. All processing happens in your browser via client-side JavaScript. Data you enter (JSON, strings, text) stays exclusively on your device.

3. Google Analytics

This site uses Google Analytics to collect anonymous web traffic statistics (pages visited, session duration, geographic origin). Data is aggregated and anonymous — Google Analytics does not allow identification of individual users.

Google LLC acts as an external data processor. For more information: Google Privacy Policy.

You can disable Google Analytics tracking by installing the official opt-out browser add-on.

4. Google AdSense & Advertising

ToolsDev.it uses Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google AdSense uses cookies to show personalized ads based on your previous visits to this and other sites.

You can disable personalized advertising by visiting Google Ad Settings or YourOnlineChoices.

5. Cookies

5.1 Technical cookies (required)

Essential cookies required for the site to function. No consent needed.

5.2 Analytics cookies (anonymized)

Google Analytics cookies with anonymized IP for aggregate statistics. Require consent.

5.3 Advertising cookies

Google AdSense cookies for ad display. Require consent.

You can manage or delete cookies in your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect certain site features.

6. Data Sharing with Third Parties

ToolsDev.it does not sell, rent or share personal user data with third parties for marketing or profiling purposes.

Data may be shared exclusively with:

  • Google LLC for Analytics and AdSense (as described above)
  • Competent authorities when required by law

7. Your Rights (GDPR)

Under Articles 15–22 of the GDPR, you have the right to:

  • Access — obtain confirmation of whether your data exists and receive a copy
  • Rectification — request correction of inaccurate data
  • Erasure — request deletion of your data (“right to be forgotten”)
  • Restriction — request limitation of processing
  • Portability — receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format
  • Objection — object to processing on legitimate grounds

To exercise these rights, contact us via the Contact page. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority.

8. Data Retention

Navigation data is retained only for as long as strictly necessary for the purposes described. Data submitted via the contact form is retained for 12 months, after which it is permanently deleted.

9. Changes to this Policy

We reserve the right to modify this Privacy Policy at any time. Changes will be communicated by updating the date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
