Privacy Policy

• Your files, documents, images, audio and pasted text are processed entirely in your browser. They are never uploaded, because there is no server that could receive them.
• Three tools do make network requests. They are named below.
• No account, no sign-up, and no advertising or tracking cookies.
• Anonymous usage analytics run only if you accept them. Declining costs you nothing.

Every tool in the PDF, image, audio, video, CSV, spreadsheet, compression, archive and converter categories runs as JavaScript inside the page you are already looking at. The file you choose is read into your browser's memory, worked on there, and handed back to you as a download. It does not travel anywhere.

A practical consequence: once the page has loaded, these tools keep working with your network disconnected. That is the clearest proof of the claim — a tool that needed a server would stop.

These cannot work without a network request, so using them means data leaves your device. Every other tool on the site does not.

• DNS Lookup — the domain name you enter is sent to Google's public DNS-over-HTTPS resolver at dns.google to be resolved. Google receives the domain you looked up and your IP address.
• IP Address Lookup — calls ipapi.co and api.ipify.org to discover your public IP and its approximate location. Those services necessarily see your IP address. Looking up someone else's IP sends that address to them instead.
• HTTP Request Composer — sends a request to whatever URL you type, which is the entire point of the tool. Anything you put in the URL, headers or body goes to that destination. Nothing is routed through ToolOcean.

Three values are kept in your browser's localStorage. They stay on your machine and are readable only by this site. Clearing your browser storage removes all of them.

• toolOcean.history — a short local list of tools you have used, so recent work is easy to return to. Capped at the last 100 entries.
• toolOcean.analyticsConsent — whether you accepted or declined analytics, so you are not asked again.
• darkMode — your light or dark theme preference.

ToolOcean uses Google Analytics 4 to count visits and see which tools get used. It is configured conservatively:

• Storage consent defaults to denied. Until you press Accept, no analytics cookie or identifier is stored on your device.
• Advertising signals are denied permanently, including after you accept. There are no ads and no remarketing on this site, so that permission is never requested.
• What is recorded: the page visited, its title, and two interaction events — that a tool was used, and which control was pressed. That means a tool's name, such as json-formatter, and a button label, such as Beautify.
• What is never recorded: anything you type, paste or open. The content of your work is not part of any event, by design.

Google acts as the data processor for this analytics data and receives your IP address as part of any request to it. You can decline on the banner, or use any tracker blocker — the tools all work identically either way.

• Vercel hosts the site. Like any web host it processes the requests needed to serve pages, and its edge network logs standard request metadata including IP addresses.
• Google Fonts serves the two typefaces the site uses, loaded from Google's CDN. Because the request goes to Google's servers, your IP address is disclosed to Google when a page loads.

The site is a set of general-purpose utilities and is not directed at children. No personal information is knowingly collected from anyone, of any age.

If a tool is added that transmits data, this page is updated in the same change. The date above reflects the last revision. For more on how the site is built and why it works this way, see About.
