My Web Utils: Free Online Dev Tools

1. Introduction

Welcome to My Web Utils ("we", "us", "our"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring you have a positive experience on our website. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website My Web Utils (the "Site"), including any other media form, media channel, mobile website, or mobile application related or connected thereto. Please read this privacy policy carefully. If you do not agree with the terms of this privacy policy, please do not access the site.

2. Information We Collect

My Web Utils is designed with privacy as a core principle. The vast majority of our tools operate entirely client-side, meaning the data you input into these tools (e.g., text for conversion, JSON for validation, images for editing) is processed locally within your browser and is NOT transmitted to, stored on, or logged by our servers.

The only exceptions where data might leave your browser are for tools that explicitly require interaction with external services, such as:

• HTTP Request Tester: Data you enter (URL, headers, body) is sent to the target URL you specify.
• IP Lookup Tool: Your IP address or the IP address you enter is sent to a third-party service (ipinfo.io) to fetch details.

We may use third-party services like Google AdSense for advertising. These services may collect anonymous data (e.g., non-identifying usage statistics, ad interaction data) using cookies or similar technologies for ad personalization and performance measurement. Please refer to Google's Privacy & Terms for more information on how Google uses data when you use our partners' sites or apps.

We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information (PII) such as your name, email address, or physical address through the use of our tools unless you voluntarily provide it (e.g., through a contact form, which is currently placeholder).

3. How We Use Information

Since we primarily do not collect personal information through our tools, we do not use it for tracking or profiling.

Any non-personal, aggregated information collected through analytics (if implemented in the future, and only with anonymized data) or through advertising partners would be used to:

• Improve the Site's functionality, performance, and user experience.
• Understand usage patterns to enhance our tool offerings.
• Support the free availability of our tools through advertising revenue.

4. Data Security

We strive to make My Web Utils secure. As most processing is client-side, your input data for the majority of tools remains within your control and on your computer. For tools that interact with external services (like the HTTP Request Tester or IP Lookup), the security of that data transmission depends on the security measures of the external service and the use of secure protocols (e.g., HTTPS). We encourage users to be mindful of the data they send to external services.

5. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We may use cookies, web beacons, tracking pixels, and other tracking technologies on the Site to help customize the Site and improve your experience. When you access the Site, your personal information is not collected through the use of tracking technology, unless through advertising partners as described. Most browsers are set to accept cookies by default. You can remove or reject cookies, but be aware that such action could affect the availability and functionality of the Site for some features.

6. Third-Party Websites

The Site may contain links to third-party websites and applications of interest, including advertisements and external services, that are not affiliated with us. Once you have used these links to leave the Site, any information you provide to these third parties is not covered by this Privacy Policy, and we cannot guarantee the safety and privacy of your information. We are not responsible for the content or privacy and security practices and policies of any third parties.

7. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Privacy Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
