Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 1, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how ToolzPedia ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you use our website at toolzpedia.com (the "Service"). By using the Service you agree to this policy.
1. The Short Version
- Files you process stay on your device. All our PDF, image, AI, and SEO tools run inside your browser using JavaScript. We never receive a copy of your files.
- We use minimal cookies to make the site work and to show ads via Google AdSense.
- We use Google Analytics to count visits and improve content. No personally identifying data.
- We never sell your data. Ever.
2. Information We Collect
2.1 Information you give us
When you use our contact form we collect your name, email address, and the contents of your message. We use this only to reply to you.
2.2 Information collected automatically
When you visit ToolzPedia, our servers and analytics partners may automatically collect:
- Your IP address (anonymised after collection)
- Browser type, version, and operating system
- Referring page and pages viewed
- Approximate location (country / region) derived from IP
- Time and date of visits and time spent on pages
2.3 Files you upload to tools
We do not collect, store, or transmit the files you process with our tools. Tools run entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript (Canvas API, pdf-lib, etc.). Your files never leave your device.
3. Cookies & Tracking
We use the following cookies and similar technologies:
- Essential cookies — required for site features (theme preference, session for rate limiting). These cannot be disabled.
- Analytics cookies — Google Analytics 4 to understand site usage. IP anonymisation enabled.
- Advertising cookies — Google AdSense and partners may set cookies to show personalised ads. See section 5.
You can disable cookies in your browser settings. Some features may stop working if you do.
4. How We Use Information
- To operate, maintain, and improve the Service
- To respond to your inquiries via the contact form
- To analyse traffic and usage patterns in aggregate
- To detect and prevent abuse, fraud, and security threats
- To comply with legal obligations
5. Third-Party Services
5.1 Google AdSense
We display ads through Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies and device identifiers to serve ads based on your prior visits to ToolzPedia and other sites. You can opt out of personalised advertising at Google Ads Settings or aboutads.info.
5.2 Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 with IP anonymisation. Read Google's Privacy Policy. Opt out using the GA Opt-out browser add-on.
5.3 Content Delivery Networks (CDNs)
We load some libraries (e.g. pdf-lib) from public CDNs like jsDelivr. CDNs may log basic request data per their own policies.
6. GDPR / EEA Users
If you are in the European Economic Area, UK, or Switzerland, you have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict processing of your personal data, and the right to data portability and to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority. Contact us at info@toolzpedia.com to exercise these rights.
7. CCPA (California Residents)
California residents have the right to know what personal information is collected, the right to delete it, and the right to opt out of the sale of personal information. ToolzPedia does not sell personal information.
8. Children's Privacy
ToolzPedia is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
9. Data Security
We use industry-standard security measures (HTTPS, secure hosting, limited access). However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top reflects the most recent version. Continued use of the Service after changes means you accept the new policy.
