Privacy-First Approach
At MultiTool Hub, we've designed our entire platform with privacy at its core.
All file processing happens directly in your browser using JavaScript. Your files
never leave your device, and we have no way to access them. This isn't just a
promise—it's how our technology works.
1. Information We Do NOT Collect
Let's start with what we don't collect, which is most important:
-
Your Files: We never upload, store, or have access to any files
you process using our tools. All processing happens locally in your browser.
-
Personal Information: We don't require registration, so we don't
collect names, email addresses, or any personal identification information (unless
you voluntarily contact us).
-
File Content or Metadata: We cannot see the content of your files,
filenames, file sizes, or any metadata associated with your documents.
-
User Accounts: We don't have user accounts, so there's no account
data, passwords, or user profiles stored on our servers.
2. Information We May Collect
To maintain and improve our website, we may collect minimal, non-personal information:
-
Anonymous Usage Statistics: We may use analytics services to
understand how visitors use our website (page views, time on site, navigation patterns).
This data is anonymized and cannot identify individual users.
-
Browser Information: Standard information your browser automatically
sends, such as browser type, operating system, and screen resolution. This helps us
ensure compatibility.
-
Cookies and Local Storage: We use localStorage to remember your
preferences (like dark mode settings). This data stays on your device and is never
sent to our servers.
3. How Our Tools Work
Understanding our technology explains why we can't access your files:
-
Client-Side Processing: When you upload a file, it's loaded into
your browser's memory using the File API. All manipulation happens using JavaScript
running on your device.
-
No Server Upload: Your files are never transmitted over the internet
to our servers or any third-party servers. They remain on your device throughout the
entire process.
-
Direct Download: When you download a processed file, it's created
in your browser and downloaded directly to your device without passing through our
servers.
-
No Cloud Storage: We don't use any cloud storage services for file
processing. Everything happens in your browser's temporary memory.
4. Cookies and Tracking
We use minimal tracking technologies:
-
Essential Cookies: We may use cookies or localStorage to remember
your preferences (theme selection, tool settings). These are stored locally on your
device.
-
Analytics: We may use privacy-respecting analytics services (like
Plausible or similar) that don't track individual users or use invasive cookies.
-
No Third-Party Advertising: We don't use advertising cookies or
share data with advertisers. We have no advertising on our site.
-
No Social Media Tracking: While we may link to social media platforms,
we don't embed tracking pixels or scripts from social media companies.
5. Third-Party Services
Our website uses minimal third-party services:
-
CDN Services: We load JavaScript libraries (PDF.js, PDF-Lib, etc.)
from Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) for faster loading. These services may log
requests but don't access your files.
-
Font Services: We may use font CDNs for typography. These services
may collect basic request information but have no access to your activities or files.
-
No Data Sharing: We don't share any data with third parties for
marketing, advertising, or analytics purposes.
6. Contact Information
If you contact us through our contact form or email:
-
We'll collect only the information you voluntarily provide (name, email, message content).
-
We'll use this information solely to respond to your inquiry.
-
We won't add you to mailing lists without your explicit consent.
-
We'll delete this information upon request or after a reasonable period.
7. Data Security
Since we don't collect or store your files, there's minimal data to secure. However:
-
Our website is served over HTTPS to ensure secure connections.
-
We follow security best practices for website maintenance and code security.
-
We regularly update our dependencies to patch any security vulnerabilities.
-
Your files remain in your browser's memory and are automatically cleared when you
close the tab or navigate away.
8. Your Rights
You have complete control over your data:
-
Right to Privacy: Since we don't collect your files or personal
data during tool usage, your privacy is inherently protected.
-
Right to Delete: You can clear any locally stored preferences
(like theme settings) by clearing your browser's localStorage.
-
Right to Opt-Out: You can use browser extensions to block analytics
if you prefer complete anonymity.
-
Right to Contact Us: If you have privacy concerns or questions,
please reach out through our contact page.
9. Children's Privacy
Our tools are suitable for all ages. Since we don't collect personal information,
there's no special concern regarding children's privacy. We don't knowingly collect
information from children under 13, and our client-side processing approach means
we have no way to differentiate between users of different ages.
10. International Users
Our website is accessible worldwide. Since all processing happens in your browser,
your data never crosses borders to reach our servers. This means:
- We're compliant with GDPR requirements by design (privacy by default).
- We don't engage in international data transfers of user files.
- Users from any country can use our tools with the same privacy protections.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices
or for legal reasons. The "Last Updated" date at the top of this page indicates when
the policy was last revised. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
