Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 18, 2026

Your Privacy Matters

At DevTools Hub, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data when you use our website at devtools-hub.com.

How Our Tools Work

All our tools process data entirely in your browser using JavaScript. This means:

  • Your data is never sent to our servers for processing
  • We do not store any text, code, JSON, passwords, or other data you enter into our tools
  • All processing happens locally on your device
  • Your sensitive information stays completely private
  • When you close the browser tab, your data is gone

This client-side approach ensures maximum privacy for your data.

Information We Collect

While we don't collect any data you enter into our tools, we may collect limited information to operate and improve our website:

Automatically Collected Information

  • Usage Data: Pages visited, time spent on pages, tools used (anonymized)
  • Device Information: Browser type, operating system, screen resolution, device type
  • Network Information: IP address (may be collected by third-party services)
  • Referral Data: How you found our website

Information We Do NOT Collect

  • Any data you enter into our tools (JSON, text, passwords, etc.)
  • Personal account information (we don't have accounts)
  • Payment information (our tools are free)
  • Names, emails, or other personal identifiers (unless you contact us)

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use minimal cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

  • Essential Cookies: To ensure basic website functionality
  • Preference Cookies: To remember your settings (like theme preference)

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality.

Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services that may collect data:

Cloudflare

Our website is served through Cloudflare, which may collect technical information for security and performance purposes. See Cloudflare's Privacy Policy.

QR Code API

Our QR Code Generator uses the QR Server API (api.qrserver.com) to generate QR codes. The text you enter is sent to this service to create the QR image. Do not enter sensitive information when generating QR codes.

How We Use Information

We use the collected information to:

  • Operate and maintain our website
  • Understand how visitors use our tools to improve them
  • Detect and prevent abuse or security issues
  • Comply with legal obligations

Data Retention

Since we don't store any data you enter into our tools, there's nothing to retain.

Data Security

We implement appropriate security measures to protect our website infrastructure. Since your tool data never leaves your browser, there's no risk of server-side data breaches affecting your processed information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.

Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal data:

  • Access: Request what personal data we hold about you
  • Correction: Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Deletion: Request deletion of your personal data
  • Portability: Request a copy of your data in a portable format
  • Opt-out: Opt out of personalized advertising and analytics tracking
  • Do Not Sell: We do not sell your personal information

Since our tools process data entirely in your browser and we don't collect personal data, most privacy requests are not applicable. You can opt out of analytics and advertising through the links provided above.

California Residents (CCPA)

If you are a California resident, you have additional rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA):

  • Right to know what personal information is collected
  • Right to know if personal information is sold or disclosed
  • Right to opt out of the sale of personal information
  • Right to non-discrimination for exercising CCPA rights

We do not sell your personal information.

European Residents (GDPR)

If you are in the European Economic Area (EEA), our legal basis for processing your information is:

  • Legitimate Interest: For analytics and website improvement
  • Consent: For non-essential cookies and personalized advertising

You have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

Children's Privacy

Our website is not intended for children under 13 (or 16 in the EEA). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

International Data Transfers

Our third-party service providers (Google, Cloudflare) may transfer data internationally. These providers maintain appropriate safeguards for data protection.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post the updated policy on this page with a new "Last updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
