Privacy
Policy

ToolHub (toolhub.online) is a collection of free online tools. This Privacy Policy describes how we handle information — or more accurately, how we don't.

We've intentionally built ToolHub to be privacy-preserving by design. The tools are engineered to work entirely in your browser. This isn't just a promise — it's how the code works. You can open DevTools in any browser and verify that your data isn't being sent anywhere.

By using ToolHub, you agree to this policy. If you have any questions, contact us.

Tool Inputs

When you use a tool — pasting a JWT token, uploading an image, entering text — that input is processed entirely within your browser using JavaScript. It is never sent to any server, never stored in a database, and never logged in any system we operate.

You can verify this yourself: open your browser's Network tab in DevTools while using any tool and you will see zero outgoing requests to our server carrying your data.

Server Logs

Like all web servers, our hosting provider automatically logs basic HTTP request metadata — the page URL requested, timestamp, and HTTP status code. This is standard server infrastructure behaviour. These logs:

• Do not contain your tool inputs or any content you enter
• Are not analysed, sold, or shared with any third party
• Are automatically purged by the hosting provider per their retention policy
• Cannot be used to identify you personally

Basic Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand basic website traffic (such as page views and visitor counts). We do not use this data for advertising profiling. We do not run Mixpanel, Hotjar, Clarity, or any other advanced analytics platform. We have no heatmaps and no session recordings monitoring your activity on this site.

Some features of ToolHub use your browser's localStorage to save preferences locally on your device only. This data never leaves your browser and we cannot access it.

What We Store Locally

• Theme preference — dark or light mode setting (th_t)
• Recently used tools — last 5 tools you opened (th_rc)
• Saved tools — tools you star/bookmark (th_sv)
• Bookmark prompt dismissed — so we don't show the banner twice (th_bm)

What We Do NOT Store

• Any content you paste into tools (tokens, code, text, URLs)
• Any identifying information about you
• Any session or authentication data

Cookies

ToolHub sets zero cookies — no session cookies, no persistent cookies, no advertising cookies. None. If your browser reports a cookie from this site, it is set by your browser itself or a browser extension, not by us.

Google Fonts

ToolHub loads fonts (Fragment Mono, Barlow Condensed) from Google Fonts. When your browser requests these fonts, Google's servers receive your IP address as part of a standard HTTP request. This is the only third-party service we use.

Google's use of this data is governed by Google's Privacy Policy. If you'd prefer to block this, you can use a browser extension like uBlock Origin or enable DNS-level blocking.

What We Do NOT Use

• Facebook / Meta Pixel or any social tracking
• Amazon, Cloudflare, or CDN services that profile users
• Advertising networks of any kind
• Affiliate tracking scripts
• Session recording tools (Hotjar, FullStory, etc.)
• Error tracking services (Sentry, etc.)

Buy Me a Coffee

We link to buymeacoffee.com as an optional way to support ToolHub. Clicking this link takes you to a separate website governed by their own privacy policy. We receive no data from your interactions there.

Hosting

This site is hosted on shared web hosting. The hosting provider processes standard HTTP requests and may maintain server access logs as described in Section 2. We do not share any user data with our hosting provider beyond what is required to serve the website.

Because we collect no personal data, most data protection rights are automatically satisfied — there is simply nothing to access, correct, or delete. However, we want to be explicit:

Right to Access

We hold no personal data about you to provide. There is nothing to access.

Right to Deletion

We hold no personal data to delete. If you want to remove locally-stored preferences (theme, recently used tools), clear your browser's localStorage for this site.

GDPR & International Users

If you are located in the European Union, UK, or California, you have specific rights under GDPR, UK GDPR, and CCPA respectively. Since we collect no personal data, we believe we fall outside the scope of these regulations as a data controller. However, if you have concerns, please contact us.

Children's Privacy

ToolHub is intended for general audiences including professional developers and students. We do not knowingly collect any information from children under 13. Since we collect no data from anyone, this is automatically satisfied.

Changes to This Policy

If we ever change this privacy policy in a meaningful way — for example, if we add analytics or change our data practices — we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page and make the change clearly visible.

We will never quietly change this policy to collect more data. Any change that increases data collection will be announced prominently on the site before it takes effect.
