Privacy Policy

Toolspire is built so the file stays with you. This policy says what never reaches us, what stays in this browser, and what an advertising or analytics partner may still collect.

Last updated

1. Files and text you use in our tools

Our tools process your files and text locally, inside your web browser. Images you compress, text you count and anything else you work with are not uploaded to Toolspire or to anyone else, and we have no way to see them. When you close the page, they are gone unless you saved a result to your device.

The same goes for your camera and microphone. The Mic Tester, Webcam Tester and the QR and barcode scanners use them only after your browser has asked you, and only while the page is open. Sound and video are analysed on your device and are never uploaded, recorded or stored by us; a recording or photo you make stays in the tab unless you download it.

If a tool needs to contact an outside service to work, its page says so clearly, including what is sent and to whom. The tools below do. They send only what is described here — never your files or anything else — and we don’t store the domains or addresses you check:

  • the SSL Checker sends the domain name to SSLMate Cert Spotter (certificate transparency logs) and Google Public DNS, and your browser requests that website’s home page;
  • the DNS Lookup sends the domain name, with the record type, to the public DNS server you choose;
  • the DNS Propagation Checker sends the domain name, with the record type, to these public DNS services: Google Public DNS, Cloudflare 1.1.1.1, DNS.SB, Control D, CleanBrowsing, IIJ Public DNS, dnsforge.de. Google Public DNS is also asked to answer as it would for users of several internet providers, identified by a network prefix belonging to each provider — never by your own IP address;
  • the Website SEO Checker asks your browser to load the page address you enter, and that site’s robots.txt and llms.txt, directly from the website. When the website doesn’t allow that, the address is sent to Jina Reader (r.jina.ai), which fetches them for you. The report can show the site’s icon and preview image, which your browser loads from that website. HTML you paste instead is analysed on your device and never sent;
  • the Dofollow Nofollow Link Checker fetches the page address you enter in the same way — from your browser where the site allows it, otherwise through Jina Reader. HTML you paste instead stays on your device;
  • the Markdown to Notion converter works on your device. Only if you press Send does your browser send the converted page, together with the Notion token you typed, straight to Notion (api.notion.com). The token is not stored;
  • the 3D Molecular Structure Viewer sends what you search for — a compound name, SMILES string or PubChem number — to PubChem (pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov), and a Protein Data Bank ID to the RCSB PDB (files.rcsb.org). Its built-in molecules and the structure files you open stay on your device;
  • the Online Teleprompter can follow your voice with your browser’s speech recognition. Where the browser recognises speech on your device, nothing is sent. Otherwise, and only after you allow it, your browser sends what the microphone hears to its maker’s speech service (Google for Chrome, Microsoft for Edge, Apple for Safari); Toolspire never receives it. Camera recordings are saved straight to your device;
  • the Sitemap Generator fetches the pages of the website you enter, and its robots.txt, in the same way — from your browser where the site allows it, otherwise through Jina Reader, which receives each page address. Pasted URL lists are processed on your device;
  • the Robots.txt Generator builds and tests files on your device; only if you load a website’s robots.txt is that file fetched, in the same way;
  • the Responsive Design Tester asks your browser to load the page address you enter, inside frames on the page, directly from that website — just as if you had opened it in a tab. The address is not sent to us;
  • the Internet Speed Test downloads and uploads test data to Cloudflare’s speed test service (speed.cloudflare.com). Like any server, it sees your IP address; the page shows you which Cloudflare data centre answered and the country Cloudflare places you in. The upload data is random bytes, and Toolspire never receives your results;
  • the URL Shortener sends the address you shorten — with any custom ending, password, click limit or expiry you set — to the service you choose, spoo.me or da.gd, which stores it so the short link works. Click statistics for spoo.me links are fetched from spoo.me, and Check a link sends the link you check to da.gd, which follows its redirects for you. The list of links you make is kept only in your browser.

DNS queries travel encrypted over DNS-over-HTTPS, directly from your browser to these services.

The Password Strength Checker works entirely on your device. Only if you click Check now does it contact Have I Been Pwned, sending the first five characters of the password’s SHA-1 hash — never the password or its full hash. The comparison happens in your browser.

2. Information stored on your device

Some features remember preferences in your browser’s local storage. This data stays on your device and is never sent to us:

  • your light or dark theme choice;
  • a short list of tools you used recently, shown in search;
  • drafts in tools that offer autosave (such as the Word Counter), which you can switch off at any time;
  • your last 20 internet speed test results, which you can clear on the speed test page;
  • the short links you make with the URL Shortener, which you can remove or clear on that page;
  • the resume you write in the Resume Builder, so you can continue later (Start blank clears it), and the details and photo in your Marriage Biodata (Start over clears them);
  • your Tic Tac Toe, Connect Four, Reversi and Checkers settings and scores, your Snake settings and records, your Solitaire, Spider Solitaire, FreeCell, Mahjong Solitaire, Word Guess, Chess and Block Puzzle games, settings and stats, your Dinosaur Game high score, your Bubble Pop game and records, your Ludo game and record, your Hangman settings and record, your Snakes and Ladders game and record, your Word Search puzzle, settings and record, your Jigsaw Puzzle progress, settings and record (and your own photo if you add one, which stays in this browser and is never uploaded), your Memory Game settings and record, which you can reset in each game, your bingo cards and the game in progress, your coin flip settings and statistics, your Sudoku game, settings and best times, and your 2048 and Minesweeper games, settings and best scores and times;
  • the notes you write in the Online Notepad, in your browser’s IndexedDB storage, with links to any files you save them to, until you delete them (deleted notes stay in its trash for 30 days). A note you share by link travels inside the link, after the # sign, which browsers do not send to our server;
  • your script and settings in the Online Teleprompter, and your size and paper settings in the Poster Printer;
  • your Scientific Calculator history, memory value and settings, which Clear in the history removes;
  • the birth details you enter in the Kundli Maker, so the form is filled in when you return (Clear removes them);
  • the courses, semesters and conversion formula you enter in the GPA & CGPA Calculator, so they are there next semester (Clear removes them);
  • your classes, subjects, timetable and holidays in the Attendance Calculator, so they are there the next time you check;
  • the figures you enter in the Income Tax, Home Loan EMI, Car Loan EMI, Mortgage, Auto Loan and Student Loan calculators, so they are filled in when you return;
  • the students, rooms and settings of your plan in the Exam Seating Arrangement Planner, so you can return to it (Clear all removes them);
  • the last address and screen sizes you used in the Responsive Design Tester;
  • the options, domain and redirect list you enter in the .htaccess Generator (a password typed for an .htpasswd line is never saved);
  • your settings in the CSS Box Shadow, CSS Glassmorphism, CSS Neumorphism and Scroll Animation generators, and your layout in the Bento Grid Generator and the CSS Flexbox & Grid Playground (a photo you add to the glassmorphism preview is never saved; a Playground share link carries the layout inside the link itself);
  • your last inputs in the Half-Life Calculator, your settings in the Radioactive Decay Simulator, your display choices in the 3D Molecular Structure Viewer, the paper settings in the Graph Paper Generator, and your display settings and quiz best scores in the Interactive Periodic Table;
  • your typing test settings, recent results and personal bests, the SVG Optimizer options you choose, your Screen Ruler calibration, your last pattern and text in the Regex Tester, the encoding and output format in the Hex to ASCII and Binary to Text converters, and the algorithm and webhook provider you last used in the HMAC Generator (never keys or secrets);
  • your business details, saved customers and last invoice in the GST Invoice Generator and the Luxembourg Invoice Generator, the company, employee and payslip details in the Salary Slip Generator, and the card design with the one card you are editing (including its photo) in the ID Card Maker, so you can continue later — lists and photos imported into the ID Card Maker for many cards are kept only while the page is open;
  • the emoji you used recently and your skin tone in the Emoji & Kaomoji Picker, your last units in the Unit Converter, and your state, units and any unit sizes you correct in the Land Area Converter;
  • whether you closed the small ad bar on mobile, for the current visit only.

You can clear all of it at any time by clearing this site’s data in your browser settings.

3. Advertising

Toolspire is free because it shows ads. Ads are provided by third-party networks, including Adsterra. To choose and measure ads, these partners and the advertisers they work with may use cookies or similar technologies and may receive information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, approximate location and the page you are viewing. Their use of this information is governed by their own privacy policies.

Every ad on Toolspire loads in its own separate frame that is not allowed to redirect your page or open pop-up dialogs. We never send the files or text you use in our tools to advertisers.

4. Server logs

Like every website, our hosting and content-delivery providers automatically process technical request data — IP address, browser type, the page requested and the time — to deliver pages and protect the site from abuse. We do not use this data to identify you, and we do not combine it with other information.

5. Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand how the site is used in aggregate — for example, which tools are popular, how visitors find us and which devices they use — so we can decide what to improve and build next.

Google Analytics sets first-party cookies (such as _ga) and receives information such as the pages you visit, the site that referred you, your browser and device type, and your approximate location. Google Analytics 4 does not log or store IP addresses. It never receives the files or text you use in our tools. Google processes this data under the Google Privacy Policy.

You can opt out at any time with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, or by blocking cookies for this site in your browser settings.

6. Children

Toolspire is a general-audience website and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

7. Your rights

Because we do not hold accounts or store the content you process, we generally hold no personal data about you. Depending on where you live (for example, under the GDPR in the EU/UK, India’s DPDP Act or California’s CCPA), you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal data and to object to its use for advertising. For data collected by an advertising partner, please use that partner’s privacy controls; for anything else, contact us and we will help.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as the site grows. The date at the top of this page shows when it last changed. Significant changes will be highlighted on this page.
