Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to FreeTools ("we", "us", or "our"). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect information when you visit freeetools.com and use our free online tools (the "Service").

By using FreeTools, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the Service.

2. Information We Collect

Most FreeTools utilities process files directly in your web browser using client-side technology. In those cases, your files are not uploaded to our servers and we do not store the content of your documents or images.

We may automatically collect limited technical information when you visit our website, including:

• Browser type, device type, and operating system
• Pages visited, referring URL, and general usage patterns
• IP address (used in anonymized or aggregated form for analytics and security)
• Cookie and similar tracking data as described below

3. How We Use Information

We use collected information to operate and improve FreeTools, including:

• Monitoring site performance and fixing technical issues
• Understanding which tools are most popular so we can prioritize improvements
• Protecting against abuse, spam, and security threats
• Complying with legal obligations

4. Cookies & Analytics

We use cookies and similar technologies to remember preferences and measure website traffic. We may use third-party analytics services such as Google Analytics to understand how visitors interact with our site.

Analytics data is generally aggregated and does not identify you personally. You can control cookies through your browser settings and opt out of Google Analytics via Google's opt-out tools.

5. Third-Party Services

Our website may load resources from third-party providers (such as content delivery networks, font providers, or analytics platforms). These providers may collect information according to their own privacy policies.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes.

6. Data Retention

Because most file processing happens in your browser, we do not retain your uploaded files on our servers. Server logs and analytics data are retained only as long as necessary for security, troubleshooting, and statistical analysis, then deleted or anonymized.

7. Children's Privacy

FreeTools is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you, or to object to certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us using the details on our Contact page.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of FreeTools after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
