Data Notice

Summary

DevTools Box is a set of static, browser-based tools. Tool input is processed by JavaScript running in the page.

Local Processing

Formatting, decoding, encoding, hashing, comparing, counting, and timestamp conversion happen in the browser. This static version does not include an upload endpoint or server-side tool processing.

Smart Paste checks the text you enter in the browser and suggests matching tools. Send To uses browser session storage to pass a value from one tool page to another.

Browser Storage

Session storage is used for short-lived tool handoff, such as sending decoded Base64 text to the JSON formatter. The value is removed after the receiving tool loads it.

If features such as favorites, recent tools, or settings are added later, this notice should document how local storage is used before release.

Browser APIs

Some tools use standard browser APIs: Clipboard for copy and paste, Web Crypto for SHA hashes, and session storage for tool handoff.

Accounts, Cookies, and Analytics

This static version does not include accounts, login flows, ads, upload endpoints, or external font services.

DevTools Box uses Google Analytics 4 to understand aggregate site usage, such as page views, referrers, browser type, device category, and approximate region. Google Analytics may set cookies or similar identifiers for measurement. Tool input and generated output are not sent to Google Analytics by the site.

The site may also use Cloudflare Web Analytics or Cloudflare request logs for basic traffic, performance, abuse prevention, and availability measurement. These services can receive request metadata such as URL, user agent, referrer, approximate region, and timing information.

Analytics is used to understand which tools are useful and where pages need improvement. It is not used by DevTools Box for account profiling, advertising personalization, or selling user data.

Feedback Emails

If you email [email protected], your message and email address are used only to reply and to improve DevTools Box. Tool inputs and outputs still stay in your browser.

Data Retention

There are no accounts, databases, or server-side storage in this static version. The text you enter stays in the current page unless you copy it, clear it, close the tab, or use Send To for a one-time handoff.

Future Changes

If uploads, ads, sharing links, backend APIs, or additional third-party scripts are added later, this notice should be updated before deployment.
