Privacy Policy

1. Tool processing stays in your browser

Core tool features (JSON formatting, JWT decoding, hashing, SQL beautifying, and similar utilities) are designed to run entirely in your browser. We do not intentionally upload the content you paste into tools to our servers for processing. That means your code snippets, tokens, and documents are not stored by us as part of normal tool use.

2. Information we may collect

• Usage data: pages visited, approximate location derived from IP, browser type, device type, and referral URLs — typically via analytics or hosting logs.
• Contact data: if you email thecodesplitters@gmail.com, we receive your email address and message content solely to respond.
• Advertising data: cookies and identifiers used by Google and other ad partners to deliver and measure ads.

3. Google AdSense and cookies

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements. Google and its partners may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. This helps show more relevant advertising.

• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
• You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
• You can also visit www.aboutads.info for resources about interest-based advertising and opt-out options.

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads. We do not control cookies set by advertising partners. Please review their policies for details.

4. How we use information

We use collected information to:

• Operate, maintain, and improve the website and tools
• Measure traffic and diagnose technical issues
• Display advertising (via AdSense and partners)
• Respond to support or partnership inquiries
• Comply with legal obligations

5. Data sharing

We do not sell personal information. We may share limited data with service providers who help host the site, analyze traffic, or serve ads — subject to their own privacy terms. We may also disclose information if required by law.

6. Children's privacy

This website is intended for a general audience of developers and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.

7. Your choices

You can clear cookies in your browser, use private browsing modes, or opt out of personalized ads via the links above. Because tool inputs are processed locally, clearing your browser storage removes any temporary client-side state.

8. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will change when revisions are posted. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated policy.
