Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-11-09

Your files and data

All tools on ToolSmith run locally in your web browser. Files, text, PDFs, images, and microphone, camera or screen recordings you use with our tools are never uploaded to our servers or to any third party, and we have no access to them. Some tools (calculators, the spin-the-wheel list) remember your last inputs in your browser’s local storage for convenience; this data never leaves your device.

Third-party code libraries

Some tools load open-source libraries (for example PDF and HEIC decoders) from public content delivery networks such as cdnjs and jsDelivr. Like any website request, these providers can see your IP address and browser type. Your files are not sent to them.

Advertising

We show ads served by Google AdSense to keep the tools free. Google and its partners use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising in Google Ads Settings. Learn more about how Google uses information from sites that use its services. Visitors in the EEA, UK and Switzerland are asked for consent before personalized ads are shown.

Analytics

We may use privacy-friendly analytics to count page views and understand which tools are popular. This data is aggregated and never includes the content you process.

Pro purchases

Payments are processed by Lemon Squeezy, our merchant of record, under their own privacy policy. We receive your email address and order details to provide your license. When you activate a license, the key is sent to our server and to Lemon Squeezy to verify it, and it is stored in your browser's local storage so Pro stays unlocked.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR or CCPA) you may have the right to access, correct or delete personal data we hold about you. Contact us at hello@example.com and we will respond within 30 days.

Children

ToolSmith is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their personal data.

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows when it was last changed.
