Privacy Policy

Effective date: 4 March 2026

1. Introduction

DevUtilityLab ("we", "us", or "our") operates a collection of browser-based utilities designed for software developers. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information in connection with your use of our website and tools.

We take a minimalist approach to data: the utilities themselves are built to run entirely in your browser, and we do not store the content you paste into them.

2. Data You Provide in Tools

When you use tools such as the JSON formatter, Base64 encoder, JWT decoder, SQL formatter, or regex tester, the data you input is processed locally in your browser using client-side JavaScript.

Even though we design with privacy in mind, you should avoid using any online tool with highly sensitive, confidential, or regulated information.

3. Cookies and Local Storage

DevUtilityLab may use cookies or local storage to support core functionality, such as remembering your preferred theme (dark or light mode). These values are stored on your device and are not used to track your behavior across other websites.

You can clear cookies and local storage at any time via your browser settings, which may reset certain preferences on the site.

4. Analytics

To understand how the site is used at a high level, we may implement privacy-conscious analytics in the future. These analytics would focus on aggregate metrics such as page views, tool popularity, and generic usage patterns.

If analytics are enabled, we will avoid collecting content from your tool inputs and will not attempt to personally identify individual users. Any analytics provider we use will be expected to comply with relevant data protection regulations.

5. Third-Party Services and Ads

DevUtilityLab may integrate third-party services in the future, including advertising networks such as Google AdSense or similar platforms. These services may use cookies or similar technologies to provide and measure ads.

If and when third-party ads are enabled, we will update this Privacy Policy to describe the type of data they collect and how you can manage your preferences, including opting out where possible.

6. External Links

Our website may contain links to external websites or resources maintained by third parties. We do not control the content or privacy practices of those sites and are not responsible for their policies. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any third-party site you visit.

7. Children’s Privacy

DevUtilityLab is intended for use by developers and technical professionals. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so that we can take appropriate action.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable laws. When we make material updates, we will revise the "Effective date" at the top of this page.
