Privacy Policy

Welcome to DevZone Tools ("we", "our", or "us"). We operate the website at devzone.tools (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, and how we use and protect it. By using our Service you agree to the practices described here.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Information You Provide

Most tools on DevZone Tools run entirely in your browser. Text, files, or data you enter into a tool are processed locally and are never transmitted to our servers. We do not collect, store, or share the content you process with any tool.

If you contact us via email or a contact form, we collect your name, email address, and the content of your message solely to respond to your inquiry.

1.2 Automatically Collected Information

When you visit our site, our infrastructure and analytics providers may automatically collect:

• IP address (anonymized where possible)
• Browser type and version
• Operating system
• Referring URL
• Pages visited and time spent on each page
• Date and time of your visit

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Operate, maintain, and improve the Service
• Understand how visitors use our tools so we can prioritize new features
• Diagnose technical problems and ensure site security
• Respond to your support requests or inquiries
• Comply with applicable legal obligations

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party.

3. Cookies & Local Storage

We use localStorage to remember your theme preference (light or dark mode). No account or identifier is stored. We may also use strictly necessary session cookies required for the website to function properly.

If we introduce optional analytics cookies in the future, we will obtain your consent before setting them and provide a way to opt out.

4. Third-Party Services

We may use the following third-party services, each governed by their own privacy policies:

• Hosting & CDN — infrastructure providers that serve the site and may log request metadata.
• Analytics — privacy-friendly analytics to understand aggregate usage patterns (no cross-site tracking).
• Advertising — we may display ads. Ad networks may use cookies to serve relevant ads. You can opt out via your browser settings or industry opt-out tools such as aboutads.info.

5. Data Retention

Since we do not store the data you process with our tools, there is nothing to retain or delete on your behalf. Any contact-form data is retained only as long as necessary to resolve your inquiry and is then deleted.

6. Children's Privacy

The Service is not directed to children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will promptly delete it.

7. Security

We use industry-standard measures to protect information transmitted to and from our servers, including HTTPS encryption. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you. To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at the address below.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
