Privacy Policy
Effective Date: March 19, 2026
Welcome to UtilKit ("UtilKit", "we", "our", or "us"). This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and share information when you visit https://utilkit.tools (the "Site"). By using the Site, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
1. About UtilKit
UtilKit is a client-side web utility toolbox. All tool processing (encoding, decoding, hashing, formatting, generation, etc.) occurs entirely within your browser. We do not transmit your input data to any server. Your data never leaves your device when you use our tools.
2. Information We Collect
We do not directly collect any personally identifiable information. However, certain third-party services we use may collect information automatically when you visit the Site:
- Log Data: Like most websites, our hosting provider (Cloudflare Pages) may automatically collect standard log data such as your IP address, browser type, referring URLs, and pages visited.
- Analytics: We use Google Analytics (GA4) to collect anonymized usage metrics such as page views, session duration, and general geographic region. Google Analytics uses cookies to distinguish unique users. No personally identifiable information is sent to Google Analytics.
- Cookies: Cookies are placed by Google Analytics as described above. In the future, if we introduce advertising (e.g., Google AdSense), additional third-party cookies may be used to serve relevant ads. We will update this policy accordingly before that happens.
3. Advertising
UtilKit does not currently display advertisements. We may introduce advertising (such as Google AdSense) in the future to support the free operation of the Site. If and when advertising is added, this Privacy Policy will be updated to describe the specific advertising technologies and cookies used, along with instructions for opting out of personalized ads.
4. How We Use Information
The information collected by third-party services is used to:
- Analyze site traffic and usage patterns to improve the Site.
- Maintain the security and operation of the hosting infrastructure.
5. Cookies
Cookies are small data files stored on your browser. The Site currently uses:
- Analytics Cookies: Google Analytics sets cookies (e.g.,
_ga,_ga_*) to distinguish unique visitors and track session information. These cookies contain no personally identifiable information.
You can control and manage cookies through your browser settings. You may also opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
6. Data Sharing
We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal data to third parties. We may share anonymized, aggregated information with our advertising and analytics partners (such as Google) as described in this policy.
7. GDPR and EEA Users
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you have certain rights regarding your personal data under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including the right to access, correct, or delete personal data held by our third-party service providers.
Since UtilKit does not collect personal data directly, exercising these rights involves the third-party services we use. You can manage your Google Analytics data through Google's Privacy Dashboard, or opt out entirely using the Google Analytics Opt-out Add-on. For any other requests, please contact us at [email protected].
8. Children's Privacy
The Site is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe we have inadvertently collected information from a child, please contact us immediately.
9. Third-Party Links
The Site may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of those external sites and encourage you to review their privacy policies.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any significant changes by updating the "Effective Date" at the top of this page. Your continued use of the Site after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
