Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 1, 2025

At Utilz.io, we believe that privacy is a fundamental right. We have designed our tools to process data locally in your browser whenever possible, minimizing the amount of information that is sent to our servers.

1. Client-Side Processing

The vast majority of tools on Utilz.io (including text formatters, image converters, and calculators) run entirely within your web browser using JavaScript and WebAssembly. Your input data (such as the text you paste or the images you select) is processed on your device and is never transmitted to our servers.

2. Server-Side Processing

Some tools require external connectivity to function (e.g., DNS lookups, URL unshorteners, or WHOIS queries). For these tools, we act as a transient proxy. We forward your query to the relevant upstream provider and return the result to you. We do not log or store the content of these queries beyond the duration of the request.

3. Analytics & Advertising

We use Google Analytics to understand aggregate usage patterns (e.g., which tools are most popular). We also display non-intrusive advertisements to support the hosting costs of this free service.

You can manage your consent preferences for cookies and tracking technologies via the consent banner displayed at the bottom of the page.

4. Data Retention

We do not create user accounts, and we do not store personal data. Since most processing happens on your device, there is no data for us to retain.

5. Contact Us
