SafeToolsHub

Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 2026

1. Introduction

At SafeToolsHub, your privacy is our top priority. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our website and tools at safetoolshub.com. We are committed to being transparent about our practices and protecting your rights.

The short version: We collect virtually no personal data. Our tools process your files in your browser, and we do not have access to the content you process.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Information We Do NOT Collect

  • We do not collect your files, images, passwords, PDFs, or any content you process with our tools.
  • We do not require account registration or login.
  • We do not collect your name, email address, or other personal identifiers (unless you voluntarily contact us via our contact page).
  • We do not track your tool usage or the content you create.

2.2 Information Automatically Collected

Like most websites, we may automatically collect limited technical information:

  • Usage analytics — Page views, referral sources, and general geographic region (via Google Analytics). This data is aggregated and anonymized.
  • Cookies — Essential cookies for site functionality and third-party cookies from Google Analytics and Google AdSense (see Section 4 for details).

3. How Our Tools Work

Our tools are designed with a privacy-first architecture. All 47 of our tools process data entirely client-side, meaning:

  • Your files are processed in your web browser using JavaScript.
  • No files are uploaded to our servers.
  • We have no access to the content you process.
  • Once you close the browser tab, all processed data is gone.

This includes all tools across our five categories: Text Tools, Developer Tools, Image Tools, Security & Privacy Tools, and Math & Calculators. Technologies used include the Web Crypto API (for password generation and encryption), Canvas API (for image processing), and pdf-lib (for PDF operations).

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use the following types of cookies on SafeToolsHub:

4.1 Essential Cookies

Required for basic site functionality, such as remembering your cookie consent preference. These cookies do not collect personal information and cannot be disabled.

4.2 Analytics Cookies (Google Analytics)

We use Google Analytics (measurement ID: G-WTDQQ075FH) to understand how visitors use our site. Google Analytics collects anonymized data about page views, traffic sources, and user interactions. No personally identifiable information is shared with Google Analytics.

You can opt out of Google Analytics by:

4.3 Advertising Cookies (Google AdSense)

We use Google AdSense (publisher ID: ca-pub-0795628142426005) to display advertisements on our website. These ads help us keep all 47 tools free for everyone.

Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on SafeToolsHub. Specifically:

  • The DART cookie — Google uses the DART cookie (also known as the DoubleClick cookie) to serve ads to users based on their visits to SafeToolsHub and other websites on the internet. The DART cookie enables Google and its partners to serve targeted advertisements based on your browsing history across multiple sites.
  • Other advertising cookies — Google AdSense may also use additional cookies and web beacons to measure ad performance, frequency capping, and aggregated ad reporting.

You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ad Settings or by visiting www.aboutads.info/choices to opt out of third-party advertising cookies. You can also visit the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page.

4.4 Cookie Consent

When you first visit SafeToolsHub, we display a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your cookie preferences at any time by clearing your browser cookies and revisiting our site, which will trigger the consent banner again.

5. Third-Party Services

5.1 Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 to understand website traffic and usage patterns. Google Analytics collects anonymized data about page views and user interactions. No personally identifiable information is shared with Google Analytics. For more information, see Google's Privacy Policy.

5.2 Google AdSense

We display advertisements through Google AdSense to support our free tools. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies — including the DART cookie — to serve ads based on your visits to SafeToolsHub and other sites on the internet. Users may opt out of the use of the DART cookie by visiting the Google Ad Settings page. For more information about how Google uses data from sites that use its services, visit Google's Partner Sites Policy.

5.3 Formspree

Our contact page uses Formspree to handle form submissions. When you submit a contact form, your name, email, and message are sent through Formspree's servers. This is the only case where any user-provided data leaves the browser. See Formspree's Privacy Policy for details.

5.4 YouTube (Embedded Videos)

We embed educational videos from YouTube on our homepage. When you view a page with an embedded YouTube video, YouTube may set cookies and collect data according to Google's Privacy Policy. Video playback is loaded lazily (only when you scroll to the video section) to minimize unnecessary data collection.

6. Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access — Request information about any personal data we may hold about you.
  • Deletion — Request deletion of any personal data we may hold.
  • Opt-out of personalized ads — Visit Google Ad Settings or aboutads.info/choices to opt out of personalized advertising.
  • Opt-out of analytics — Disable analytics cookies through your browser settings or the Google Analytics opt-out extension.
  • Data portability — Since we don't collect personal data, there is typically nothing to export.
  • Object — Object to processing of your data for any purpose.

7. GDPR Compliance (European Users)

For users in the European Economic Area (EEA), we comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Since we collect minimal data, our compliance is straightforward:

  • Non-essential cookies (analytics and advertising) are only activated after you provide consent via our cookie banner.
  • You can exercise any of your GDPR rights by contacting us at privacy@safetoolshub.com.
  • We do not transfer personal data outside the EEA except through Google services, which maintain appropriate safeguards (Standard Contractual Clauses).

  • We do not sell personal information.
  • We do not collect personal information beyond what is described in this policy.
  • You have the right to know what data we collect, request deletion, and opt out of any sale of personal information (which we do not perform).

9. LGPD Compliance (Brazilian Users)

For users in Brazil, we comply with the Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados (LGPD). You have similar rights as described in Section 6 above, including access, correction, deletion, and the right to information about how your data is shared. Contact us at privacy@safetoolshub.com to exercise your rights.

10. Children's Privacy

Our tools are not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

We take data security seriously. Our security measures include:

  • HTTPS encryption — All connections to SafeToolsHub are encrypted with TLS.
  • Client-side architecture — No user data is transmitted to or stored on our servers.
  • Minimal dependencies — We keep our dependency footprint small to reduce supply chain risks.
  • Regular security reviews — We continuously review our code following OWASP security guidelines.
