Privacy policy

Last updated: 9 November 2026

This policy explains what information FreeToolsOnWeb (https://freetoolsonweb.com) collects when you use the site, how it is used, and the choices you have. We've tried to keep it short and in plain language.

Files and text you use with our tools

Our PDF, image, text, calculator and developer tools run inside your web browser. Files you select, text you paste and numbers you enter are processed on your own device and are not uploaded to our servers. We cannot see, store or recover them. Some tools, such as the word counter, save your latest input in your browser's local storage so it survives a page refresh. That data stays on your device and you can clear it at any time from the tool or your browser settings. We also remember the last few tools you opened, in the same local storage, to show them on the homepage.

Information collected automatically

Like most websites, our hosting provider records standard server logs, such as IP address, browser type, the page requested and the time of the request, to keep the site secure and working. If analytics is enabled, we use Google Analytics to understand which pages are visited and how the site performs. Google Analytics uses cookies and collects information such as pages viewed, approximate location (city level), device type and how you arrived at the site. We use this only in aggregate to improve the site.

Advertising and cookies

We use Google AdSense to show advertisements. Please note:

  • Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites.
  • Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
  • You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising at www.aboutads.info.
  • Learn more about how Google uses data at How Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Visitors from the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland are shown a consent message, provided through Google's consent tools, before personalised ads or analytics cookies are used.

Your choices

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, use your browser's private mode, or install an ad blocker. The tools keep working either way. Under India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023 and similar laws, you may ask us what personal data we hold about you and request its correction or deletion. Since we don't run user accounts, we usually hold nothing beyond the email messages you send us.

Children

The site is a general-audience utility and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Messages you send us

If you use our contact form, your name, email address, subject and message are sent to our contact API and stored in our MongoDB database with a submission date and handling status. Unlike the files processed by our tools, a contact message is sent to us so we can respond. If you contact us by email, your message is kept in our email inbox. We use these details to respond to your enquiry and don't add you to a mailing list. You can ask us to delete your contact messages by emailing the address below.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy when the site changes; the date at the top shows the latest version. Questions about privacy can be sent to contact@freetoolsonweb.com.
