Privacy Policy

At The Open Tools (accessible from TheOpenTools.com), one of our main priorities is the privacy of our visitors. This Privacy Policy document contains types of information that is collected and recorded by The Open Tools and how we use it.

1. The "Client-Side" Promise (Data Sovereignty)

Unlike other utility websites, The Open Tools is architected to prioritize user privacy. The majority of our tools (including Word Counters, Converters, and Generators) operate using Client-Side JavaScript.

• No File Uploads: When you "upload" a file to convert it (e.g., JPG to PNG), the file is processed strictly within your web browser's memory. It is NOT uploaded to our servers.
• No Data Storage: We do not have a database that stores the text, images, or passwords you generate or analyze on this site.

2. Advertising and Cookies

To keep this website free, we use third-party advertising companies to serve ads when you visit our website.

Google AdSense & DoubleClick Cookie:

• Google is a third-party vendor on our site.
• It uses cookies, known as DART cookies, to serve ads to our site visitors based upon their visit to www.website.com and other sites on the internet.
• However, visitors may choose to decline the use of DART cookies by visiting the Google ad and content network Privacy Policy at the following URL: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads

3. Log Files

The Open Tools follows a standard procedure of using log files. These files log visitors when they visit websites. The information collected by log files includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamp, referring/exit pages, and possibly the number of clicks. These are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable. The purpose of the information is for analyzing trends, administering the site, tracking users' movement on the website, and gathering demographic information.

4. CCPA Privacy Rights (Do Not Sell My Personal Information)

Under the CCPA, among other rights, California consumers have the right to:

• Request that a business that collects a consumer's personal data disclose the categories and specific pieces of personal data that a business has collected about consumers.
• Request that a business delete any personal data about the consumer that a business has collected.
• Request that a business that sells a consumer's personal data, not sell the consumer's personal data.
