Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 26, 2026

Our Commitment to Your Privacy

At SwifTools, we take your privacy seriously. This policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your data when you use our online tools.

Key principle: We minimize data collection and process as much as possible locally in your browser. Your data stays with you.

Information We Collect

1. Locally Processed Data

Most of our tools process data entirely in your browser. This includes:

  • Text you format (JSON, XML, etc.)
  • Numbers you calculate (BMI, interest rates, etc.)
  • Data you convert (units, formats, etc.)
  • Passwords you generate

This data never leaves your device.

2. Anonymous Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand how our tools are used:

  • Pages visited
  • Tool usage statistics
  • Browser type and version
  • General geographic region (country level)

No personal identifiers are collected.

3. Cookies and Local Storage

We use cookies and local storage to:

  • Remember your theme preference (dark/light mode)
  • Store recently used tools
  • Analyze site usage (Google Analytics)

How We Use Your Data

  • • To improve our tools: Analytics help us understand which features are most useful
  • • To fix bugs: Error reports help us identify and resolve issues
  • • To enhance user experience: Preferences make your visits more convenient
  • • For security: Basic security logging protects against abuse

Data Sharing and Third Parties

We do not sell your data. Ever.

We only share data with:

  • Google Analytics: For anonymous usage analytics (as described above)
  • Google AdSense: To display relevant ads (if you choose to disable ad blocking)

Both services have their own privacy policies and are subject to GDPR and other privacy regulations.

Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures:

  • HTTPS encryption for all data in transit
  • No sensitive data stored on our servers
  • Regular security audits
  • Compliance with GDPR, CCPA, and other privacy laws

Your Rights

Under GDPR and other privacy regulations, you have the right to:

  • Access your data (though we don't store personal data)
  • Request deletion of any stored data
  • Opt out of analytics tracking
  • Opt out of personalized advertising
  • File a complaint with a supervisory authority
