Privacy Policy

1. File Uploads, Input Data, and Tool Processing

Scope of Tools: EdgeUtils provides a variety of online utilities, including but not limited to code formatters, JWT decoders, RegEx testers, hash generators, image compressors, PDF organizers, and text/data conversion utilities.

Input Data & File Handling: When you submit text, code, tokens, parameters, or uploaded files to any tool on our site, this data is processed solely to perform the specific operation requested by you.

Backend & Client Processing: Operations may be executed locally within your web browser, on serverless/edge environments, or on backend cloud server infrastructure. We reserve the right to route data processing through server infrastructure across any geographic region.

Data Retention: Transmitted data, payloads, and files are held in temporary memory only for the duration required to execute the requested utility function and return the output. Temporary server logs or cache data are routinely purged.

No Inspection or Monetization: We do not manually view, inspect, analyze, retain, share, or sell the content of any code snippets, JWT tokens, files, or data inputs submitted through our tools, except as required by law.

2. Information Collected Automatically

When you visit edgeutilshub.com, we automatically record standard non-personally identifiable technical information to maintain service reliability, security, and performance:

Server & Access Logs: Your Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser type and version, operating system, language preferences, referring/exit URLs, date/time stamps, and request headers.

Cookies & Analytics: We and our third-party service providers (e.g., analytics tools, Google AdSense, or CDN providers) may use cookies, web beacons, and local storage to optimize performance, measure audience metrics, and display non-personalized or personalized advertisements. You can manage cookie preferences directly through your browser settings.

Google Advertising: We use Google AdSense to display ads. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or, for third-party vendors generally, by visiting www.aboutads.info/choices. For more information on how Google uses data when you use our Services, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services.

3. Data Transmission, Security & User Responsibility

Standard Protocols: Data submitted through EdgeUtils is transmitted over standard network protocols. We do not offer custom end-to-end cryptographic security or guarantees against network-level interception.

User Duty: You are solely responsible for ensuring that you do not input or upload unencrypted production secrets, master database credentials, private API keys, or proprietary data that you are not authorized to process on public online tools. You submit data to the Services at your own risk.

4. Global Compliance & Legal Basis (GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, UK & Global Privacy)

European Union (EU / EEA) & United Kingdom users: Under GDPR Article 6(1)(b), input data and temporary transfers are processed on the legal basis of Contractual Necessity — to deliver the specific developer or utility function requested by you. Data processed by our server infrastructure or third-party cloud hosting providers may be transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or the UK; by using the Services, you consent to these operational transfers. You have rights to request access to or deletion of personal data. Because input data is purged automatically after processing and server logs contain no identifiable user accounts, we generally hold no permanent user data.

United States & California residents: We do not sell personal data or document content for monetary consideration. Third-party advertising vendors may collect technical device identifiers or cookies to serve advertisements, which you can opt out of via your browser settings or standard network opt-out portals.

Worldwide applicability: This Privacy Policy applies universally to all visitors and users regardless of their geographic location or citizenship.

5. Disclaimer of Warranties and Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, EdgeUtils, its owners, and hosting partners operate the Services on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis. We explicitly disclaim liability for: errors, bugs, or inaccurate outputs generated by any conversion, decoding, or formatting tool; any loss of data, corrupted output files, or service downtime; and any direct, indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising out of your reliance on or use of our utilities.

6. Third-Party Links & Services

EdgeUtils may contain links to external websites, open-source repositories, or third-party tools. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, availability, or content of third-party platforms.

7. Children’s Privacy

EdgeUtils is intended for general audiences, developers, and technical professionals. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13 (or 16 in the EU). If you believe a child has submitted personal data to our site, please contact us for prompt removal.
