Privacy Policy

Tool Web values your privacy and transparently explains what information it collects and how it is used.

Last updated: August 7, 2026

1. Information We Collect

Tool Web does not require sign-up and does not directly collect personally identifying information such as your name. However, the following information may be recorded automatically to operate the Service, and you may optionally leave your email in the contact form.

  • Access logs — the page path visited, access time, and IP address. Used for visit statistics and abuse prevention.
  • Approximate location — an estimated country/region-level location based on your IP address. It does not identify an exact address or individual.
  • Inquiry content — the content you send via the contact form, the IP address at the time of writing, and the email address you optionally provide (for replies). Used for responding to inquiries and preventing spam.

What you enter into the tools (e.g., text, images, calculation values) is, in most cases, processed only inside your browser and is not sent to or stored on a server unless otherwise stated.

2. How We Use Information

  • Providing the Service, analyzing usage, and improving features
  • Detecting and preventing errors, abuse, and unauthorized access
  • Responding to inquiries

3. Cookies and Advertising

Google AdSense ads may appear on Tool Web's general detailed tools and Insight articles to help cover operating costs. The root, home, category, trust and policy hubs, game pages, and trend pages do not load the ad-serving script.

  • Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits.
  • On pages with Google ad tags, cookies or local storage may be used to serve ads, manage frequency, measure performance, and prevent invalid use.
  • You can turn off personalized ads at Google Ads Settings, or opt out of third-party vendor cookies at www.aboutads.info.
  • Whether ads are actually shown or personalized can vary by region, the user's consent choice, browser settings, and Google Account settings.
  • For more about how Google handles advertising data, see the Google Advertising Policies and the AdSense cookie guidance.

Google advertising guidance last checked: August 7, 2026. Ad and consent settings can change in an external console; contact us if this explanation differs from what is actually shown.

4. Third-Party Services

The Service uses the following external services.

  • Google AdSense — ad delivery
  • IP location lookup service — approximate IP-based location (for network tools and access statistics)

Each service processes data according to its own privacy policy.

Some of the services above (e.g., Google) operate servers overseas, so your personal data may be transferred and processed abroad in the process.

5. Retention and Protection

Retention periods by item collected are as follows; data is destroyed automatically or periodically once the period passes.

  • Visit logs — 90 days
  • Login attempt records — 1 day
  • IP-based location data — 180 days
  • Inquiry content — kept to respond to inquiries and handle potential disputes, then destroyed once the purpose is fulfilled.

The Service does not sell the information it collects and does not provide it to third parties at its discretion, except as required by law.

6. Children's Privacy

The Service is not directed at children under 14 and does not knowingly collect children's personal information.

7. Your Rights

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, though this may change how some features are displayed. If you want to check or delete information related to you, you can request it via the contact form.

8. Changes to This Policy

This policy may be revised in line with relevant laws or changes to the Service, and any changes will be posted on this page.
