Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 8, 2024

Welcome to The Ultimate Toolkit ("us", "we", or "our"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information in relation to our website and its tools (the "Service").

Information We Collect

Our Service is designed with privacy in mind. Many of our tools operate entirely client-side, meaning the data you input is processed directly in your browser and is not sent to our servers.

  • Client-Side Data: For tools like text converters, calculators, image manipulators (that don't involve AI server calls), QR code generators/scanners, etc., all processing happens locally in your browser. We do not collect or store the data you enter into these tools.
  • Browser Local Storage: Some tools, like the "To-Do List" and "Notes App", utilize your browser's local storage to save your data. This data is stored only on your device and in your browser, and we do not have access to it.
  • Geolocation Data: Tools like "Geolocation Finder" and "Weather Forecast" may request access to your device's location. This permission is explicitly requested by your browser, and the location data is used solely to provide the tool's functionality (e.g., fetch coordinates, provide a weather link). We do not store this location data on our servers.
  • AI-Powered Tools: For tools explicitly marked as "AI-Powered" (e.g., Text Summarizer, Rephrasers), the text you input is sent to our AI service provider (currently Google via Genkit) for processing. We do not store this input text on our servers after the AI processing is complete. Please refer to Google's privacy policy for how they handle data.
  • Google Analytics: If enabled, we use Google Analytics to collect anonymous usage data to help us understand how our Service is used and to improve it. This may include information like your IP address (anonymized), browser type, operating system, pages visited, and time spent on pages. This information is aggregated and does not personally identify you. You can learn more about Google Analytics' privacy practices and opt-out options on their website.

How We Use Your Information

Any information processed by our Service is used for the following purposes:

  • To provide and maintain the functionality of our tools.
  • To improve and optimize our Service based on aggregated usage patterns.
  • To respond to your inquiries if you contact us directly.

Data Storage

As mentioned, most data you input into our tools is processed client-side or stored in your browser's local storage. We do not maintain databases of user-inputted content for client-side tools.

For AI-powered tools, the data is temporarily processed by our AI service provider and is not permanently stored by The Ultimate Toolkit.

Third-Party Services

We may use third-party services for specific functionalities:

  • Google (Genkit/Gemini API): For AI-powered text processing tools.
  • Google Analytics: For website traffic analysis (if enabled).
  • Google Search: The "Weather Forecast" tool links to Google Search for weather data.
  • cdnjs.cloudflare.com (pdf.js): Some PDF tools may load components from this CDN.

These third-party services have their own privacy policies. We encourage you to review them.

Cookies

The Ultimate Toolkit website itself does not use cookies for tracking users directly, beyond what may be used by Next.js framework defaults or by third-party services like Google Analytics (if enabled). You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings.

Security

We strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect any information that might be indirectly collected (like analytics data). However, remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While many of our tools are client-side, minimizing data transmission, always be cautious about the information you handle online.

Children's Privacy

Our Service is not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
