At Xnipertools ("we", "us", "our"), accessible from xnipertools.com, your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected, how it is used and protected, and what rights you have when you visit our website and use our free online tools. By using the Service, you agree to the practices described here.
Information we collect
Our tools are designed to work right in your browser. You do not need to create an account, and we do not ask for personal details to use any tool. We collect information in three limited ways:
- Data you enter into a tool (for example a date, some text or an image) is processed on your own device. It is not sent to or stored on our servers.
- Information you choose to send us — for example, if you email us or use our contact, bug-report or tool-request forms, we receive the details you provide (such as your name, email address and message) so we can reply.
- Automatically collected data — like most websites, our servers and analytics and advertising partners may automatically receive standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, referring page and the pages you visit. This is used to keep the site secure, understand usage and serve ads.
If you choose to subscribe to our newsletter, we collect your email address (through our email provider, MailerLite) for the sole purpose of sending you updates about new tools. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email we send.
How we use your information
We use the limited information we collect to: operate, maintain and improve the website and its tools; respond to your messages and requests; understand which tools are popular so we can build better ones; display advertising that keeps the tools free; and keep the Service secure and prevent abuse. We do not sell your personal information.
Cookies
Like most websites, Xnipertools may use "cookies" — small files stored on your device — to remember your preferences (such as light or dark mode), measure usage and support advertising. You can block or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings, though some features may not work as smoothly if you do.
Advertising & Google AdSense
We may display ads served by third-party vendors, including Google AdSense. These partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
- Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies (including the DART cookie) to serve ads to our users.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to our site and/or other sites.
- You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, or opt out of third-party vendor cookies at www.aboutads.info.
- For visitors in the European Economic Area, the UK and other regions that require it, we ask for your consent before personalised ads and non-essential cookies are used, in line with Google's requirements.
You can learn more about how Google uses information from sites that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
Analytics
We may use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use our site — for example, which tools are most popular and how people move around the site. This information is aggregated and is not used to personally identify you.
Data retention
Because data entered into our tools is processed on your device, we do not retain it. Messages you send us by email or form are kept only as long as needed to handle your request. Newsletter email addresses are kept until you unsubscribe. Aggregated analytics and advertising data are retained according to our providers' standard retention periods.
Data security
The site is served over a secure HTTPS connection, and we take reasonable technical measures to protect any information we handle. However, no method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Your privacy rights (GDPR & CCPA)
Depending on where you live, you may have rights over your personal data, including the right to:
- access the personal information we hold about you;
- request correction of inaccurate information;
- request deletion of your information ("right to be forgotten");
- object to or restrict certain processing, including direct marketing;
- request a copy of your data in a portable format;
- withdraw consent at any time, where processing is based on consent;
- opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information (we do not sell your data).
To exercise any of these rights, email us at [email protected] and we will respond as required by law. The legal bases we rely on are your consent, our legitimate interest in running and improving the site, and compliance with legal obligations.
International users
Xnipertools is operated from Pakistan and uses global service providers. By using the Service, you understand that your information may be processed in countries other than your own, which may have different data-protection laws.
Third-party links
Our site may contain links to other websites and services. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those external sites, and we encourage you to read their privacy policies.
Children's privacy
Our tools are intended for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your country). If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will remove it promptly.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "last updated" date, and significant changes may be highlighted on the site.
