Privacy policy
Last updated:
This policy explains what information BrightFreeTools (“we”, “us”) handles when you use brightfreetools.com, and why. The short version: your files never leave your device, we use no tracking cookies, and we do not sell anything about you.
Your files
All of our tools process files inside your web browser, on your own phone or computer. Your photos and documents are never uploaded to our server or to anyone else. We cannot see them, and nothing is stored after you close the page.
Some tools remove hidden details, such as the location where a photo was taken, from the new file they create. That happens on your device too.
Information collected when you visit
Like every website, our pages are delivered over the internet, which involves some technical data:
- Cloudflare delivers and protects this website. To do that it processes your IP address, browser type and the pages you request. Cloudflare may set a strictly necessary security cookie if it has to check that a visitor is not an automated bot. See Cloudflare’s privacy policy.
- Our web hosting provider keeps standard server logs (IP address, date and time, page requested, browser type) for security and to fix problems. These logs are kept for a limited time and are not used to identify you.
- Cloudflare Web Analytics counts visits so we know which tools are useful. It does not use cookies, does not track you across websites and does not identify individual visitors.
Stored on your device
If you switch between light and dark mode, your choice is saved in your browser’s local storage so the site remembers it. It never leaves your device, and you can clear it at any time in your browser settings. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies.
If you write to [email protected], we receive your email address and your message. Emails are delivered through Cloudflare Email Routing to our mailbox. We use them only to reply to you and to improve the site, and we delete them when they are no longer needed. You can ask us at any time to delete your messages.
What we do not do
- We do not sell, rent or share your personal information.
- We do not build profiles of visitors.
- We do not show ads at the moment. If that changes, this policy will be updated before any advertising appears, including how you can control it.
Children
This website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to ask what personal information we hold about you, to have it corrected or deleted, or to object to how it is used. Because our tools never receive your files, in practice this only concerns emails you have sent us. Write to [email protected] and we will answer within 30 days.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we will update the date at the top of this page. Important changes will be announced on the site.
