This Privacy Policy explains what information One Stop Online Tools (“we”, “us”) collects when you visit onestoponlinetools.com, and how it is used.
Privacy policy summary
- Most of our tools process your files and text in your browser, so they are not uploaded to our server. A few tools that check websites send the public web address you enter to our server.
- You do not need an account. If you join the newsletter, we keep your email address. We use Google Analytics to understand how the site is used.
- Messages sent through the contact form are emailed to us so we can reply.
- Push notifications are optional and only sent if you choose to subscribe.
The sections below explain each point in detail.
On this page
Files and text you use with our tools
Our tools run in your web browser. Files you open and text you type into a tool are processed on your own device and are not uploaded to or stored on our server. When you close the page, they are gone. If a specific tool ever works differently, its page says so clearly. For example, the Text to Speech tool uses voices provided by your browser, and some browsers use their maker’s online voice service. The Speech to Text tool uses your browser’s speech service; in Chrome this is provided by Google. Tools that check websites, such as the Meta Tags Analyzer, XML Sitemap Generator, Website SEO Report, Backlink Checker and Website Authority Checker, send the public web address you enter to our server, which fetches that page. Some of these results are kept for up to one hour so repeat checks are faster.
No accounts
You do not need an account to use this site, and we do not create user accounts. The only list we keep is our newsletter subscribers (see below).
Information collected automatically
Like almost every website, our hosting provider records standard server logs when pages are requested. These logs can include your IP address, browser type, the page requested and the time. They are used to keep the site secure and working, and are kept only for a limited period by the hosting provider.
Contact form
If you send us a message, your name, email address and message are emailed to us so we can reply. They are not stored on the website. To prevent spam, a scrambled (hashed) version of your IP address is kept for 10 minutes.
Newsletter
If you subscribe to our newsletter, we store your email address in our website’s database so we can send you updates about new tools and guides. We do not sell it. To be removed, send us a message through the contact page. We only add your address after you submit the form yourself (your consent), the form is sent over an encrypted HTTPS connection and is protected against automated sign-ups, and we never share your address with advertisers. Every newsletter email will include an unsubscribe link, and we delete your address within 30 days of a removal request.
Service providers
We use these services to run the site: Hostinger (web hosting), Cloudflare (content delivery and security, which processes visitor IP addresses), Google Analytics through Google Site Kit (visitor statistics) and OneSignal (optional push notifications). Each provider handles data under its own privacy policy.
Cookies and advertising
Visitors to this site do not need cookies to use the tools. We use Google Analytics, added through Google Site Kit, to understand how visitors use the site. It sets cookies and collects information such as the pages you view, your approximate location, and your device and browser type. Google handles this data under its own privacy policy. If we add advertising, such as Google AdSense, those services may also use cookies to show and measure ads. Where the law requires it, we will ask for your consent first, and this policy and our Cookie Policy will be updated before that happens.
Advertising and Google AdSense
To keep our tools free, we may show ads served by Google AdSense and other third-party advertising partners. These ads help pay for hosting and development.
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user’s prior visits to this website or other websites.
- Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalised advertising at www.aboutads.info/choices.
- Learn more in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
- Where the law requires it, for example in the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland, we ask for your consent before cookies are used for personalised advertising.
Ads are shown by our partners; we do not sell your personal information, and the files and text you use in our tools are processed in your browser and are not shared with advertisers.
Push notifications
If you click Subscribe on our notification prompt and allow notifications in your browser, we use OneSignal, a third-party push notification service, to send you messages about new guides and tools. To deliver them, OneSignal stores a push subscription identifier for your browser along with basic technical details such as your browser type, language and IP address. We do not receive your name or email address this way.
Subscribing is optional and the tools work the same without it. You can stop notifications at any time by blocking them for onestoponlinetools.com in your browser’s site settings. To learn how OneSignal handles this data, read the OneSignal privacy policy.
Children
This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to ask what personal data we hold about you, and to have it corrected or deleted. Because we hold very little, this usually means emails you have sent us. Contact us through our contact page for any request.
Changes
We may update this policy. The date at the top shows when it last changed.
