Privacy Policy

This policy explains how DevKitLab approaches privacy for browser-based developer tools. The short version: the site is designed to process many tasks locally in your browser, avoid account requirements for core tools, and keep data handling clear on each page.

Last updated: May 14, 2026

Scope of this policy

This Privacy Policy applies to DevKitLab pages and tools available through the DevKitLab website. It covers how the site handles tool input, generated output, browser preferences, files selected by users, and ordinary website metadata.

DevKitLab is a utility site, not an account-based SaaS product. Core tools are intended to work without sign-in or registration.

Local processing first

Many DevKitLab tools are designed to run directly in your browser. Examples include text processing, JSON formatting, JSON conversion, Base64 encoding and decoding, URL encoding and decoding, color tools, image utilities, QR code generation, password generation, hash generation, ID generation, and date or time conversion.

When a tool can complete its task locally, your input is processed in the browser session. The site does not need to upload that input to a server for the tool to work.

Information you enter into tools

Tool inputs may include text snippets, JSON, CSV, URLs, images, colors, timestamps, tokens, generated data, or other values you choose to paste or select. You should avoid entering production secrets, private keys, real passwords, regulated personal data, payment data, or customer records unless you are certain the tool and context are appropriate.

Generated output is usually displayed in the page so you can copy or download it. Downloaded files are created by your browser at your request.

Files and images

Some tools allow you to select files or images from your device. These tools are intended to process selected files in the browser where possible, such as image compression, image conversion, image metadata viewing, Base64 conversion, or EXIF removal.

A selected file remains under your control. Be careful when processing sensitive files, because browser-side tools still display and transform the content you provide.

Local storage and preferences

DevKitLab may use localStorage to remember interface preferences such as theme selection and sidebar state. These preferences are stored in your browser on your device.

You can clear these preferences through your browser settings. Clearing site data may reset the interface to default behavior.

Cookies, advertising, and analytics

The current core tool experience does not require user accounts. DevKitLab may rely on normal browser features and hosting infrastructure to serve pages, and may use basic analytics or monitoring to understand page performance, errors, and aggregate usage.

DevKitLab plans to support free tools through advertising services such as Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies, web beacons, IP addresses, device information, or other identifiers to serve ads, limit ad frequency, prevent abuse, measure ad performance, and provide personalized or non-personalized ads depending on user settings.

You can manage or clear cookies in your browser settings. You can also read Google’s advertising privacy explanation to understand how Google uses advertising-related data: https://policies.google.com/technologies/ads.

Network-dependent tools

Some present or future tools may need a network lookup or external request to provide their result. A network-dependent tool is different from a fully local text or file converter.

When a tool depends on network data, the relevant query or request may be sent to the service required to complete that feature. Tool pages should make this dependency clear when it matters.

Security limitations

  • Do not treat browser-generated examples as production secrets unless your own system handles storage, rotation, authorization, and auditing.
  • Do not paste private keys, live access tokens, production passwords, or regulated records into utility tools unless you have reviewed the risk.
  • Client-side processing reduces unnecessary upload, but it does not replace your organization’s security, compliance, and data handling policies.
  • Always review generated code, converted data, and downloaded files before using them in production.

Children’s privacy

DevKitLab is designed for technical and educational utility work. It is not directed at children and does not intentionally collect personal information from children.

Policy changes

This policy may be updated as DevKitLab changes. Material changes should be reflected by updating the date on this page and revising the relevant sections.
