Privacy Policy
Last updated: June 13, 2026
Overview
Toolium ("we", "our", "us") operates the website devtoolium.com. We are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy explains what data we collect and how we use it.
Files and Data You Process
Your files never leave your device. All Toolium tools run entirely in your web browser using client-side JavaScript. When you merge a PDF, compress an image, or use any tool, the processing happens locally on your computer. We do not upload, store, transmit, or have access to any files or data you process with our tools.
Analytics
We use Vercel Analytics, Google Analytics 4, and Microsoft Clarity to understand how visitors use our site. These services collect anonymous, aggregated data including:
- Pages visited and time spent
- Browser type, device type, and screen size
- Country and general region (not precise location)
- Referral source (how you found us)
- Core Web Vitals (page load performance)
- Aggregated interaction data such as clicks and scrolling, used to build heatmaps and session replays (Microsoft Clarity). Clarity masks text and form inputs by default, and the tools you use never transmit your files or their contents.
Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity only load after you accept cookies (see Cookie Consent below). Vercel Analytics is cookieless and privacy-friendly. This data is used solely to improve our website and tools. We do not sell this data to third parties.
Advertising
We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on our website. Google and its advertising partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites across the internet. We participate in the Google AdSense program and maintain an ads.txt file to declare authorized digital sellers.
You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out page.
Cookies
We use cookies for the following purposes:
- Analytics cookies - used to measure site usage and performance (Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity). Vercel Analytics does not use cookies.
- Advertising cookies - used by Google AdSense and its partners to serve relevant advertisements
You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies will not affect the functionality of our tools but may limit the relevance of advertisements shown.
Cookie Consent and Your Choices
When you first visit Toolium, a banner asks whether you accept cookies. Analytics cookies (Google Analytics, Microsoft Clarity) and advertising cookies (Google AdSense) are not loaded until you click "Accept". If you click "Decline" or ignore the banner, those scripts never run and only the cookieless, privacy-friendly Vercel Analytics remains active.
You can change your choice at any time using the "Cookie settings" link in the site footer. Your preference is stored locally in your browser, not on our servers.
Search Engine Indexing
We submit our site to search engines including Google, Bing, and Yandex to help users find our tools. We use structured data (JSON-LD) to describe our pages and tools to search engines. This metadata describes our content and does not include any user information.
Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services:
- Vercel - hosting and analytics (privacy policy)
- Google Analytics - site analytics (privacy policy)
- Microsoft Clarity - heatmaps and session analytics (privacy statement)
- Google AdSense - advertising (ad policy)
- Google Search Console - search performance monitoring (privacy policy)
Data Retention
We do not store any personal data on our servers. Analytics data is retained by Google Analytics and Vercel according to their respective retention policies. Advertising data is managed by Google AdSense under their data retention terms.
Children's Privacy
Toolium is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data. Since we do not store personal data directly, most data requests should be directed to the relevant third-party service (Google, Vercel). If you have questions about your rights, please contact us.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
