Privacy

Your files stay on your device. The site counts page views with Google Analytics, which sets cookies, and stores one list of recently opened tools in your browser. Nothing else.

Last updated 30 August 2026. This policy describes www.useanytools.com. Read the short version above, then the specifics below. Each section names the thing doing the work, so you are able to check the claim rather than trust the page.

Your files

No tool uploads your file. Every one of the 616 tools runs inside your browser tab, in a Web Worker, using WebAssembly and the browser's own APIs. Your file is read from your disk, processed in memory, and written back to your disk. No server receives the bytes, because no server is involved in the work.

The same applies to text you type into a tool: passwords, keys, tokens, certificates and query strings are read by code running on your machine. None of them leave.

What this site stores in your browser

Two things, both on your device, neither sent anywhere:

• A list of recently opened tools. The search palette keeps up to four tool names under the key anytools:recent in localStorage, so pressing the shortcut shows what you last used. Clearing site data removes the list.
• A copy of the site itself. A service worker stores the pages and code in Cache Storage on your first visit, which is what makes the tools work with no network. The cache holds this site's own files. Your documents are never written to disk by the site.

Google Analytics sets its own cookies, named _ga and _ga_WLRC23NNCW. They hold a randomly generated number that tells one browser apart from another so a repeat visit is not counted twice. The number is not a name, an email address or an account, and this site never joins one to a person. Nothing else on the site sets a cookie.

What the site counts

Page views, through two measurement tools. Vercel Web Analytics is served from this domain and uses no cookie, so a visit through it is not linked to you or to your other visits. Google Analytics 4 (property G-WLRC23NNCW) runs from Google's servers, sets the cookies named above, and reports the page URL, the referrer, and coarse device and location information to Google, who process it under their own terms.

Your files are not part of the measurement. Filenames are not part of the measurement. Anything typed into a tool is not part of the measurement. The analytics script sees the address of the page, in the same way a web server log does.

Server logs

The site is hosted on Vercel, and their servers log requests for the pages and files they serve. Those logs include your IP address, the request time and the user agent, and Vercel keeps them under their own retention policy. This is how every website works. Uploading is still not involved: the request asks for a page, and your file is not in it.

Machine learning models

Four tools use a model: background removal, image upscaling, image OCR and scanned PDF OCR. Each asks before downloading, and shows the size first. The model file is served from this site, not from a third party, and your image is never sent with the request. The download fetches the model to your device, then the work happens there.

Third parties

The site loads no third-party fonts, no advertising, no social widgets, no session recording, and no external CDN. Google Analytics is the one script loaded from another company, and it is the only reason this site talks to a server other than its own. A test in the build still fails if a tool makes a request to any origin beyond this one and the two Google Analytics hosts, so a file leaving your device breaks the build.

How to verify this

Do not take the page's word for any of the above:

• Open your browser devtools, watch the network panel, and run a tool on a file.
• Turn off your network and run the tool anyway. Work with no connection is the proof.
• Read the counter on the homepage. It reports every request made to another server, including the Google Analytics ones, so the number it shows is the number your own network panel shows.
• Read the source. Every tool is one file, and the whole site is open.

Your choices

• Clear site data in your browser settings to remove the recents list and the cached copy of the site.
• Use a private window for a session with nothing kept.
• Enable a tracker blocker, or install Google's own opt-out browser add-on. Blocking either analytics script leaves every tool working, because no tool depends on either one.

Children

The site is for general use and asks for no personal details at any point, from anyone. No account exists to create.

Changes

A change to what the site collects means a change to this page, with the date at the top updated in the same release. The wording is kept in the repository beside the code, so the two move together.
