Privacy
Your files stay on your device. The site counts page views and stores one list of recently opened tools in your browser. Nothing else.
Last updated 29 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 388 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:recentin 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.
No cookies are set. No profile is built. No identifier is assigned to you.
What the site counts
Page views, through Vercel Web Analytics. The script records the page URL, the referrer, and coarse device information such as browser and country. No cookie is used and no cross-site identifier is created, so a visit is not linked to you or to your other visits.
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. The only script beyond this site's own code is Vercel Web Analytics, served from this domain. A test in the build fails if any tool makes a request to another origin during a run.
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, which reports requests made to another server.
- 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. Blocking the analytics script leaves every tool working, because no tool depends on the script.
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.
