1. Data Collection & Storage

Browser-Based Processing: The vast majority of our tools operate directly in your browser using client-side JavaScript. This means:

✓Your JSON, XML, YAML, and other data remains exclusively on your device
✓We never store, save, or archive your input data
✓No data is transmitted to our servers for processing unless you explicitly use optional server-side features
✓You have complete control over your data at all times

When You Leave: Once you close your browser tab, all your data is cleared from memory. We have no way to access previous conversions or formatting operations.

2. Optional Server-Side Features

Some advanced features may require processing on our servers:

•AI-Based JSON Repair: When you use our AI-powered JSON fixer, your JSON is temporarily sent to our AI service for processing
•Blog Content: Article content is fetched from our servers
•Usage Analytics: We collect anonymized usage statistics to improve our service

For these features: Only the minimum necessary data is transmitted. We do not use or store your data for marketing purposes, except where required for analytics, advertising (Google AdSense), or legal compliance.

3. Analytics & Tracking

We use analytics tools to understand how users interact with our website and to improve our service:

•Google Analytics: Tracks page views, user sessions, and general site performance (anonymized data only)

Important: These tools do NOT collect your JSON data or any personal information. They only track your general browsing patterns.
