Overview

YongTools ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you use our website at yongtools.pages.dev.

We believe in minimal data collection. Our tools are designed to work without requiring personal information, and we use privacy-focused analytics that do not track individual users.

Information We Collect

Analytics Data

We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, a privacy-focused analytics service that:

  • Does not use cookies
  • Does not track individual users
  • Does not collect personal information
  • Only collects aggregate, anonymous data about page views

Tool Request Submissions

When you submit a tool request through our "Request a Tool" feature, we collect:

  • Tool description (required)
  • Use case (optional)
  • Email address (optional, only if you provide it for follow-up)
  • Submission timestamp
  • IP address (for rate limiting purposes only)

This information is stored securely in Cloudflare KV storage and is used solely to consider and potentially develop requested tools.

Local Storage

We use your browser's local storage to save your theme preference (light/dark mode). This data never leaves your device and is not transmitted to our servers.

How We Use Your Information

We use the collected information to:

  • Understand aggregate usage patterns to improve our tools
  • Review and prioritize tool requests from users
  • Prevent spam and abuse through rate limiting
  • Remember your display preferences

Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share anonymous, aggregate statistics about tool usage, but this data cannot identify individual users.

Cookies

YongTools does not use cookies. We use Cloudflare Web Analytics, which is a cookie-less analytics solution. Your theme preference is stored in your browser's local storage, not in cookies.

Our website uses the following third-party services:

  • Cloudflare: Hosting and analytics (privacy policy: cloudflare.com/privacy)
  • Exchange Rate API: Currency conversion rates (no personal data is shared)

Data Retention

Tool request submissions are retained for as long as necessary to consider and potentially develop requested features. You may request deletion of your submission by contacting us.

Your Rights

You have the right to:

  • Access information we have about you
  • Request deletion of your tool request submissions
