Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Ontools (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you use our website and tools (the “Service”).

1) Information we collect

1.1 Information you provide

• Links you paste: When you paste a URL into our tools, our systems may process that link to generate results. We recommend not submitting private, sensitive, or login-protected links.
• Support emails: If you contact us, we receive the information you include in your message (such as your email address and the details you provide).

1.2 Information collected automatically

• Log data: We may collect basic technical data such as IP address (or partial IP), device type, browser type, referral page, timestamps, and error logs. This helps protect the Service from abuse and improve performance.
• Cookies and similar technologies: We may use cookies for essential functionality, preferences (like language), analytics, and advertising (see Cookie Policy).

2) How we use information

• To provide and operate the Service (processing links and returning results)
• To maintain security, prevent fraud, and enforce rate limits
• To troubleshoot issues and improve performance and user experience
• To communicate with you if you contact support
• To display ads that support the Service (where applicable)

3) How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited information in these cases:

• Service providers: Hosting, security, analytics, and advertising partners may process data to provide their services.
• Legal requirements: If required by law, court order, or valid legal process.
• Protection: To protect the rights, safety, and security of Ontools, our users, or the public.

4) Advertising and analytics

Ontools may use third-party analytics and advertising services. These services may use cookies or similar technologies to measure performance and show relevant ads. You can control cookies through your browser settings and, where available, consent tools.

5) Data retention

We retain information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including security, abuse prevention, and legal compliance. Logs may be retained for a limited period and then deleted or anonymized.

6) Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the Service and data. However, no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7) International users

If you access Ontools from outside the country where our servers are located, your information may be processed and stored in those locations.

8) Children’s privacy

Ontools is not intended for children where prohibited by law. If you believe a child has provided personal data to us, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

9) Your choices

• You can manage cookies in your browser settings.
• You can choose not to provide certain information (for example, not contacting support).

10) Changes to this Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Updates will be posted on this page.
