    Privacy Policy

    Last updated: January 2025

    Your Privacy Matters

    At CleanUpTxt, we take your privacy seriously. Unlike many online tools, we process everything locally in your browser. This means your text never leaves your device, and we never see, store, or transmit any of your data to our servers.

    How It Works

    All text cleaning operations happen entirely within your web browser using JavaScript. When you paste or type text into CleanUpTxt:

    • The text stays in your browser's memory
    • No data is uploaded to any server
    • All processing is done on your device
    • Once you close the tab, everything is gone

    Local Storage

    We use your browser's local storage to save your last input and preferences. This allows you to return to the page without losing your work. This data:

    • Never leaves your device
    • Is only accessible by you
    • Can be cleared by clearing your browser data
    • Is not transmitted to any server

    Analytics

    CleanUpTxt uses Cloudflare Web Analytics, a privacy-first analytics service that helps us understand which tools are most useful to our users. This service is:

    • Cookie-free: No cookies are set on your device
    • No personal data: We don't collect IP addresses or track individual users
    • GDPR & CCPA compliant: No consent banner required
    • Aggregate only: We only see page views, referrers, and device types

    Important: Your text content is never tracked or analyzed. Analytics only measure which pages you visit, not what you type.

    Local Storage Only

    We only use browser local storage for essential functionality:

    • Preferences: Dark mode setting, tool options
    • Session data: Your text input (stored locally, not transmitted)

    This data never leaves your device and can be cleared by clearing your browser's local storage.

    Advertising

    To keep CleanUpTxt free, we display advertisements from third-party networks (such as Google AdSense). These ad networks may use cookies to show you relevant ads based on your browsing history across websites.

    🔒 Your Text Stays Private

    Important: Ad networks do NOT have access to the text you process. All text manipulation happens locally in your browser and is never sent to our servers or ad networks.

    When we implement advertising in the future, you'll be able to control your preferences through:

    • Your browser's "Do Not Track" setting
    • Ad network opt-out tools
    • Ad blocker extensions (we understand!)

    Third-Party Services

    CleanUpTxt uses:

    • Advertisement networks for displaying ads (if applicable)
    • Font providers (Google Fonts) for typography

    These services operate under their own privacy policies and do not have access to your text content.

    Data Security

    Because all processing happens locally in your browser, your data is as secure as your device. We recommend:

    • Using a secure, updated web browser
    • Keeping your device secure
    • Clearing your browser data if using a shared computer

    Your Rights

    Since we don't collect or store your personal data, there's nothing for us to delete, modify, or export. You're in complete control of your data because it never leaves your browser.

    Changes to This Policy

    We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
