Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2026

omnitoolbox is built on a simple premise: tools that can run in your browser should run in your browser. This policy explains exactly what data is processed when you use the site, what goes to a server, and what doesn't.

This policy applies to the website at omnitoolbox.net and all tools hosted on it. It does not apply to third-party services that tools may call (such as Proton or Google AdSense) — those are governed by their own privacy policies, linked where relevant.

Short version: Most tools process your data entirely in your browser. When a tool does need a server, we read only what the tool requires and we do not log your queries or store personal data.

Data at a glance

The table below is a complete reference for what omnitoolbox does and does not collect.

Data typeCollected?Notes
IP addressTransientRead by Cloudflare infrastructure and by server-side tools (My IP, VPN Check). Not stored in any database by omnitoolbox.
Tool inputs — browser-only toolsNoPasswords, hashes, JSON, Base64, regex, JWTs, etc. never leave your browser tab.
Tool inputs — server-side toolsTransientDomain names and URLs sent to our Workers to fetch results. Not logged or stored.
First-party cookiesNoWe set no cookies. Theme preference is stored in localStorage only.
Third-party cookies (AdSense)YesGoogle AdSense may set cookies for interest-based advertising. See §4.
Analytics / tracking pixelsNoNo Google Analytics, Plausible, Mixpanel, or equivalent tracking script is loaded.
Error / crash monitoringNoNo Sentry, Datadog, or similar tool is in use.
User accounts or profilesNoThe site has no registration, login, or account system.
Email addressesNoNot collected except when you email us directly.
Payment dataNoThe Service is free. No payments are processed by omnitoolbox.
Infrastructure logs (Cloudflare)Yes — via hostCloudflare logs standard access data (IP, path, timestamp, status code) per its own retention policy.

1. Tools that run entirely in your browser

The following tools process all input locally, using browser APIs. Your data is never sent to our servers or any third party:

For these tools, the only network requests are the initial page load (HTML, CSS, JS from Cloudflare's CDN) and, if you have not blocked it, the Google AdSense script.

2. Tools that require a server request

Some tools need to make outbound requests to function. In each case, the request is the minimum necessary to return a result and is not logged beyond what Cloudflare's infrastructure records as standard access logs.

Tool What is sent Why
My IP & Privacy Audit Your browser's request itself (IP address, headers, TLS version) The tool reads connection metadata from the incoming request to show your public IP, ISP, geolocation, and TLS grade
VPN & Proxy Checker Your public IP address Checked against ASN and reputation databases to determine if the IP belongs to a VPN, datacenter, or residential ISP
WHOIS Lookup The domain name you enter Our server queries WHOIS databases on your behalf and returns the registration record
DNS Lookup The domain name and record type you select Our server queries authoritative DNS resolvers and returns the records
SSL Certificate Checker The domain name you enter Our server connects to the domain's HTTPS port and retrieves the certificate chain
HTTP Header Inspector The URL you enter Our server makes an HTTP request to the URL and returns the response headers
Website Down Checker The domain or URL you enter Our server attempts to reach the target and reports whether it is reachable
Meta Tags Checker The URL you enter Our server fetches the page HTML and extracts Open Graph, Twitter Card, and standard meta tags

We do not combine server-side query data with any user identity or store it in a database. Standard infrastructure logs (IP addresses, timestamps, response codes) are retained only as long as required by Cloudflare's default log retention policy.

3. Cookies

omnitoolbox sets one first-party item in localStorage: your theme preference (dark, light, or system). This is stored locally in your browser and never transmitted to any server.

No session cookies, authentication cookies, or tracking cookies are set by omnitoolbox directly.

Third-party cookies may be set by Google AdSense (see section 4 below).

4. Advertising — Google AdSense

omnitoolbox displays advertising provided by Google AdSense. Google AdSense is a third-party advertising network that may use cookies and device identifiers to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. This is known as interest-based or personalised advertising.

Google's use of advertising cookies is governed by Google's own Privacy Policy at policies.google.com/privacy. You can manage Google's use of your data for advertising through:

omnitoolbox does not pass personally identifiable information to Google AdSense. The ads you see are determined by Google's systems based on contextual signals from the page and, if you have not opted out, your browsing history.

5. Affiliate links

Some links on this site are affiliate links, primarily to Proton's suite of privacy-focused services (VPN, Mail, Drive, Pass). When you click an affiliate link and complete a purchase, omnitoolbox may earn a commission at no additional cost to you.

Affiliate links are not disguised as editorial content. They appear in the navigation bar and in tool pages where Proton's services are directly relevant (for example, the VPN checker page links to Proton VPN). Affiliate relationships have no influence on how tool results are generated or displayed.

6. Analytics

omnitoolbox may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand aggregate traffic — page views, top tools, referrer sources, and browser/OS breakdown. If used, this is aggregated data only. Individual users are not identified, profiled, or tracked across sessions.

No analytics scripts that share individual-level data with third parties are in use on this site beyond Google AdSense (covered in section 4).

7. Third-party services

Server-side tools make requests to third-party APIs to fetch results:

omnitoolbox does not control the privacy practices of these third-party data sources. We pass only the minimum query required (a domain name, URL, or IP address) and do not include any identifiers that would allow the third party to link a query to you.

8. Data retention

omnitoolbox does not maintain a database of user queries, tool inputs, or results. The site does not operate user accounts and therefore does not store personal profiles.

Cloudflare, our infrastructure provider, may retain server access logs (IP address, request path, timestamp, HTTP status code) in accordance with its own data retention policy. These logs are used for abuse detection and infrastructure monitoring. For details, see Cloudflare's Privacy Policy.

9. GDPR — European users

If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA) or United Kingdom, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or UK GDPR may apply to the processing of your personal data.

Legal basis for processing

Your rights under GDPR

You have the right to: access personal data held about you; rectify inaccurate data; erase data ("right to be forgotten"); restrict processing; data portability; and object to processing based on legitimate interest. Because omnitoolbox does not store personal data in any database, most of these rights are fulfilled by design. For Cloudflare infrastructure logs, please refer to Cloudflare's Privacy Policy. For AdSense data, refer to Google's Privacy Policy.

International data transfers

omnitoolbox is hosted on Cloudflare's global network. Your requests may be processed at a Cloudflare data centre outside your country. Cloudflare maintains Standard Contractual Clauses and other transfer mechanisms required under GDPR. Google AdSense similarly operates under GDPR-compliant transfer frameworks.

Data retention

omnitoolbox retains no personal data. Cloudflare's infrastructure log retention is governed by Cloudflare's own policies. We do not have access to or control over those logs beyond what Cloudflare exposes in its dashboard.

10. CCPA / CPRA — California residents

If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) provides you with specific rights regarding your personal information.
