Privacy Policy for pryntool

Last Updated: October 26, 2023

1. Introduction

Welcome to pryntool ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information when you visit our website and use our online tools. Our core principle is to collect as little information as possible while providing a fast and efficient service.

By using pryntool, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

2. Information We Do NOT Collect

We want to be clear about what we don't do. We do not:

  • Require you to create an account or sign up to use our tools.
  • Track your personal identity across different sessions or websites.
  • Sell, rent, or trade your personal information with any third party for marketing purposes.

3. Information We Collect and Why

Our data collection is limited to what is necessary to provide and improve our services.

a) Information You Provide

When you use our tools, you may enter information such as text, URLs, or files.

  • Client-Side Processing: For many of our tools (e.g., Word Counter, Password Generator, Age Calculator), all processing happens directly in your browser ("client-side"). The data you enter never reaches our servers.
  • Server-Side Processing (AI Tools): For more complex tools like the Text Summarizer, Paraphrasing Tool, and AI Essay Writer, the data you submit (e.g., text) is sent to our servers and/or third-party AI service providers to be processed. This data is used solely to perform the requested function and generate a result for you. We do not store your input text or the generated output on our servers after the request is completed.
  • Image and File Processing: When you use a tool like the Image Compressor, your file is temporarily uploaded to our server for processing. The original and processed files are deleted from our servers automatically within a short period (typically one hour).

b) Usage Data

Like most websites, our servers may automatically log generic, non-personal information when you visit pryntool. This "Usage Data" may include your IP address, browser type, browser version, the pages you visit, the time and date of your visit, and time spent on those pages. This data is used for website security, performance monitoring, and to understand how users interact with our site so we can improve it. This data is anonymized and not linked to you personally.

4. Cookies

Cookies are small files stored on your device. We use them minimally. We may use cookies for essential site functions or for analytics purposes to help us understand traffic patterns and improve the user experience. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, some parts of our service may not function properly.

5. Third-Party Services

We may use third-party services to operate our website. These third parties have their own privacy policies.

  • Google Fonts: We use Google Fonts to display text on our website. When you visit our site, your browser may send requests to Google's servers to fetch these font files. You can read more in Google's Privacy Policy.
  • AI Service Providers: Our AI-powered tools may rely on third-party APIs (e.g., from OpenAI or similar providers) to function. As stated above, your data is sent to them for processing but is not used to train their models or stored long-term, as per our agreements with them.

6. Data Security

The security of your data is important to us. We use standard technical and administrative security measures to protect the information we handle. However, please remember that no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

7. Children's Privacy

Our services are not intended for use by children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13. If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so that we can take steps to remove that information.

8. Links to Other Websites

Our website may contain links to other websites that are not operated by us. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that third party's site. We strongly advise you to review the Privacy Policy of every site you visit. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.

9. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date at the top. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
