Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 3, 2026

Overview

This Privacy Policy explains how UtilixTools (“we”, “us”) handles information when you visit utilixtools.com and use our free tools and guides.

What we collect

  • Technical data: basic server logs such as IP address, user agent, requested URL, and timestamps may be processed for security, abuse prevention, and reliability.
  • Analytics data: aggregate usage statistics through Google Analytics 4 when configured as described below.
  • Local browser data: some features (for example saved tools) may store preferences in your browser’s local storage. That data stays on your device unless you clear it.
  • Contact information: if you email us, we receive the information you choose to send.

Tool inputs you paste into forms are processed to generate results for your request. Do not submit passwords, private keys, or other secrets unless a tool clearly requires them and you accept the risk.

Cookies and Website Analytics (Google Analytics)

Our website uses the Google Analytics 4 (GA4) service, provided by Google Ireland Limited (“Google”), to understand how visitors use the site in aggregate.

Privacy-first defaults:

  • Consent Mode denied by default: analytics storage starts in a restricted mode.
  • No identifying analytics cookies without a more permissive setup: GA4 can operate with limited, cookieless measurement signals.
  • Purpose: page-view and usage statistics that help improve the directory and guides.

Legal basis: legitimate interest in understanding aggregate traffic while keeping measurement restricted by default, in line with applicable privacy requirements where they apply.

Advertising

UtilixTools may display advertisements in the future through Google AdSense or similar partners. When advertising is enabled:

  • Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads based on prior visits to this or other websites.
  • Google’s use of advertising cookies is covered by Google’s policies. Users can manage ad personalization through Google Ads Settings.
  • We will keep an ads.txt file and related disclosures active while ads are live.

If ads are not currently shown on the site, advertising cookies from AdSense are not intentionally loaded by UtilixTools.

How we use information

  • Operate and improve the website, tools, and guides
  • Prevent abuse, spam, and technical misuse
  • Respond to contact messages
  • Understand aggregate traffic patterns
  • Support monetization only when advertising is enabled

Data sharing

We do not sell your personal information. Service providers such as hosting, analytics, and (when enabled) advertising partners process data only as needed to provide their services.

Retention

Server logs and analytics data are kept only as long as needed for security, debugging, and reporting. Contact emails are retained as long as needed to handle your request.

Your choices

  • Clear browser storage to remove locally saved tool preferences.
  • Use browser controls to block or delete cookies.
  • Contact us for privacy questions or requests where applicable law provides additional rights.

Children’s privacy

UtilixTools is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
