  • Processing happens locally on your device

1.2 Usage Information

We collect anonymous usage information to help us improve our Service, including:

  • Which tools are being used
  • General usage patterns
  • Performance metrics

This information is collected in an aggregated, anonymized form and cannot be used to identify individual users.

We may employ third-party companies and individuals to facilitate our Service ("Service Providers"), to provide the Service on our behalf, to perform Service-related services, or to assist us in analyzing how our Service is used.

These third parties have access to your information only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose. Our current Service Providers include:

5. Data Security

The security of your data is important to us, but 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.

Our client-side processing approach provides an additional layer of privacy protection, as your files and processed data never leave your device.
