Privacy Policy

Welcome to ToolsRiver ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website toolsriver.com and use our online tools and services. By accessing or using our services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by this Privacy Policy. We encourage you to review this policy periodically as we may update it from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable laws.

We collect various types of information to provide and improve our services. The information we collect falls into the following categories:

We use the collected information for various legitimate business purposes including providing and maintaining our services, improving tool functionality, personalizing user experience, communicating with users about updates and new features, ensuring security and preventing fraud, complying with legal obligations, and analyzing usage patterns to enhance our offerings. We process your data based on your consent, contract necessity, legitimate interests, or legal compliance. Our tools are designed to process most data locally in your browser, minimizing data transmission and storage on our servers. We never sell your personal information to third parties and only share data as described in this policy.

We implement robust security measures to protect your information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. Our security practices include SSL encryption for data transmission, secure server infrastructure with regular security updates, access controls limiting data access to authorized personnel only, regular security audits and vulnerability assessments, data backup and recovery procedures, and incident response protocols for potential security breaches. While we strive to protect your information, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. We encourage users to take precautions when sharing sensitive information online.

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience and analyze website usage. Our cookies include essential cookies necessary for basic website functionality, analytics cookies to understand user behavior and improve our services, preference cookies to remember your settings and choices, and security cookies to protect against fraudulent activity. You can control cookie preferences through your browser settings, though disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality. We also use Google Analytics to analyze website traffic and user behavior, which helps us improve our services and user experience.

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We may share your information in limited circumstances including with service providers who assist in operating our website and providing services under strict confidentiality agreements, when required by law or to protect our rights and safety, in connection with business transfers such as mergers or acquisitions, and with your explicit consent for specific purposes. All third-party service providers are carefully vetted and contractually obligated to protect your information and use it only for the specified purposes. We ensure that any data sharing complies with applicable privacy laws and regulations.

You have several rights regarding your personal information:

• Access: Request access to your personal information we hold
• Correction: Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information
• Deletion: Request deletion of your personal information subject to legal requirements
• Portability: Request transfer of your data in a machine-readable format
• Objection: Object to processing of your information for certain purposes
• Withdraw Consent: Withdraw consent where processing is based on consent
• Complaint: Lodge a complaint with supervisory authorities

We retain your information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Personal information provided for newsletter subscriptions is retained until you unsubscribe or request deletion. Usage and analytics data may be retained for up to 24 months for service improvement purposes. Technical logs and security data may be retained for up to 12 months for security and fraud prevention. Tool input data is generally processed locally and not stored on our servers unless specifically required for the tool's functionality. When retention periods expire, we securely delete or anonymize your information.

Our services are not directed to children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without parental consent, we will take steps to delete such information promptly. Parents and guardians are encouraged to monitor their children's internet usage and help enforce this Privacy Policy by instructing their children never to provide personal information through our services without permission. If you believe we have collected information from a child under 13, please contact us immediately so we can take appropriate action.

We may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our practices, services, or applicable laws. When we make material changes, we will notify users through prominent notice on our website or by email if we have your email address. The updated policy will be effective immediately upon posting unless otherwise specified. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy regularly to stay informed about how we protect your information. Your continued use of our services after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy. Previous versions of this policy are available upon request for your reference.
