This Privacy Policy explains how ProviaTools (“ProviaTools”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you visit proviatools.com, use our free online tools, read our blog, or contact us.
By using ProviaTools, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the website.
1. Who We Are
ProviaTools is a free online toolkit that provides SEO, developer, text, image, and productivity utilities. Most tools are designed to run in your browser so your inputs stay on your device whenever possible.
For privacy questions, contact us at hello@proviatools.com or through our Contact page.
2. Information We Collect
We collect only what we need to operate, secure, and improve the service.
2.1 Information you provide
- Contact form data — name, email address, subject, and message when you submit the contact form
- Optional correspondence — any details you include when emailing us directly
2.2 Information collected automatically
- Usage analytics — anonymous or aggregated events such as page views, category visits, and tool opens
- Technical data — IP address, browser type, device information, referring URL, and timestamps, primarily for security, abuse prevention, and diagnostics
- Cookie / local storage preferences — for example, whether you accepted the cookie notice
2.3 Information we generally do not collect from tools
Many ProviaTools utilities process text, code, images, or other inputs entirely in your browser. In those cases, tool inputs are not uploaded to our servers and are not stored by us. If a specific tool requires server-side processing, that will be clear from the tool’s behavior or description.
3. How We Use Information
We use collected information to:
- Respond to support and contact requests
- Operate, maintain, and improve the website and tools
- Understand which tools and pages are most useful
- Detect, prevent, and investigate spam, abuse, or security issues
- Comply with legal obligations when required
We do not sell your personal information.
4. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We may use:
- Essential cookies / storage — required for basic site functionality and remembering consent choices
- Analytics cookies or similar technologies — to measure traffic and improve product decisions
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect certain features. See also our cookie notice on the site.
5. Analytics
We may use first-party or third-party analytics to understand aggregate usage. Analytics data is used to improve performance, content, and tool discovery. Where possible, we prefer privacy-conscious configurations and avoid collecting unnecessary personal identifiers.
6. How We Share Information
We may share information only in these limited situations:
- Service providers — hosting, email delivery, security, or analytics providers who process data on our behalf
- Legal requirements — when disclosure is required by law, regulation, or valid legal process
- Business protection — to protect the rights, safety, and integrity of ProviaTools, our users, or the public
We do not share contact-form messages publicly.
7. Data Retention
We retain contact messages and related technical logs only as long as needed to respond, maintain security, and meet operational or legal requirements. Analytics data may be retained in aggregate form for longer periods.
8. Data Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
9. International Visitors
ProviaTools may be accessed from outside your country of residence. If you access the site from another region, your information may be processed in locations where our hosting or service providers operate.
10. Children’s Privacy
ProviaTools is not directed at children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.
11. Your Rights and Choices
Depending on your location, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, or restriction of personal information we hold about you. You may also object to certain processing or withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
To make a request, email hello@proviatools.com or use the Contact page. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling certain requests.
12. Third-Party Links
Our website may link to third-party websites or resources. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies. We are not responsible for the content or practices of external sites.
13. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will change when we do. Continued use of ProviaTools after an update means you accept the revised policy.
