Privacy policy
This policy explains what information OneStopWebTools collects, what it does not collect, and the choices you have. It is written to match how the site is actually built.

Summary
- The tools run in your web browser. Text you type and files you open in a tool are processed on your device and are not sent to our servers.
- We do not require an account and do not ask for your name or email address to use any tool.
- Your browser remembers your light/dark theme choice in local storage. We do not set cookies.
- We do not currently use analytics services.
- We do not currently display advertising.
Who is responsible for your data
OneStopWebTools is operated by Baleeghuddin Shaikh (“we”, “us”), based in Pakistan. You can contact us about privacy at contact@onestopwebtools.com.
Text and files you use in the tools
All 40 tools are implemented in JavaScript that runs in your browser. When you paste text, type numbers or open an image or PDF, the content is read and processed in your device’s memory. The results — such as a compressed image or a merged PDF — are created on your device and downloaded from it. This content is not transmitted to us or to anyone else, and it is discarded when you close or reload the page.
Some tools load additional program code from this website when you first use them (for example the PDF and JavaScript-minifier libraries). Loading code is a request for software, and does not include your content.
You can check this yourself: open your browser’s developer tools, select the Network tab and use a tool. No request containing your text or files will appear.

This value never leaves your browser. Tools do not save your inputs, results, passwords or files in browser storage. See the cookie policy for details.
Server logs
Like almost every website, our hosting provider automatically records technical information when your browser requests a page: your IP address, the date and time, the address requested, the referring page and your browser’s user-agent string. These logs are used to deliver the site, keep it secure and diagnose problems. They are kept only for a limited period set by our hosting provider, after which they are deleted, and they are not used to identify you or combined with other data. Our hosting provider is Hostinger.
Contact messages
The contact form on this site is not connected to a delivery service, so it does not send or store anything. If you email us, your message and email address are handled by our email provider and used only to reply to you. We keep correspondence for up to 12 months unless we need it longer to resolve an issue.
The legal basis for processing messages, where the GDPR or UK GDPR applies, is our legitimate interest in responding to enquiries.
Analytics
We do not currently use any analytics service. If we add one, we will update this policy, and the cookie policy, before it is activated.
Advertising
We do not currently display advertising. If we add advertising, such as Google AdSense, we will update this policy and the cookie policy before ads are shown, including information about advertising cookies and how to opt out.
Third-party software and services
The following open-source software is served from our own website and runs in your browser. It does not contact its authors or any third party:
- pdf-lib (MIT licence) — merging and splitting PDFs.
- PDF.js by Mozilla (Apache 2.0 licence) — rendering PDF pages as images.
- QR Code Generator by Kazuhiko Arase (MIT licence) — creating QR codes.
- Terser (BSD licence) — minifying JavaScript.
- Lucide icons (ISC licence) and the Schibsted Grotesk typeface (SIL Open Font Licence).
The site does not load fonts, scripts or images from third-party servers. Links to external websites are provided for information; their privacy practices are their own.
Children
The site is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or restrict the use of personal information we hold about you, to object to processing, and to complain to a data-protection authority. Because the tools do not send your content to us, the only personal information we are likely to hold is correspondence you have sent. To exercise your rights, contact contact@onestopwebtools.com. If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, you also have the right to complain to your local data protection authority.
Changes to this policy
We will update this policy when the way the site handles information changes — for example if we add analytics or advertising. The date at the top shows when it was last revised.
