All Tools

Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 2026

1. Introduction & The Short Version

At Doova Tools (doovatools.com), your privacy is our top priority. We do not collect, sell, or mine your personal data. Most of our tools (PDF processing, image compression, JSON formatting, password generation) operate 100% client-side in your web browser — your files never leave your device.

2. How Our Tools Process Data

Depending on the utility you are using, processing occurs in one of two ways:

  • Browser-Native Tools: For text, code, image, math, and finance tools, all calculations, transformations, and file optimizations happen inside your browser using JavaScript, WebAssembly, and the Web Crypto API. No files or inputs are sent to any remote server.
  • Video & Social Media Downloaders: When using our YouTube downloader utilities, your requested public media URL is briefly processed by secure temporary fetch endpoints to extract direct download links. We do not store, log, or cache downloaded video or audio files on our servers.

3. Cookies & Local Storage

We use a single browser `localStorage` key to store your visual theme preference (light or dark mode). We do not use tracking cookies for our own internal analytics.

4. Google AdSense & Advertising Cookies

We use Google AdSense to display third-party advertisements on Doova Tools. Google and its third-party advertising vendors use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website or other websites:

  • Google's use of advertising cookies (such as the DoubleClick DART cookie) enables it and its partners to serve personalized advertisements to our users based on their visits to Doova Tools and/or other websites on the Internet.
  • You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ad Settings or by visiting www.aboutads.info.
  • For more information on how Google collects and uses data from advertising partners, please review Google's policy page: How Google uses cookies in advertising.

5. CCPA/CPRA Privacy Notice (California Residents)

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA), California residents have the right to know what personal information is collected, request deletion of personal information, and opt out of the sale or sharing of personal data. Doova Tools does not sell or share your personal information.

6. GDPR Privacy Notice (European Economic Area & UK Residents)

If you reside in the EEA or UK, you have data protection rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including the right to access, rectify, or erase any personal data, restrict processing, and data portability. Because Doova Tools does not require user registration or store personal account files, we retain no personal data to process.

7. Children's Privacy (COPPA)

Doova Tools is a general audience educational and productivity service not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

8. Third-Party Services

Our PDF tools link to A2Z PDF, which maintains its own privacy policy and also processes PDF files 100% client-side in the browser.
