Privacy Policy

Last updated: May 10, 2026

Overview

This policy explains how Access Free Tools handles information when you use our calculators, converters, blog guides, advertising, affiliate links, and other site features. It is written for the public website at accessfreetools.com.

Browser-first tools

Current tools run in your browser. Calculator history, random number results, and similar temporary tool outputs stay in the current browser tab while you use the page and are not sent to a server by these tools.

Information we may collect

We do not currently offer user accounts or payment checkout on Access Free Tools. We may receive basic technical information through hosting, security, browser requests, and privacy-aware first-party analytics, such as browser type, device type, pages visited, tool actions, referring pages, dates, and approximate technical request details. This helps keep the site working, secure, and useful.

If you use the contact form, we receive the name, email address, topic, and message you choose to submit. The form sends that message to our site email so we can read it and reply. Do not submit passwords, bank details, medical records, or other sensitive personal information.

Cookies and local storage

The color look you choose is saved in your browser's local storage so the site can remember your preferred style on future visits. You can clear it by clearing site data in your browser.

We also use local storage to remember an anonymous visitor ID and session ID for simple first-party analytics. This helps us see which tools are actually used, how many visitors are new or returning, and which pages need improvement. We do not save raw IP addresses in the analytics event log; technical request details are hashed or summarized before storage.

If we add advertising, affiliate tracking, third-party analytics, or consent tools, those services may use cookies, web beacons, local storage, IP addresses, device identifiers, or similar technologies. You can usually control cookies in your browser settings, but some site features may work less smoothly if cookies or local storage are disabled.

First-party analytics

Access Free Tools may collect simple first-party analytics events, such as page views and tool actions like calculate, convert, generate, copy, or check. These events are used to understand which tools are useful, spot broken pages, improve internal links, and decide what to build next. We filter obvious bots and do not use this system to sell personal profiles.

Clipboard actions

Some tools include copy buttons. These only write the result you choose to your device clipboard after you press the copy button.

Advertising and Google AdSense

We may use Google AdSense or other advertising services to show ads on Access Free Tools. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables Google and its partners to serve ads based on visits to this site and other sites on the Internet.

You can learn how Google uses data on partner sites at How Google uses data when you use our partners' sites or apps . You can opt out of personalized advertising through Google Ads Settings or learn about other industry opt-out choices at aboutads.info.

EEA, UK, and Switzerland consent

Before serving Google ads to users in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we should use a Google-certified Consent Management Platform where required. That consent flow should explain the relevant ad technology providers and ask for consent for cookies, local storage, and personal data use where the law and Google's EU user consent policy require it.

Affiliate links

Some future blog guides or product callouts may include affiliate links to third-party stores, such as print-on-demand products related to a tool. If you click an affiliate link and buy something, Access Free Tools may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Affiliate partners may use their own cookies or tracking links and handle your information under their own privacy policies.

Third-party links and services

Our pages may link to third-party websites, ad networks, affiliate stores, documentation, source references, or product pages. We do not control those third-party services, and their privacy practices may be different from ours.

Children's privacy

Access Free Tools is not designed to knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, contact us so we can review and remove it where appropriate.

Your choices

You can clear local storage and cookies in your browser, use the advertising opt-out links above, avoid clicking affiliate links, or contact us with privacy questions. If a future form asks for personal information, submit only what is needed for that request.

Contact

For privacy questions, use the Contact page or email contact@accessfreetools.com. This policy should be reviewed before new analytics, advertising, affiliate, account, or form features go live.
