1. Introduction

FormatWiz ("we", "our", "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclosure, and safeguard your information when you visit our website formatwiz.com.

Most of our tools operate client-side, meaning your files are processed directly in your browser and are never uploaded to our servers.

2. Data We Collect

We collect minimal data to provide our services:

  • Usage Data: We may collect anonymous information about how you access and use the Service (e.g., page views, browser type).
  • Files: For client-side tools, we DO NOT collect or store your files. For server-side tools (if any), files are deleted immediately after processing.
  • Cookies: We use cookies to enhance your experience and analyze traffic.

3. Use of Data

We use the collected data to:

  • Provide and maintain our Service.
  • Monitor the usage of our Service.
  • Detect, prevent, and address technical issues.

4. Data Security

We implement appropriate security measures to protect your personal information. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.

5. Third-Party Services

We may use third-party services like Google Analytics and Google AdSense which may collect data consistent with their own privacy policies. Marketing cookies and personalized ads load only if you accept them in the cookie banner.

6. Advertising and Cookies

FormatWiz is free to use and is funded by advertising. We work with Google AdSense to display ads on this site, which involves the following:

  • Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on FormatWiz.
  • Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to FormatWiz and other sites on the internet.
  • You can opt out of personalised advertising at any time through Google Ads Settings, or opt out of third-party advertising cookies at aboutads.info.
  • Other vendors and ad networks may also serve ads on this site and may use their own cookies, subject to their own privacy policies.

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, ads remain non-personalised until you accept advertising cookies in our consent banner. You can change your choice at any time by clearing this site's data in your browser. California residents may opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information in the same way.
