Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains what information SixtyTools does and does not collect, how advertising and cookies work, and the rights you have. In short: the tools process your input in your browser, and we do not collect personal data ourselves.
Overview
SixtyTools is a static, browser-based platform. Every calculation and conversion runs locally on your device. We do not operate user accounts, and we do not receive, store, or transmit the values you enter into any tool. This policy describes the limited ways in which data is involved when you visit the site, principally through advertising, and explains the choices available to you.
By using SixtyTools, you agree to the practices described here. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the site. This policy works alongside our Terms of Service and Cookie Policy.
Data we collect
We do not ask for or collect personal information such as your name, email address, or location through the tools themselves. There are no sign-up forms, and no tool transmits your input to us. The information you type, paste, or upload into a tool stays in your browser and is never sent to our servers.
Some tools save preferences or content locally on your device using your browser's storage — for example, the notepad remembers your text, and the site remembers your theme and recently used tools. This information is stored only on your device, is not visible to us, and can be cleared at any time through your browser settings.
Cookies
The tools do not require cookies to function. Cookies on this site are associated with advertising, described below. You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings and through the consent choice shown on your first visit. For a full breakdown of the categories of cookies and how to manage them, see our Cookie Policy.
Analytics
We keep analytics minimal. Where any aggregate usage measurement is used, it is limited to understanding which tools are popular so we can prioritise improvements, and it does not identify you personally. We do not sell analytics data, and we do not combine it with advertising to build a profile of you. If analytics are enabled, the associated cookies are covered by your consent choice.
Advertising and Google AdSense
SixtyTools uses Google AdSense to display advertising, which keeps the platform free. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.
Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and other sites on the internet. You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting your Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising through industry pages such as About Ads and Your Online Choices.
How Google uses data
When you use our site, Google may collect and process data according to its own policies. For information on how Google uses data from sites that use its services, see Google's "How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services" page. Google acts as an independent controller of the data it collects through advertising, and its handling of that data is governed by Google's own privacy policy rather than this one.
Cloudflare
The platform is served through Cloudflare, which provides content delivery and security. Cloudflare may process limited technical information — such as IP addresses and request metadata — to deliver pages efficiently and to protect the site against abuse and attacks. This processing is standard for websites that use a content delivery network, is limited to operating and securing the service, and is governed by Cloudflare's own privacy commitments.
Browser processing
The defining characteristic of SixtyTools is that the tools run in your browser. When you enter data into a converter or calculator, the computation happens on your own device. This means the substance of what you do on the platform — the numbers, text, and files — never leaves your control. This is a deliberate architectural choice that underpins our privacy-first approach, described further on our About page.
Third-party services
Aside from advertising and content delivery, the platform relies on very few third parties. The tools themselves make no external calls: even currency conversion uses a built-in reference rate table that runs on your device, so no tool sends your input anywhere. Any third-party service we do use is limited to operating the site — principally advertising and content delivery — and each operates under its own privacy policy.
Email communication
If you contact us by email at support@sixtytools.com, we will receive the information you choose to include in your message. We use that information solely to respond to your enquiry and to improve the platform where you have reported a problem. We do not add you to marketing lists, and we do not share your correspondence with third parties except where necessary to resolve your request or as required by law.
Your rights
Because the site does not collect or hold personal data itself, there is generally nothing on our side to access, correct, or delete. Where you have contacted us by email, you may ask us to delete that correspondence. For data collected by advertising partners such as Google, please use the controls and opt-outs referenced above, and refer to those providers' privacy policies to exercise your rights over the data they hold.
Depending on where you live, you may have specific legal rights over your personal data, including rights of access, correction, deletion, and objection. We will honour valid requests to the extent they apply to data we actually hold. To make a request, email us at support@sixtytools.com.
Data retention
We do not retain personal data from tool use because we never collect it. Locally stored preferences remain on your device until you clear them. Email correspondence is retained only for as long as needed to handle your enquiry and to keep a reasonable record, after which it is deleted. Data held by advertising and infrastructure partners is retained according to their own policies.
International visitors
SixtyTools is available worldwide. Because the tools process data in your browser, your tool input does not cross borders to us. Where third parties such as advertising and content-delivery providers process limited technical data, that processing may occur in other countries under those providers' own safeguards. If you are visiting from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or another region with specific privacy laws, the consent mechanism and opt-outs described here are available to you.
Children's privacy
SixtyTools is a general-audience platform and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Because the tools collect no personal data, children can use them without providing any information about themselves.
Updates to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in the platform, in the third-party services we use, or in legal requirements. When we make material changes, we will update the date shown at the foot of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically so you remain informed about how the platform handles data.
