D4N Tools has no accounts, no tracking, no analytics, and no advertising. Most tools run entirely in your browser.
Tools marked Your device process everything locally. What you type, paste, or upload never leaves your browser.
Tools marked 3rd-party API send only your query to the service the tool uses. D4N Tools does not store or log it. Services used:
Each service processes the request under its own privacy policy.
Tools marked D4N cloud store the minimum needed to work. Currently that is Straw Poll: the poll question, options, and vote counts are stored on Cloudflare so others can vote. Nothing is tied to your identity.
The BUG and SUGGESTION buttons send a report containing only what you see before submitting: your description, optional steps, the page path and title, viewport size, coarse browser name, theme, and an optional screenshot that you can redact and must approve first. No name, email, or IP address is stored with the report.
Reports are checked by Cloudflare Turnstile to block bots, stored on Cloudflare, and deleted automatically after 90 days.
The site is served by Cloudflare, which processes IP addresses and request metadata to deliver pages and block abuse. D4N Tools does not use this for tracking.
Everything stored in your browser is functional and first party. You can clear it at any time via your browser's site data settings.

Cloudflare Turnstile may set its own security cookie while verifying a feedback submission. There are no tracking, analytics, or advertising cookies.
Why there is no cookie banner: UK law (PECR) requires consent only for storage that is not strictly necessary for a service you asked for. Every item above exists solely to make a feature you used work, and Turnstile is security, so no consent banner is required.
Changes to this policy will be posted here with an updated date. Questions or concerns? Use the SUGGESTION button at the top of any page.
