Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 10, 2026

Free Text Refiner ("we", "our", "the site") provides free, browser-based text cleaning and formatting tools at freetextrefiner.com. This Privacy Policy explains what happens — and, more importantly, what does not happen — to the text and data you interact with on this site.

The text you paste never leaves your browser

Every tool on this site processes text entirely on your own device using JavaScript running in your browser tab. When you paste text, upload a PDF, or upload an image for OCR, that content is never transmitted to our servers or any third party. There is no backend that receives, logs, or stores the content you clean or format. Closing the tab or refreshing the page permanently discards it, since nothing was ever sent anywhere to begin with.

Information we do collect

We may use privacy-respecting analytics (such as aggregate page-view counts) to understand which tools are useful and to improve the site. This can include standard technical information like your browser type, approximate location (city/country level), device type, and referring page. This data is aggregated and is not used to identify you personally, and it never includes the text you process with our tools.

Cookies and local storage

We use your browser's local storage to remember small preferences, such as your chosen theme (light or dark mode) and language. This data stays on your device and is not transmitted to us. We may also use essential cookies required for the site to function, and, where applicable, analytics cookies as described above.

Third-party services

This site may display advertising or use third-party analytics providers to help keep the tools free. These providers may set their own cookies or collect technical data in accordance with their own privacy policies. We do not share the text content you process on this site with any advertising or analytics provider, because that content never reaches our infrastructure in the first place.

Children's privacy

Free Text Refiner is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the site or applicable law. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page indicates when it was last revised. Continued use of the site after a change means you accept the updated policy.
