Privacy Policy
This policy explains what information DevDock processes, what stays on your device, and how we use the site.
Last updated: September 29, 2026
1. Who we are
DevDock (“we”, “us”, or “our”) operates https://getdevdock.com (the “Site”). We provide free browser-based developer and digital utility tools.
Contact: [email protected]
2. Our privacy model
DevDock tools are designed to run in your browser. When you paste text, upload a file into a tool interface, or generate output, that processing is intended to happen on your device. We do not require an account to use the tools, and we do not operate tool features by sending your tool input to DevDock servers for computation.
That said, visiting any website involves some technical data exchange with hosting and delivery infrastructure. This policy describes that clearly.
3. Information we may process
3.1 Information you provide voluntarily
If you email us or use a contact method we publish, we receive the information you include (such as your email address and message content) so we can respond.
3.2 Technical and usage data
Like most websites, our hosting provider and related infrastructure may automatically process limited technical data when you visit the Site, such as:
- IP address
- Browser type and version
- Device and operating system information
- Pages requested, timestamps, and referral URLs
- Approximate location derived from IP (city/region level)
This data is used for security, reliability, abuse prevention, and to understand aggregate traffic patterns.
3.3 Tool input content
Content you enter into tools (for example JSON, tokens, passwords you generate, or text you encode) is processed locally in your browser for the tool’s function. We ask that you avoid pasting highly sensitive secrets into any website unless you understand and accept the risk of using a browser-based utility.
5. How we use information
We use information to:
- Operate, maintain, and improve DevDock
- Secure the Site and investigate abuse
- Understand which tools and pages are useful
- Respond to messages you send us
- Display relevant advertisements or affiliate content where shown
- Comply with legal obligations
6. Sharing of information
We may share information with:
- Service providers that help us host, deliver, secure, or analyze the Site
- Advertising and affiliate partners when ads or offers are displayed on the Site
- Authorities when required by law or to protect rights, safety, and security
We do not sell your tool input content. We also do not create user accounts that store your tool history on DevDock servers.
7. International visitors
DevDock is operated for a global audience with English-language content. If you access the Site from outside the country where our infrastructure or partners process data, your information may be processed in other jurisdictions that may have different data protection laws.
8. Data retention
Contact emails are retained as long as needed to respond and keep a reasonable business record. Technical logs are retained according to our hosting and security practices, typically for a limited period unless needed longer for security or legal reasons. Theme preferences stored locally remain on your device until you clear site data.
9. Children’s privacy
DevDock is intended for a general audience of technical professionals and is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
10. Your choices
- Clear cookies and site data in your browser at any time
- Use browser controls to block or limit third-party cookies
- Contact us to ask questions about this policy at [email protected]
11. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page will change when we do. Continued use of the Site after updates means you accept the revised policy.
