Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 3, 2026

1. Overview

UtilZilla ("we", "us", "our") operates www.utilzilla.com (the "Site"), a collection of free browser-based utility tools. This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you use the Site, how it is used, and the choices you have. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described here.

2. Local Processing and Public-Data Requests

Most file and text tools process your inputs locally. Documents, images, audio, video and OCR inputs are not uploaded to our servers. Five workflow tools — Catalog Check, Ledger Match, Contract Review, Indexability Check and Meeting Overlap Planner — send the inputs you submit over HTTPS to UtilZilla on Vercel when you run the tool. The workflow requests are processed transiently; we do not store their inputs in an application database or intentionally log them. Vercel may retain hosting and request metadata. Do not submit secrets, payment-card data or other sensitive information to these workflows. OCR downloads language models from tessdata.projectnaptha.com when you request recognition; your image stays on your device. Live-data tools make the requests described below only when you press Load data.

The UtilZilla plugin and connected-assistant tools process supplied inputs on the same Vercel backend, including JSON comparison, table conversion and English readability analysis. Their website versions can run locally; using them through MCP sends the selected data to our server. File tools download only user-authorized ChatGPT text attachments from files.oaiusercontent.com. Inputs and attachment contents are processed transiently without application database storage or intentional input logging. Hosting metadata may be retained. Catalogue search sends the search terms and filters you provide. Browser-only utilities are linked rather than executed remotely. Avoid submitting secrets or payment-card data.

Currency conversion sends currency codes to Frankfurter; your amount stays local. DNS lookup sends the domain and record type to Cloudflare. Weather sends coordinates in a URL to UtilZilla on Vercel and forwards rounded coordinates to MET Norway; forecast responses are cached. Providers and hosting infrastructure receive normal request metadata, including IP addresses, and may keep service logs. Avoid entering sensitive private domains or locations.

3. Information We Collect Automatically

Like most websites, we automatically collect limited technical information through analytics tools, including:

  • Pages visited, time spent, and general navigation patterns
  • Approximate location (country/region), device type, and browser type
  • Referring website or search engine

This is collected via privacy-respecting analytics (Vercel Analytics and Vercel Speed Insights) and is used only in aggregate to understand which tools are useful and to improve site performance. It is not linked to your identity.

4. Cookies and Advertising

UtilZilla displays advertisements served by Google AdSense to support the free tools on this Site. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies (including the DoubleClick DART cookie) 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 based on your visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.

You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits — you can learn more at How Google uses information from sites that use our services. You can also disable cookies entirely through your browser settings, though this may affect site functionality.

5. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services, each with their own privacy policies:

6. Children's Privacy

UtilZilla does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. The Site is intended for general audiences using everyday productivity tools.

7. Your Choices

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Opting out of personalized ads will not stop ads from appearing, but they may be less relevant to you.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of the Site after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
