Privacy Policy
Effective October 21, 2026
The short version
- There are no accounts, sign-ups, cookies, analytics, advertising or tracking on this website.
- Our tools run entirely in your browser. Files, text, photos and anything else you check with them never leave your device and are never sent to us.
- We do not sell, rent or share personal information.
Our tools
Every tool on this site, including the metadata inspectors, document scrubber, URL cleaner, header analyzer, hidden text detector, QR checker, timestamp converter, file hash checker, passphrase generator and exposure audit, processes what you give it on your own device. The pages are built to make no network requests at all; you can confirm this in your browser's developer tools, or by going offline after the page loads.
The QR checker can use your camera if you choose to scan with it. The video is read on your device to find a code and is not recorded, saved or sent anywhere. Your browser asks your permission first, and you can withdraw it at any time.
Information saved in your browser
Some pages remember things for your convenience using your browser's local storage, which stays on your device and is never sent to us:
- Your ticks on each security module's checklist.
- Your answers in the Personal Exposure Audit, so you can come back to it.
- A few tool preferences, such as the time zone in the timestamp converter, the hash types in the file hash checker and the passphrase generator's settings.
The “Clear my ticks” and “Clear my answers” buttons remove your checklist ticks and audit answers, and clearing this site's data in your browser settings removes everything. Private or incognito windows do not keep them after you close the window.
Server logs
Like almost every website, our hosting provider's servers automatically record basic technical details when a page is requested: your IP address, the date and time, the page requested, and your browser type. These logs are used only to keep the site running and secure, such as diagnosing errors and blocking abuse. They are kept by our hosting provider in line with its own practices and are not used to identify or profile visitors.
If you email us
If you contact us at info@rondelgroup.com, we receive your email address and whatever you include in your message. We use it only to reply to you, and we do not add you to any mailing list.
Links to other websites
Our Intelligence page and security modules link to other organisations' websites. When you follow those links, that website's own privacy policy applies. Our pages tell your browser not to send the address of the page you came from.
Children
This website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
Changes to this policy
If our practices change, we will update this page and the date at the top.
