Overview
The Big Bin Toolbox ("we", "us", or "our") operates thebigb.in and its collection of free online tools (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains what information is collected when you use the Service, how it is used, and the choices you have.
We built these tools to be fast and privacy-respecting. The tools themselves run entirely in your browser — the text, numbers, and files you enter into a tool are processed locally on your device and are not transmitted to or stored on our servers.
Information We Collect
Information you enter into tools
Input you provide to a tool (for example, text you paste into the word counter or values you type into a calculator) is processed client-side in your browser. We do not receive, log, or store this content.
Local storage
Some tools save preferences (such as your chosen language or recent settings) in your browser's local storage so the tool works better on your next visit. This data stays on your device and can be cleared at any time through your browser settings.
Automatically collected information
Like most websites, our hosting infrastructure and third-party services may automatically collect standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, referring pages, and pages visited. This is used for security, aggregate analytics, and to operate the Service.
