Privacy Policy — Freekito

1 Introduction

Welcome to Freekito ("we," "us," or "our"). Freekito is a free online tools platform operated from Cairo, Egypt. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and protect information when you visit freekito.com and use any of our tools.

By using freekito.com, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the site.

We are committed to complying with applicable privacy laws including Egypt's Personal Data Protection Law (PDPL) No. 151 of 2020, and where applicable, the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) for users located in the European Economic Area.

2 Information We Collect

2.1 Information collected automatically through your browser

When you visit freekito.com, your browser automatically sends certain information to our servers. We may collect:

IP address
Browser type and version
Operating system
Referring URL (the page you came from)
Pages visited on freekito.com and time spent on each page
Date and time of your visit
Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)

This information is collected passively through standard web server logs and analytics tools. It does not require you to submit any form or create an account.

2.2 Information you provide voluntarily

Freekito does not require you to create an account or submit personal information to use any of our tools. However, if we introduce contact forms, feedback forms, or newsletter subscriptions in the future, we will update this policy accordingly and request only the minimum information necessary.

2.3 Tool inputs

Many of Freekito's tools (such as the JWT Token Decoder, Number System Converter, and JSON to CSV Converter) process data entirely within your browser. This means the content you paste or type into these tools is never transmitted to our servers. We do not see, store, or log your tool inputs.

For tools that require server-side processing (such as the Open Graph Checker, which fetches external URLs to extract metadata), only the URL you submit is temporarily processed on our server. This URL is not stored or linked to your identity.

3 How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

To operate and maintain the freekito.com website
To monitor and analyze usage patterns and improve tool performance
To diagnose technical problems and ensure website security
To comply with legal obligations
To protect the rights, property, and safety of Freekito and its users

We do not use your information for automated decision-making or profiling.

4 Cookies and Tracking Technologies

4.1 What we use

Freekito may use the following technologies:

Session cookies — temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser, used to maintain basic site functionality
Analytics cookies — used to understand how visitors use the site (see section 4.2)
Preference cookies — used to remember display preferences if applicable

4.2 Analytics

We may use a third-party analytics service such as Google Analytics to collect aggregated, anonymized information about how visitors use freekito.com. This data helps us understand which tools are most used and how to improve the site. Google Analytics may set its own cookies. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

4.3 Your cookie choices

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the site. Most modern browsers allow you to:

View cookies stored on your device
Delete individual or all cookies
Block cookies from specific or all websites
Set preferences for first-party versus third-party cookies

5 Advertising

5.1 Current status

As of the date of this policy, freekito.com does not display advertisements.

5.2 Future advertising

We intend to introduce advertising in the future, likely through Google AdSense or a similar advertising network. When advertising is introduced, we will update this privacy policy in advance to disclose:

Which advertising networks we use
What data those networks may collect
What cookies or tracking pixels they may place
How you can opt out of interest-based advertising

When advertising is active, third-party advertising partners may use cookies, web beacons, and similar technologies to collect information about your browsing activity on freekito.com and other websites in order to serve you relevant advertisements. This data collection is governed by the privacy policies of those third-party advertising networks, not by this policy.

You will be able to opt out of interest-based advertising through:

The Google Ads Settings page
The Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out tool
Your browser's privacy settings

6 Data Sharing and Third Parties

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to any third party.

We may share information with third parties only in the following limited circumstances:

Service providers — companies that assist us in operating the website (such as hosting providers or analytics services), who are contractually obligated to keep your information confidential and use it only for the services they provide to us
Legal requirements — when required by law, court order, or governmental authority, or when we believe disclosure is necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of Freekito, our users, or the public
Business transfers — in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or part of our assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you before your information becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

We currently use the following third-party services:

Hosting infrastructure (server and CDN provider)
Google Analytics (anonymized usage analytics)

We will update this list as additional services are introduced.

7 Data Retention

We retain server log data, including IP addresses and page visit records, for a maximum of 90 days, after which it is automatically deleted or anonymized. We do not retain tool inputs as they are processed in your browser and never transmitted to our servers (except as noted in Section 2.3 for server-side tools, where only the submitted URL is processed and not stored).

If we introduce any data collection features in the future (such as user accounts or contact forms), we will specify the retention period for that data at the time of collection.

8 Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect the information we process against unauthorized access, loss, destruction, or alteration. These measures include:

HTTPS encryption on all pages of freekito.com (TLS 1.2 or higher)
Server access controls limiting who can access server logs
Keeping server software and dependencies up to date
Using reputable hosting and infrastructure providers with their own security certifications

No method of transmission over the internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we take commercially reasonable steps to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify the relevant supervisory authority and affected users as required by applicable law.

9 Children's Privacy

Freekito is a general-purpose tools website intended for users of all ages. However, it is not specifically directed at children under the age of 13 (or under 16 in the European Economic Area).

We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Since Freekito does not require account registration or any form submission to use our tools, we do not collect personal information from any user regardless of age. If we become aware that a child has submitted personal information to us through a contact or feedback form, we will delete that information promptly.

If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at the email address provided in Section 12 and we will take steps to delete it.
