Privacy Policy

Last updated: 3/24/2026

Introduction

Welcome to ShrinkJSON ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclosure, and safeguard your information when you visit our website and use our tools.

By accessing specific parts of our Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you disagree with any part of the terms, then you may not access the Service.

Client-Side Processing

Our core philosophy is privacy by design. The tools provided on ShrinkJSON (such as JSON Minifier, Formatter, Validator, etc.) operate entirely on your client-side browser.

We do NOT transfer your JSON data or file content to our servers.

All processing happens locally on your device. This means your sensitive data never leaves your computer when using our conversion tools.

Information Collection

Since we do not process your data on our backend, we do not store the content you process. However, we may collect standard metadata and usage statistics to improve our service, including:

  • Browser type and version
  • Operating system
  • Time and date of your visit
  • Referring website addresses
  • Page views and navigation paths

Cookies and Local Storage

We may use cookies and local storage to enhance your experience, such as saving your theme preference (light/dark mode) or tool settings locally on your device.

You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our Service.

Third-Party Services & Advertising

We operate as a free service and may display third-party advertisements to support our operations. These advertising partners may use cookies and similar technologies to gather information about your activities on this and other websites to provide you with advertising based on your browsing activities and interests.

We generally use standard analytics tools (like Google Analytics or similar privacy-focused alternatives) to understand website traffic. These services collect data anonymously and do not identify individual users.

Changes to This Policy

We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
