Privacy at a glance
TikTok Utils is designed to process information in your browser wherever practical. You do not need to create an account, and we do not operate a database of tool inputs or generated results.
The tools do not automatically load TikTok content. TikTok receives information only when you load the optional player preview, deliberately follow a TikTok link, or use generated embed code on another website. Our hosting provider processes ordinary connection and security information when you visit TikTok Utils.
Who is responsible for your information?
WebUtilTools is the controller responsible for the personal information described in this policy. Privacy questions and data-rights requests can be sent to webutiltools@gmail.com.
Information we process
Tool inputs and results
You may choose videos or images and enter TikTok URLs, captions, colours, layout choices, and other tool settings. These values and generated results are normally held in temporary browser memory while you navigate within the current tab. They are cleared by a full refresh or when the tab is closed and are not saved to a TikTok Utils account or database.
Links you choose to open
Some results include links to TikTok or other websites. When you choose to open one, the destination may receive ordinary request information such as your IP address, browser details, and referring page. The destination's own privacy terms then apply.
Site preferences
The site stores your light or dark theme preference in local browser storage. It is not used for advertising or cross-site tracking.
Contact information
If you email us, we receive your email address, message, attachments, and associated email metadata. We use that information to respond, investigate reports, maintain appropriate records, and protect the site or legal rights where necessary.
Connection and security information
When you request a page, our hosting and security providers may process your IP address, browser and device information, requested URL, referring page, timestamps, and diagnostic or security events. This is used to deliver the site, prevent abuse, diagnose faults, and maintain availability and security.
Third-party services
TikTok
TikTok Utils does not fetch TikTok content automatically. If you load the optional player preview, open a TikTok source link, or publish and load generated embed code elsewhere, TikTok may process the destination, your IP address, browser information, referring page, cookies, and similar technologies under its own privacy terms.
Cloudflare
TikTok Utils uses Cloudflare for site delivery, hosting, performance, and security. Cloudflare may process connection, request, and security information on our behalf and may process information in countries outside your own.
Contact email is provided through Gmail, a Google service. Google may process message content and metadata as the email provider when you contact us.
Links to other websites, including other Utils sites, take you to services with their own privacy practices. Their policies apply after you follow those links.
Advertising and analytics
TikTok Utils does not currently use advertising cookies or an analytics service. We may introduce advertising, including Google AdSense, in the future.
Before advertising technology is enabled, this policy and the Cookie Policy will be updated to identify the services and purposes involved. Where required, non-essential technology will be withheld until you make a choice through an appropriate consent platform.
Why we process information
Where UK or European data-protection law applies, we rely on the following legal bases as appropriate:
- Legitimate interests in operating, securing, maintaining, and improving a useful website, and responding to ordinary correspondence.
- Consent where the law requires a choice before non-essential cookies or similar technology is used. You may withdraw consent at any time.
- Legal obligations where processing is needed to comply with applicable law or respond to a valid legal request.
- Contractual steps when you ask us to consider or respond to a relevant business arrangement.
How information is shared
We do not sell personal information. Information may be available to the service providers described above where needed to operate the site, provide email, or deliver a feature you choose to use.
We may also disclose information where reasonably necessary to comply with law, enforce applicable terms, investigate abuse, protect users or the public, or establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
How long information is kept
Temporary tool state: Remains in browser memory while you navigate within the current tab and is cleared by a full refresh or when the tab is closed.
Site preferences: Your theme preference remains in local storage until you change it or clear site data.
Hosting and security: Records are retained only for periods appropriate to delivery, diagnostics, security, abuse prevention, and legal needs, subject to provider settings and applicable law.
Emails: Retained for as long as reasonably necessary to answer the enquiry, maintain relevant records, resolve disputes, or meet legal obligations.
International processing
Cloudflare, Google (as the email provider), and their infrastructure may process information in countries outside the United Kingdom or your country of residence. Where we are responsible for a restricted international transfer, we rely on an applicable adequacy decision, approved contractual safeguards, or another lawful transfer mechanism.
Your data-protection rights
Depending on where you live and the circumstances, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, portability, or objection, and to withdraw consent. These rights are not absolute and may be subject to legal exceptions.
To make a request, email webutiltools@gmail.com. We may need enough information to understand and verify the request. You also have the right to complain to your local data-protection authority. In the United Kingdom, this is the Information Commissioner's Office.
Children's privacy
TikTok Utils is a general-audience service and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly request or build profiles using personal information from children. If you believe a child has sent personal information to us by email, please contact us so it can be reviewed and deleted where appropriate.
Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures intended to protect the service and the limited information we handle. No internet or email system can be guaranteed completely secure, so please do not send passwords, authentication codes, private account links, or other sensitive information by email or through tool inputs.
Changes to this policy
This policy will be updated when the site's processing changes, including before advertising or analytics technology is introduced. The effective date at the top of this page will show when the latest version took effect. Material changes may also be highlighted elsewhere on the site where appropriate.
