Privacy Policy

1. Overview

RunTools.link ("the Service") is built on a zero-knowledge architecture. We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data with the highest standards of security.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Authentication Data

Your public key is generated locally in your browser and never transmitted to our servers. We only store a cryptographic hash of your public key as your identifier. We do not collect passwords, email addresses, or personal information for account creation.

2.2 Usage Data

We collect minimal usage data necessary to operate the Service:

• Request timestamps for rate limiting
• Tool usage counts for rate limit enforcement
• Error logs for service reliability (without personal identifiers)

2.3 User-Uploaded Content

Files and data you upload through the tools are stored in isolated volumes accessible only with your key. We do not access, analyze, or share your uploaded content.

3. How We Use Your Data

We use the collected data exclusively for:

• Providing and maintaining the Service
• Enforcing rate limits and usage quotas
• Monitoring service health and performance
• Preventing abuse and ensuring security

4. Data Storage and Security

All data is stored using encrypted, isolated volumes. Our zero-knowledge architecture ensures that even we cannot access your encrypted content. We implement industry-standard security measures to protect against unauthorized access, alteration, or destruction of data.

5. Data Retention

• Free plan: Data is ephemeral and automatically deleted after 60 days of inactivity
• Pro plan: Data is retained as long as the subscription is active
• Usage logs: Retained for up to 30 days for operational purposes

6. Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or share your personal data with third parties. We may disclose data only if required by law or to protect the rights and safety of the Service and its users.

7. Cookies and Tracking

RunTools.link does not use cookies for tracking purposes. We do not use third-party analytics or advertising trackers. The Service operates without requiring cookies for authentication.

8. Third-Party Services

Some tools in the Service may interact with third-party APIs (e.g., web search, GitHub). When using these tools, your requests are proxied through our servers. We do not store the content of these requests beyond what is necessary for processing.
