In short
This website has no user accounts, sets no cookies and uses no analytics or advertising tools. The tools run in your browser. The only data that leaves your browser is what a tool needs to work, as described below.

Who is responsible
Julian Lau, Weidengarten 1, 53129 Bonn, Germany. Email: jlauapps@gmail.com. See also the imprint.
Hosting (Netlify)
The website is hosted by Netlify, Inc., 101 2nd Street, San Francisco, CA 94105, USA. When you open a page, your browser sends technical data that Netlify needs to deliver it and to keep the service secure: IP address, date and time, the page requested, browser type and the referring page. Netlify processes this data on our behalf and stores it in server logs for a short time. Legal basis: our legitimate interest in a secure, working website (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR). Netlify may process data in the USA; transfers are based on the EU–US Data Privacy Framework and standard contractual clauses. More: Netlify privacy policy.
Free SEO check (Google PageSpeed Insights)
When you start the SEO check, your browser sends the web address you entered directly to the Google PageSpeed Insights API, operated by Google LLC (USA) / Google Ireland Ltd. Google loads that page, tests it and sends the result back to your browser. Google also receives your IP address and browser details as part of the request. We don't receive or store the address or the result.
Only enter public web addresses, and no addresses that contain personal data. Legal basis: your request to run the test (Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR). Google's privacy policy: policies.google.com/privacy.
Open Graph preview
To show the social preview, your browser loads the image from the address you enter, directly from the server where the image is hosted. That server receives your IP address and browser details, as with any image on the web. The HTML you paste is read in your browser only.
Other tools
The SERP preview, CTR calculator, structured data generator, robots.txt tester and llms.txt generator work entirely in your browser. What you type isn't sent anywhere.
Contact by email
If you email us, we use your email address and message only to answer you and delete them when they're no longer needed, unless we have to keep them by law (Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR).
Links to other sites
Links to the App Store, Google tools or other websites only load those sites when you click them. Their own privacy policies apply.
Your rights
You have the right to access, correction, deletion, restriction of processing, data portability and to object (Art. 15–21 GDPR), and the right to complain to a data protection authority, for example the one in North Rhine-Westphalia (LDI NRW). Since we don't store personal data from the tools ourselves, most requests concern Netlify's server logs; just email us.
Changes
If we add new features or services, we'll update this page. Should we ever add analytics, this page will say so before it goes live.
