Privacy

Short version: your text stays in your browser.

Your text

Your text is processed in your browser. Our tools never upload it. We don't collect, store or see anything you type or paste. A file you open in Compare JSON is read by your browser on your device and is never uploaded.

The tools are plain web pages with no server code of their own: the comparing and counting happen in your browser, and the pages tell your browser to block background connections to any other website.

History (optional)

Text Compare can remember your recent comparisons if you switch History on. It's off until you do. Saved comparisons stay in this browser's storage on this device and are never sent to us. Switching History off deletes them. Your light or dark theme choice and your tool settings (such as precision, view and reading speeds) are remembered the same way. Your text is never part of them. When you switch between Text, Lists and JSON in Compare, your two texts come with you inside this browser tab and are deleted as soon as the next page opens. They never leave your device.

Visitor statistics

We count page visits with a privacy-friendly statistics service from our web host. It records the address of each page viewed, the site you came from, your approximate location (country and city), and your browser, operating system and device type. It tells visits apart with an anonymous code that is discarded after 24 hours, doesn't use cookies and never receives what you type. Like any website, our host also receives your IP address when it delivers a page.
