Privacy Policy
Last updated: January 12, 2026
Our Commitment to Privacy
At PrestoSecure, we believe that security tools shouldn't compromise your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our website and tools. The short version: we collect as little data as possible, and most of our tools run entirely in your browser.
Information We Don't Collect
We want to be clear about what we don't do:
- We don't require account creation or registration
- We don't collect or store passwords you check or generate
- We don't log email addresses used in breach lookups
- We don't track which URLs you analyze for phishing
- We don't store SSL check or DNS lookup queries
- We don't sell any data to third parties
- We don't use tracking cookies for advertising purposes
How Our Tools Handle Data
Client-Side Tools (Browser Only)
The following tools run entirely in your web browser. Your data never leaves your device:
- Password Strength Checker: Your password is analyzed using JavaScript in your browser. It is never transmitted to our servers.
- Password Generator: Passwords are generated using your browser's cryptographic APIs. Generated passwords exist only in your browser.
- Phishing URL Detector: URL analysis happens entirely in your browser using heuristic rules.
- Privacy Checkup: All browser privacy checks run locally. No information about your browser is sent to us.
Server-Side Tools
The following tools require server processing to function:
- Email Breach Lookup: Your email address is sent to our server, which queries the Have I Been Pwned API. We do not log or store email addresses. The query is processed and immediately discarded.
- SSL/HTTPS Checker: The domain you enter is used to connect to that website and inspect its SSL certificate. We do not log which domains you check.
- DNS Lookup: The domain you enter is used to query DNS servers. We do not log DNS queries.
Analytics
We may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand how our website is used. This helps us improve our tools and user experience. Any analytics we use:
- Do not track individual users
- Do not collect personal information
- Do not use cookies for tracking
- Aggregate data only (page views, general usage patterns)
Advertising
We may display advertisements through Google AdSense to support the free operation of this website. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings.
Cookies
Our website uses minimal cookies:
- Essential cookies: Required for the website to function (e.g., session management).
- Advertising cookies: If ads are displayed, Google AdSense may set cookies. You can manage these in your browser settings.
We do not use cookies to track your activity across our tools or to collect personal information.
Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services:
- Have I Been Pwned: For email breach lookups. See their privacy policy.
- Vercel: For website hosting. See their privacy policy.
- Google AdSense: For advertising (if applicable). See Google's privacy policy.
Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect any data that passes through our servers:
- All connections use HTTPS encryption
- We don't store sensitive data (passwords, emails checked, etc.)
- Server-side processing is stateless - data is not persisted
Children's Privacy
Our services are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us.
Your Rights
Since we don't collect personal data, there's typically nothing for us to provide, correct, or delete. However, if you have any privacy concerns, please contact us.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
