Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 22, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how OhoTool ("OhoTool", "we", "us") collects, uses, and safeguards your information when you visit ohotool.com and use our tools and services. By using OhoTool, you agree to the practices described here.

Information we collect

  • Account information — your name and email address when you create an account. Passwords are never stored in plain text; they are kept only as a secure one-way hash.
  • Content you create — the QR codes, barcodes, and links you generate and choose to save to your account, along with their settings.
  • Scan data — for dynamic QR codes, each scan is logged with its timestamp, device/browser type, referring source, and approximate country, so we can show you scan analytics. We do not store full IP addresses.
  • Billing information — processed by our payment provider, Stripe. We receive your subscription status and limited billing metadata, but never your full card number.
  • Usage & analytics data — aggregate, privacy-friendly usage statistics (see "Analytics" below) and basic technical information needed to operate and secure the service.

Free browser tools

Our free utilities (formatters, converters, calculators, generators, and similar) run entirely in your browser. The text, files, and values you enter into them are processed on your device and are not uploaded to or stored on our servers.

How we use your information

  • To provide, maintain, secure, and improve the service.
  • To process subscriptions and payments.
  • To send account-related emails such as verification and password resets.
  • To generate scan analytics for your dynamic QR codes.
  • To detect, prevent, and respond to fraud, abuse, and security issues.

Analytics

We use Vercel Web Analytics and Speed Insights to understand aggregate traffic and page performance. These are privacy-friendly and cookieless — they do not use cross-site tracking cookies and do not collect personally identifiable information. We do not use advertising networks or sell your data.

Cookies

We use a strictly necessary session cookie to keep you signed in. We do not use advertising or third-party cross-site tracking cookies.

Service providers

We share data only with the providers that help us operate OhoTool:

  • Supabase — database hosting for your account and saved content.
  • Vercel — application hosting and privacy-friendly analytics.
  • Stripe — payment processing and subscription management.
  • Resend — delivery of transactional emails.

Each provider processes data only as needed to deliver its service and under its own terms and security commitments.

Data retention

We retain your account information and saved content for as long as your account is active. You can delete individual saved items at any time from your dashboard, and you may request deletion of your entire account by contacting us. Some records may be retained where required for legal, accounting, or security purposes.

International data transfers

Our providers may process and store data in countries other than your own. Where this happens, we rely on those providers' safeguards for lawful international data transfers.

Security

We use industry-standard measures to protect your data, including encrypted connections (HTTPS), hashed passwords, and access controls. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, but we work to protect your information and to promptly address any issues we discover.

Children's privacy

OhoTool is not directed to children under 13 (or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect their personal data. If you believe a child has provided us information, please contact us and we will remove it.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example under the GDPR or CCPA), you may have the right to access, correct, export, restrict, or delete your personal data, and to object to certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, email us at the address below and we will respond within a reasonable time.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, notify you.
