Privacy Policy

DecodeThis is built with privacy as a core principle. All parsing, decoding, formatting, and validation happens entirely in your browser. Your data never leaves your device.

No Data Collection

DecodeThis does not collect, store, or transmit any data that you paste or upload into the tool. All processing is performed client-side using JavaScript in your browser. No user-submitted content is ever sent to our servers or any third party. You can verify this by inspecting the Network tab in your browser's developer tools while using the application.
