Privacy Policy
CSCTool - Your Data Stays With YouBy using this website, you consent to the terms outlined in this Privacy Policy.
Information We DO NOT Collect
All tools on CSCTool operate entirely client-side (in your browser). This means:
- Photos & Signatures: When you use Passport Photo Maker or Signature Resizer, images are processed locally. They are NEVER uploaded to any server.
- Personal Details: PAN numbers, Shop Act details, Ration List data - we do not log, store, or have access to any of this information.
- PDF & Documents: All document editing, compression, and conversion happen on your device.
We do not directly store, process, or have access to any personal data entered by users. There is no backend database connected to these tools.
Information We MAY Collect (Indirectly)
While we do not directly collect personal data, third-party services such as hosting providers and advertising partners may automatically collect limited technical data including:
- IP Address: Standard server logs for security and analytics.
- Browser Type & Device Information: To optimize site display.
- Usage Data: Pages visited, time spent (through third-party analytics).
This data is collected automatically by third-party services and is not personally identifiable to CSCTool.
Third-Party Services & Automatic Data
To keep CSCTool free, we use third-party services that may collect non-personal information automatically.
Google AdSense
We display advertisements through third-party advertising services (e.g., Google AdSense). Google uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites.
Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visit to CSCTool and/or other sites on the Internet.
Where applicable, we rely on legitimate interests or user consent as the legal basis for processing limited non-personal data through third-party services.
You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. Alternatively, you can opt out of a third-party vendor's use of cookies by visiting Network Advertising Initiative Opt-Out.
Server Logs & IP Address
Like all websites, our hosting provider automatically collects standard server logs. This includes IP addresses, browser type, referring pages, and timestamps. This is standard internet protocol used for security, analytics, and site performance. CSCTool (the operator) does not use these logs to identify individual users.
Cookies & Tracking Technologies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device. CSCTool itself does not set first-party cookies for tracking. However, third-party services we use (Google AdSense) do set cookies.
| Cookie Type | Purpose | Set By |
|---|---|---|
| Advertising Cookies | To show relevant ads and limit ad frequency | Google AdSense |
| Analytics Cookies | To understand site traffic (if enabled) | Google Analytics (optional) |
You can control cookies through your browser settings. You may choose to block or delete cookies, but this may affect ad relevance and site functionality.
Cookie Consent: We use a cookie consent banner to manage your preferences regarding cookies and tracking technologies. You may adjust your cookie settings at any time.
Data Security
Since all tool processing happens on your device, your data never travels to our server. This client-side architecture provides inherent security benefits.
Children's Privacy
CSCTool is intended for use by adults (CSC VLEs and general users). We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information, please contact us for removal.
External Links
Our website contains links to external sites (government portals, social media platforms like Instagram). We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of these third-party sites. Please review their respective privacy policies.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. Continued use of CSCTool constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
