The short version: we don't collect your data. Not because we're lazy — because we built TidyText so it never needs to.
None. TidyText does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data to any server we operate.
TidyText is a browser-based tool. Everything happens locally in your browser tab. When you improve or translate text, your content is sent directly from your browser to the AI provider you've chosen (Google, OpenAI, Anthropic, or another compatible provider). It never passes through our servers.
Your API key is stored exclusively in your browser's localStorage. It lives on your device. We never see it, never touch it, never transmit it.
You can delete it at any time by clearing your browser's local storage, or by removing it from TidyText's settings panel.
When you use TidyText, your text is processed by the AI provider you connect. Each provider has its own privacy policy and data practices that apply to what you send:
We encourage you to review the privacy policy of your chosen provider. Their API terms (not their consumer product terms) typically have stronger data protections — your input is generally not used for model training via the API.
TidyText uses no cookies. No tracking scripts. No analytics. No advertising pixels. If you want the complete picture, see our Cookie Policy.
If you use the contact form, your name, email address, and message are submitted to us via a Cloudflare Worker and sent to our inbox through Resend. This data is used only to respond to your enquiry and is not stored beyond what our email provider retains.
TidyText has no user accounts. There is nothing to delete, nothing to export, nothing to request. Your browser is your account — and it's entirely yours.
If anything meaningful changes about how TidyText works that affects privacy, we'll update this page and the date at the top. We're not in the business of quietly burying changes.
