OFFICIAL POLICY GDPR & CCPA READY GOOGLE ADSENSE COMPLIANT

Privacy Policy

Effective Date: January 1, 2026 • Last Updated: September 2026 • Entity: XESTUS (xestus.in)

1. Introduction & Commitment

At XESTUS (accessible at https://xestus.in), the privacy and data security of our visitors, developers, and clients are of paramount importance. This Privacy Policy document outlines the types of information that is collected and recorded by XESTUS and how we utilize, protect, and handle that information.

If you have additional questions or require more information about our Privacy Policy, please contact us directly at xestus.office@gmail.com.

2. In-Browser Client-Side Tools Privacy Guarantee

Zero Server Uploads: Every single developer utility and productivity tool on XESTUS (including JSON Formatter, Base64 Encoder, JWT Decoder, UUID Generator, Regex Tester, Hash Generator, and Text Diff) executes 100% client-side inside your browser using standard JavaScript and Web Crypto APIs.

No text, payloads, source code, cryptographic tokens, passwords, or files you input into our tools are ever transmitted to, processed by, or stored on our servers. Your data stays entirely within your local device memory.

3. Log Files & Edge Telemetry

Like most modern web platforms, XESTUS follows standard industry practices for log files. When visitors access the website, our edge CDN infrastructure (e.g., Cloudflare / GitHub Pages) records standard technical telemetry. This information includes:

  • Internet Protocol (IP) addresses (anonymized for telemetry)
  • Browser type, device architecture, and operating system
  • Internet Service Provider (ISP)
  • Date and timestamp of requests
  • Referring / exit pages and requested URLs
  • Number of clicks and TLS handshake latency

This telemetry is not linked to any personally identifiable information (PII). Its sole purpose is to analyze trends, administer the platform, mitigate DDoS attacks, monitor edge server uptime, and optimize website performance.

4. Cookies, Web Beacons & Consent Mode v2

XESTUS uses standard cookies to enhance user experience, remember theme preferences (Night, Day, Eye-Protect), and provide anonymous analytics. We fully support Google Consent Mode v2 and give visitors complete control over optional tracking cookies.

You can manage or customize your preferences at any time via our Cookie Policy or by clicking the Cookie Preferences link in the footer.

5. Google AdSense & DoubleClick DART Cookies

Google is a third-party vendor on our website. It uses cookies, known as DART cookies, to serve advertisements to our site visitors based upon their visit to xestus.in and other sites on the internet.

  • Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to your website or other websites.
  • Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to your sites and/or other sites on the Internet.
  • Users may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings or through the aboutads.info choices page.

Third-party ad servers or ad networks use technologies like cookies, JavaScript, or Web Beacons that are used in their respective advertisements and links that appear on XESTUS. They automatically receive your IP address when this occurs. These technologies are used to measure the effectiveness of their advertising campaigns and/or to personalize the advertising content that you see.

Note: XESTUS has no access to or control over these cookies that are used by third-party advertisers.

6. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics (gtag.js ID: G-EF3ZRR55YY) to measure aggregated audience trends, page views, and geographic distribution. Google Analytics collects anonymized interaction data without storing personal identifying data.

7. GDPR Privacy Rights (Data Protection Rights)

We want to ensure you are fully aware of all your data protection rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Every user is entitled to:

  • The right to access: You have the right to request copies of your personal data.
  • The right to rectification: You have the right to request that we correct any information you believe is inaccurate.
  • The right to erasure: You have the right to request that we erase your personal data under certain conditions.
  • The right to restrict processing: You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data.
  • The right to object to processing: You have the right to object to our processing of your personal data.
  • The right to data portability: You have the right to request that we transfer the data we collected to another organization.

If you make a request, we have one month to respond to you. Please contact us at xestus.office@gmail.com.

8. CCPA Privacy Rights (Do Not Sell My Personal Information)

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), California consumers have the right to:

  • Request that a business disclose the categories and specific pieces of personal data that a business has collected about consumers.
  • Request that a business delete any personal data about the consumer that a business has collected.
  • Request that a business that sells a consumer's personal data, not sell the consumer's personal data. (XESTUS does NOT sell any user data).

9. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)

Another priority is adding protection for children while using the internet. We encourage parents and guardians to observe, participate in, and/or monitor and guide their online activity.

XESTUS does not knowingly collect any Personal Identifiable Information from children under the age of 13. If you think that your child provided this kind of information on our website, we strongly encourage you to contact us immediately and we will do our best efforts to promptly remove such information from our records.
