Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026

DevStash ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website devstash.space. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use our site.

Data Collection & Processing

DevStash is a collection of client-side developer tools. All tool processing happens entirely in your browser. We do not collect, store, or transmit any data you enter into our tools. No user accounts are required, no server-side processing occurs, and no personal data from tool usage is stored on our servers.

Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4 (GA4) to understand how visitors use the site. GA4 collects anonymized usage data such as pages visited, time on site, device type, and general geographic region. This data helps us improve the tools and user experience. Google Analytics may set cookies on your browser. You can opt out by using a browser extension such as the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. For more information, see Google's Privacy Policy.

Advertising & Google AdSense

We display advertisements on our site through Google AdSense. Google AdSense uses cookies and similar technologies (such as web beacons) to serve ads based on your prior visits to this site and other websites. Specifically:

• Personalized ads: Google may use information about your visits to this and other websites to provide advertisements about goods and services that may interest you. This is based on the DoubleClick cookie.
• Non-personalized ads: Where consent is not given or personalization is disabled, Google may still serve non-personalized ads based on contextual information such as the content of the current page.
• Third-party ad technology partners: Google works with certified ad technology companies that may also collect data. You can review the list of Google's ad technology partners.

You can manage your ad personalization preferences or opt out of personalized advertising at Google Ad Settings. You may also visit aboutads.info to opt out of third-party advertising cookies.

Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. DevStash and its third-party partners use cookies as follows:

• Essential (localStorage): We use browser localStorage to remember your theme preference (dark/light mode). This is not a cookie and is not shared with any third party.
• Analytics cookies: Set by Google Analytics to distinguish users and throttle request rates. These cookies expire after varying periods (up to 2 years).
• Advertising cookies: Set by Google AdSense and its ad technology partners to serve and measure the effectiveness of ads. The DoubleClick cookie is used for ad personalization and targeting.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of third-party services on this site.
