Text processing
Text entered into PasteScrub is processed locally in your browser. It is not transmitted to our servers, stored in our databases, included in analytics, or used to personalize advertising. Closing or refreshing the page clears the working text unless your browser retains the page state.
Analytics
We use Google Analytics 4 to collect aggregate usage information such as page views, device category, country, and tool popularity. Analytics events must never contain text you paste, cleaned output, or filenames.
Advertising
We use Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies, IP addresses, and similar technologies to serve and measure ads.
Where consent is requested
In the EEA, the UK, and Switzerland, a Google-certified consent message asks before any analytics or advertising storage is used, and Google Consent Mode keeps that storage switched off until you choose. Elsewhere, analytics and advertising are on by default and you can switch them off at any time.
Your choices
Use the privacy choices link in the footer at any time. In the EEA, the UK, and Switzerland it reopens the consent message; elsewhere it lets you turn optional analytics and advertising off. Your choice is remembered on this device.
Contact
Questions about privacy, including requests to access or delete personal data, can be sent to [email protected]. Because pasted text is never transmitted to us, we hold no copy of it to retrieve or erase.
