Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 2026

At OnlineDeveloperTool, the privacy of our visitors is of extreme importance. This Privacy Policy document outlines the types of information that is received and collected and how it is used.

1. Client-Side Processing

Many tools run in JavaScript in your browser, so their inputs are processed locally rather than uploaded to an OnlineDeveloperTool application server. The Website Status Checker sends browser requests to the target URLs you enter; the target website may receive normal connection information such as your IP address. Browser extensions, hosting, analytics, advertising, and other third-party services may also process data according to their own policies.

2. Google AdSense & Third-Party Cookies

Google AdSense may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver, measure, and personalize advertising, subject to your region and consent settings. You can review or change personalized-ad settings through Google Ads Settings. Third-party advertising practices are governed by the relevant provider policies.

3. Compliance Frameworks

This page is general information, not a guarantee of security or legal compliance. The way data is processed can also depend on your browser, extensions, network, the target website you check, and third-party services such as advertising.

onlinedevelopertool.com is a collection of 54 free, browser-based utilities for the small jobs that interrupt real work: formatting a JSON response, decoding a token, converting a timestamp, generating a UUID or checking a hash. Each tool has its own page with a short explanation, a worked example and answers to common questions, so you can use it and learn what it does at the same time.

There is no account to create and nothing to install. Tools run in your browser, so the text you paste is processed on your own device. The one exception is the Website Status Checker, which sends a request from your browser to the address you enter.

Three steps: paste your input, click the tool, copy the result, all inside your browser
Popular developer utilities: JWT decoder, UUID generator, Base64 decoder, SHA-256 hash, regex tester and timestamp converter

What you can do here

  • JSON Tools

    Format, validate, beautify and minify JSON, generate C#, TypeScript, Java, Python, Go, PHP and Kotlin models from it, or convert between JSON, YAML and CSV.

  • Encoders & Decoders

    URL, Base64 and HTML encoding and decoding, plus a JWT decoder for reading token claims.

  • Generators & Hashes

    Generate UUIDs and JWTs, validate UUIDs, and create MD5, SHA-256 and SHA-512 hashes.

  • Web Tools

    Timestamps, color codes, query strings and cron expressions - the small things web work keeps throwing at you.

  • Text & Data

    Format XML and YAML, count text, change case, make slugs, test regex, diff two texts and convert number bases.

  • Website Checking

    Check whether a website or URL is reachable from your browser.

Quick developer reference

  • JSON

    Keys and strings must use double quotes, and trailing commas and comments are not allowed. Those are the three most common reasons a payload fails to parse.

    Validate JSON
  • JWT

    A JSON Web Token is three Base64URL parts joined by dots: header, payload and signature. Decoding shows the claims but does not prove the token is genuine; only signature verification does.

    Decode a JWT
  • Base64

    Base64 is an encoding, not encryption. Anyone can reverse it, and it makes data roughly one third larger, so never use it to hide secrets.

    Decode Base64
  • UUID

    A version 4 UUID is made of random bits and written as 8-4-4-4-12 hexadecimal characters. Collisions are astronomically unlikely, which is why they work well as identifiers.

    Generate a UUID
  • Timestamps

    A Unix timestamp counts time since 1 January 1970 UTC. Ten digits usually means seconds and thirteen digits usually means milliseconds.

    Convert a timestamp
  • Hashes

    MD5 is fine for quick checksums but is not safe for security. Prefer SHA-256 or SHA-512, and remember that hashing is one-way and is not encryption.

    Create a SHA-256 hash
