Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 6, 2026

The short version: FileTango processes all files locally in your browser. We never upload, store, or transmit your files. We cannot see or access your data.

1. Introduction

This Privacy Policy explains how FileTango ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you use our website at filetango.com (the "Service"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices.

2. File Processing

The core functionality of FileTango — renaming files, changing extensions, and other file operations — runs entirely within your web browser. When you select files using our tools:

  • Files are read by your browser's local File API
  • All processing (renaming, extension changes, ZIP creation) happens in browser memory
  • No file data is sent to our servers or any third-party server
  • No file names, contents, or metadata are collected or logged
  • Downloaded ZIP files are created locally and saved directly to your device

We physically cannot access your files because our architecture does not include any server-side file processing component. Your files never leave your device.

3. Information We Collect

We do not collect personal information. FileTango does not require registration, does not ask for your name or email, and does not create user accounts.

However, certain third-party services we use may collect limited, anonymized data:

  • Google AdSense: We display advertisements to support the free service. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your browsing activity. See Google's Privacy Policy for details.
  • Web analytics: We may use basic analytics to understand aggregate usage patterns (e.g., which tools are most popular, which pages are visited). This data is anonymized and does not identify individual users.

4. Cookies

FileTango itself does not set cookies. However, third-party services (such as Google AdSense) may set cookies for advertising purposes. We implement Google Consent Mode v2, which means:

  • For users in the European Economic Area (EEA): cookies are only set after you provide explicit consent through our consent banner
  • For users outside the EEA: advertising cookies may be set by default, in accordance with local regulations
  • You can manage cookies through your browser settings at any time

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to third parties. Since we do not collect personal information in the first place, there is nothing to share.

6. Data Security

The strongest security measure we offer is architectural: your files are processed locally and never transmitted over any network. There is no server-side storage to breach and no database of user files to compromise. Your data security is guaranteed by the design of our system.

7. Children's Privacy

FileTango does not knowingly collect information from children under 13. Our service does not require any personal information to use, making it safe for users of all ages.

8. Your Rights

Under GDPR, CCPA, and similar privacy regulations, you have the right to access, correct, delete, and port your personal data. Since FileTango does not collect personal data, these rights are inherently satisfied — there is no personal data to access, correct, delete, or port.

You can control advertising cookies through our consent mechanism or through your browser's cookie settings.

9. Third-Party Links

Our website may contain links to other websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party sites. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any website you visit.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable laws. We will post the updated policy on this page with a revised "last updated" date. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
