Privacy Policy — Storelines

    Short version: Storelines Tools runs entirely in your browser. We do not collect, store, or sell your personal data. The only local storage we use is to remember your invoice counter — and only on your own device.
  

1. Introduction

Welcome to Storelines Tools ("we," "our," or "us"), operated at storelines.net. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our data practices.

This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights under the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and other applicable laws.

2. Information We Collect

Tool Usage (No Data Collected)

All 18 business tools on Storelines Tools — VAT Validator, IBAN Checker, Currency Converter, and others — run entirely client-side in your browser. No data you enter into these tools is transmitted to our servers or stored anywhere.

Local Storage

The Invoice Number Generator uses your browser's localStorage to maintain a sequential invoice counter. This data never leaves your device and can be cleared by clearing your browser data.

Contact Form

If you submit our contact form, we collect your name, email address, and message content solely to respond to your inquiry. This data is not used for marketing without your explicit consent.

Analytics (Anonymised)

We may use privacy-respecting analytics to understand aggregate usage patterns (e.g., which tools are most used). No personally identifiable information is collected or stored in this process.

Cookies

We use minimal, functional cookies only. We do not use advertising or tracking cookies. Our affiliate partner Wise Business may set cookies on their own domain when you click their link — their privacy policy applies.

3. How We Use Your Information

To respond to contact form inquiries
To improve the functionality and content of our tools
To monitor site performance and fix technical issues
To comply with legal obligations

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties.

4. Affiliate Links — Wise Business

Storelines Tools has an affiliate partnership with Wise Business. When you click on Wise links on our site, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Wise links are marked with rel="noopener sponsored".

Clicking a Wise link takes you to Wise's website, where their own Privacy Policy applies. We encourage you to review it at wise.com.

5. GDPR — Your Rights

If you are located in the European Union, you have the following rights under the GDPR:

Right of access — request a copy of any personal data we hold about you
Right to rectification — request correction of inaccurate data
Right to erasure — request deletion of your personal data
Right to restriction — request that we limit how we process your data
Right to data portability — receive your data in a machine-readable format
Right to object — object to processing based on legitimate interests

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@storelines.net. We will respond within 30 days.

6. Data Security

Because Storelines Tools processes data locally in your browser, the risk of data breaches affecting your tool usage is minimal. Our website is served over HTTPS. Contact form submissions are handled securely.

7. Children's Privacy

Storelines Tools is intended for business use and is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has submitted data through our contact form, please notify us immediately.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be reflected by an updated "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
