Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 12, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Forbes Free Reader (the "Tool") handles information. Your privacy matters, and the Tool is designed to collect as little as possible.

1. Information We Do Not Collect

The Tool does not require an account, does not ask for personal information, and does not sell any data. We do not create user profiles.

2. URLs You Submit

When you paste a link, it is sent to our server only to fetch and parse the requested page so it can be displayed to you. URLs and the fetched content are processed in memory to serve your request and are not permanently stored or associated with your identity.

3. Content You Read

Parsed article text is returned directly to your browser for display. It is not saved to a database by the Tool.

4. Server Logs

Our hosting provider may automatically record standard technical information (such as IP address, browser type, and request timestamps) for security, abuse prevention, and operational purposes. This is standard for virtually all websites and is handled according to the hosting provider's own policies.

5. Third-Party Content

The pages you request are served by third parties. Once content is displayed, any links you follow are governed by the privacy policies of those third-party sites, not by this policy.

6. Cookies

The Tool does not set tracking or advertising cookies.

7. Your Responsibility

You are solely responsible for the URLs you choose to submit and for ensuring you have the right to access the content. See our Terms of Use for details.

8. Changes

This Privacy Policy may be updated at any time. Continued use of the Tool constitutes acceptance of any changes.

9. Contact

Questions can be directed to the developer at @AbhinavRajx404.
