The TEMOTO promise

Three promises

1. We do not send your files

   Files you put in a tool's box are processed only on your device. They are not sent to TEMOTO or anywhere else.

2. We do not count how often you use a tool

   We keep no record of which tools you use or how many times.

3. No ads or analytics inside the box

   There are no ads or analytics on the pages at the moment. If we add them later, they will be outside the box only, and they will be listed in the External transmission policy.

How the tool's box works

The tool itself runs inside a "box": a small window (an iframe) that is loaded from a separate address.

Browsers do not let pages from different addresses look inside each other. So the rest of the page cannot see into the box.

The box has a browser rule that stops connections to the outside (CSP), and a rule that limits what it can do (sandbox).

The parts a tool needs are loaded before you choose a file. After you choose a file, the box makes 0 connections.

Once you have opened a tool, it is made to work without an internet connection too.

Check it yourself

1. 1

   Open a tool page in the browser on a computer.

2. 2

   Open the developer tools (for example with the F12 key) and go to the Network tab.

3. 3

   Choose a file and use the tool. Check that no new entries appear.

Checked by automated tests

Before each release, automated tests check that:

• nothing is sent from choosing a file until saving it
• the browser blocks any attempt to send data out of the box
• the rest of the page cannot look inside the box
• the places the pages connect to match the External transmission policy

What we cannot protect

• The box protects only the files you put inside it.
• We cannot protect against things in your own environment, such as browser extensions or malware on your device.
• We cannot fully protect you if the page itself has been tampered with. The part of the page outside the box is built not to accept files.
