PRIVACY POLICY · UPDATED 27 AUGUST 2026

Your code is yours

This policy explains what HTML Online Viewer stores, what our hosting providers may process, and how advertising technologies may be used when advertising is enabled.

Information stored on your device

The editor stores your working HTML, optional CSS, optional JavaScript, theme preference and local version history in your browser's local storage. This makes it possible to return to your work after refreshing the page. Draft code is not intentionally transmitted to our servers by the editor.

You can remove this information by clearing the site's browser data. Importing, editing, previewing and exporting are performed in your browser.

Technical and hosting data

Like most websites, our hosting and security providers may process limited technical information required to deliver and protect the service. This can include an IP address, browser type, requested URL, approximate region, timestamps, security signals and diagnostic logs. We use this information to operate, secure and improve the site.

Advertising and Google AdSense

We may use Google AdSense and other advertising partners to fund the service. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies or similar technologies to serve and measure ads based on a visitor's prior visits to this site or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables Google and its partners to serve ads based on those visits.

Visitors can manage personalized advertising through Google Ads Settings. Visitors may also review industry opt-out choices at aboutads.info. If additional advertising vendors are enabled, their identities and relevant choices will be disclosed through the consent experience or this policy.

Consent and regional choices

Where required, visitors will be shown a consent message before advertising technologies use cookies or personal data for relevant purposes. Advertising for visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland will use a Google-certified consent management platform when required. Visitors covered by that experience can revisit their privacy choices through the consent controls provided on the site.

External content and links

Code placed in the preview can request external images, fonts, scripts or other resources. Those third parties receive the network information ordinarily sent by a browser request. Only preview code you trust. Links to other sites are governed by those sites' own privacy practices.

Children's privacy

The service is a general-purpose developer tool and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the editor.

Changes and contact

We may update this policy as the service, advertising setup or legal requirements change. The updated date at the top will change when material revisions are published. For privacy questions, email hello@html-onlineviewer.com or visit the contact page.
