Frequently asked questions

Is my data uploaded to a server?

No. Everything runs locally in your browser. Your input never leaves your device, so it is safe to use with private or proprietary data.

Is Formatter free?

Yes. Every tool is free to use with no sign-up and no limits. A few ads around the tools keep the site running; they never appear inside the editors.
