Terms of Service
What this is
Unformat.online provides free, browser-based tools for developers — text cleaning, code and data formatting (JSON, SQL, YAML, XML), encoding and decoding (Base64, URL), debugging utilities (JWT decoding, diff checking, Markdown preview), and ID and schedule utilities (UUID generation, cron visualization), among others. The current lineup is always visible in the site's navigation menu and About page, and grows as we add more — these terms apply to every tool on the site, including ones added after this page was last updated. No account, registration, or payment is required. By using this site you agree to these terms.
This includes FileSQL, a tool that lets you query CSV and JSON files using SQL directly in your browser. FileSQL is powered by DuckDB Wasm and runs entirely client-side — your files are never uploaded to any server.
It also includes Shredder, a privacy tool that strips hidden metadata from images (GPS, Exif), PDFs (author, edit history), and text files (API keys, IP addresses). All Shredder processing runs entirely in your browser — your files are never uploaded to any server.
It also includes CronScope, a cron expression visualizer that shows a 12-month calendar of every trigger date for any cron expression, with timezone support and a frequency safety check. All CronScope processing runs entirely in your browser — your cron expressions are never sent to any server.
It also includes the SSL Certificate Checker, the one tool on this site that is not fully client-side: it sends the domain name you type to our server to perform a live TLS handshake, since browsers can't do this from JavaScript. See our Privacy Policy for details.
