1. Client-Side Data Processing Architecture
When you enter, paste, format, beautify, minify, or export SQL code on sqlqueryformatter.com, the entire lexical analysis, abstract syntax tree (AST) construction, and indentation formatting occurs strictly within your web browser's JavaScript runtime engine.
At no point during the formatting cycle is any query text, schema structure, table identifier, or database payload transmitted to any external backend server, API gateway, or cloud storage bucket. Once you refresh or close your browser tab, all formatted queries are cleared from local browser memory.
2. Local Storage & Client Cookies
Our website does not place third-party advertising cookies, cross-site trackers, or session recording beacons on your device.
We use standard browser localStorage solely for storing user UI preferences:
themeStores your preference between light mode ("light") and dark mode ("dark") to prevent screen flickering when navigating. You can clear this storage key at any time in your browser settings.
3. Web Hosting & Infrastructure
Static assets (HTML, CSS, JavaScript bundles, and web fonts) are hosted and distributed globally via secure edge content delivery networks.
Standard web server access logs may record technical transmission metadata such as your IP address, browser user-agent, referring URL, and timestamp. This data is collected solely for DDoS mitigation, infrastructure health monitoring, and edge firewall protection. These logs never contain SQL query contents.
