What is TrustScan.dev?
TrustScan.dev is a free suite of privacy and security tools that helps businesses and individuals navigate data protection regulations, audit their digital privacy exposure, and take control of how their data is used by AI platforms and websites.
Every tool on TrustScan runs entirely in your browser. Your files, documents, and personal data never touch our servers. There are no accounts, no paywalls, and no premium tiers - every tool is free to use permanently.

Who TrustScan Is For
TrustScan is built for three main audiences. Small and medium businesses that need to understand which privacy laws apply to them - GDPR, CCPA, EU AI Act, US state laws - without paying for legal counsel for every question. Developers and product teams who need to audit their websites, PDFs, and browser extensions for privacy compliance before shipping. And privacy-conscious individuals who want to understand how they are tracked online and take back control of their data.
In 2026, over 20 US states have comprehensive privacy laws, the EU AI Act is in full enforcement, and new regulations are emerging globally every quarter. Most businesses do not have the resources to track all of this. TrustScan fills that gap with tools that give clear, actionable answers in minutes rather than hours of research.
Why Client-Side Only?
Most "free" PDF tools, privacy checkers, and file processors upload your data to their servers, process it remotely, and send it back. You are trusting a server you know nothing about with potentially sensitive documents.
Every TrustScan tool is engineered to run entirely in your browser tab using client-side JavaScript. The PDF Metadata Stripper processes your file locally using pdf-lib - zero network requests. The Browser Fingerprint Analyzer reads your browser's properties locally. You can verify this yourself by opening DevTools, going to the Network tab, and watching for outbound requests while using any tool. You will see none.
This is not just a privacy feature - it is the foundation that makes TrustScan trustworthy enough to use for sensitive compliance work.
Who Built This
TrustScan is built by a cybersecurity professional and Wazuh Ambassador with hands-on experience in cloud security, web application development, and data protection compliance. The platform is built with Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS, and deployed on Netlify.
The Wazuh Ambassador program recognises security practitioners who contribute practical cybersecurity education to the community. TrustScan is one of those contributions - practical privacy tooling built with real security expertise, not marketing copy.
How TrustScan Is Sustained
TrustScan is supported through non-intrusive advertising and affiliate recommendations for compliance tools and services. Editorial content and tool outputs are never influenced by advertising relationships. The tools will remain free permanently.
