Your password never leaves this page. It is analysed in your browser by the scripts listed below, and by nothing else.
- Enforced by your browser
- This page's Content Security Policy forbids any network request and any form submission (
connect-src 'none'; form-action 'none'), so even a bug could not send your password anywhere. You can read the policy at the top of the page source. - What is stored
- No cookie, and nothing in the address. The password is never stored, and the field is emptied when you leave the page. Only your language choice, if you make one, is kept in this tab's
sessionStorageuntil you close it. Like any website, the server records the download of the page and its files in its access logs (IP address, date and time, address requested, browser name). It never receives your password. - Code that runs here

- Where zxcvbn.js comes from
- It is built from pinned npm packages, whose integrity npm checks against the lockfile. On every deployment it is rebuilt from scratch and compared byte for byte with the file served here; the deployment stops if they differ.
- Check it yourself
- Download a file and compare its fingerprint with the one above:
curl -s https://r-no.fr/passwords/strength/app.js | shasum -a 256 - Limits
- This is an estimate, not a guarantee. It recognises common passwords, English and French words, names, keyboard patterns, dates, sequences and repetitions, but not your personal details. Only the first 64 characters are analysed. It does not check whether the password appeared in a data breach: that would mean sending something about it over the network.
- Source repository
- The R-no Toolbox repository is private. The files listed above are the complete tool, exactly as your browser runs it.
