Frequently Asked Questions
What is Base64 encoding?
Base64 encoding converts binary data into a text representation using a set of 64 characters. It’s commonly used to encode images, credentials, and binary data for transmission over text-based systems like HTTP headers and email.
What is URL encoding?
URL encoding (also called percent-encoding) replaces characters that are not allowed in URLs with a percent sign followed by two hexadecimal digits. For example, a space becomes %20 and an ampersand becomes %26.
What are HTML entities?
HTML entities are codes that represent special characters in HTML. For example, the < character is encoded as < and & is encoded as &. Encoding HTML entities prevents browsers from interpreting text as markup.
Is this tool safe to use for sensitive data?
Encoding is not encryption – Base64 and URL encoding provide no security. Do not use this tool to protect passwords or sensitive personal data. For security purposes, use proper encryption tools instead.
