  "seoIntro": "Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data in an ASCII string format. It is widely used in email attachments, data URLs, JSON Web Tokens, and storing binary blobs in text-only mediums.\n\nThis tool encodes and decodes Base64 entirely in your browser — your input never leaves your device.",
  "seoFaq": [
    { "q": "Is my data uploaded anywhere?", "a": "No. All encoding and decoding happens locally in your browser using the Web platform's btoa/atob and FileReader APIs." },
    { "q": "What is the maximum file size?", "a": "It depends on your browser's available memory; large files (tens of MB) may be slow to render." },
    { "q": "Does it support URL-safe Base64?", "a": "Yes — toggle the URL-safe option to use - and _ instead of + and /." }
