Privacy Policy

1. Information We Do NOT Collect

PhotoResizer.io is built with privacy as a core principle. We do NOT collect, store, or transmit:

• Your Photos: All image processing happens locally in your browser using Canvas API. Your photos never leave your device.
• Personal Information: We do not require registration, email addresses, or any personal details.
• Usage Data: We do not track which images you compress or how you use the service.
• Device Information: We do not collect information about your device, browser, or operating system.
• Location Data: We do not access or collect your geographic location.

2. How Our Service Works

PhotoResizer.io is a browser-based application that processes images entirely on your device:

• When you upload a photo, it stays in your browser's memory
• Compression is performed using JavaScript and Canvas API locally
• Compressed images are generated in your browser
• You download the results directly from your browser
• No data is sent to our servers at any point

This architecture ensures complete privacy and security of your photos.

3. Cookies and Local Storage

PhotoResizer.io does not use cookies or browser local storage to track you. We may use minimal technical cookies in the future solely for:

• Remembering your compression settings (quality level, output format)
• Improving user experience

These cookies, if implemented, would only store your preferences and never contain personal information or image data.

4. Third-Party Services

PhotoResizer.io currently does not integrate with any third-party services or analytics platforms. We do not use:

• Google Analytics or similar tracking tools
• Social media pixels
• Advertising networks
• External CDNs for processing

If we add any third-party services in the future, we will update this policy and ensure they comply with our privacy standards.

5. Data Security

Since your photos never leave your device, they are as secure as your device itself. We recommend:

• Using HTTPS (our site is served over secure connection)
• Keeping your browser updated
• Using trusted networks when processing sensitive images
• Clearing browser cache after processing confidential photos

6. Children's Privacy

PhotoResizer.io does not knowingly collect information from children under 13. Since we don't collect any personal information at all, our service can be safely used by anyone. However, we recommend parental supervision for young users.

7. International Users

PhotoResizer.io can be used from anywhere in the world. Since all processing happens in your browser and we don't collect data, there are no data transfer or jurisdiction concerns. Your photos remain in your device regardless of your location.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify users of any material changes by:

• Updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy
• Displaying a notice on our homepage (for significant changes)

Your continued use of PhotoResizer.io after any changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.

9. Your Rights

Since we don't collect or store your data, there is no data to access, modify, or delete. However, you always have the right to:

• Stop using our service at any time
• Clear your browser cache and cookies
• Contact us with privacy concerns or questions

10. Legal Compliance

PhotoResizer.io is designed to comply with major privacy regulations including:

• GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation - EU)
• CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act - USA)
• PIPEDA (Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act - Canada)

Our no-data-collection approach makes compliance straightforward since there is no personal data to protect.
