Privacy Policy - Image Converter

Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important to us. This policy explains how we handle your data.

Overview

Image Converter ("we," "us," "our") operates the imageconverter.online website and application. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring transparency about how we handle your data.

This Privacy Policy explains our data practices for all services provided through our website, applications, and tools. The most important principle is this: all image conversion happens entirely in your browser. Your images never leave your device and are never sent to our servers.

Key Principle: Image Converter is a client-side application. All image processing, conversion, and rendering occurs locally in your web browser using standard web APIs (Canvas API, File API). Your images are processed on your device only and are never uploaded to, stored on, or transmitted to any server.

What Data Do We Collect?

Image Files

When you use Image Converter to convert images, the image files you select are loaded directly into your browser's memory. These files are not uploaded to any server, not stored on our servers, and not retained after your browser session ends. Your images exist only in your device's RAM during the conversion process.

Usage Analytics

We may collect non-personal, anonymized usage data to understand how our service is used and to improve performance. This includes:

  • Which converter tools are used most frequently
  • Approximate geographic location (country/region level, not precise)
  • Device type and browser information
  • Conversion success/failure rates
  • Page load times and error rates

This data is collected through analytics services and contains no information about your images, personal identity, or file contents.

Contact Information

If you contact us via our contact form, email, or other means, we collect:

  • Your name
  • Email address
  • Message content
  • Any attachments you choose to include

We use this information solely to respond to your inquiry and provide customer support.

Cookies

We may use cookies to store user preferences, language settings, and analytics identifiers. See the "Cookies & Tracking" section below for details.

Server Logs

Our servers automatically log standard HTTP information when you visit our website:

  • IP address
  • Request timestamp
  • Page accessed
  • Referrer information
  • Browser and device type

Server logs do not contain information about the images you convert or personal data about you beyond what is standard for all website visitors.

How We Use Your Data

Providing the Service

We use your data primarily to deliver the Image Converter service. Since all conversion happens in your browser, we have no access to your image data. Server usage is limited to:

  • Serving website files and assets
  • Hosting the web interface
  • Tracking uptime and performance

Improving the Service

We analyze aggregated, anonymized usage data to:

  • Identify which tools are most popular
  • Fix bugs and improve performance
  • Understand user behavior patterns
  • Plan new features

Customer Support

If you contact us with a question or issue, we use the information you provide to respond to your inquiry, troubleshoot problems, and improve our support.

Legal Compliance

We may use your data if required by law, to enforce our Terms of Service, to protect our rights, or to prevent fraud or misuse of our service.

What We Don't Use Your Data For

  • We do not sell or rent your data to third parties
  • We do not use your data for marketing or advertising purposes without consent
  • We do not build profiles based on your image usage
  • We do not train machine learning models on your images or data
  • We do not share your image data with advertisers or data brokers

Data Security

In-Browser Processing (Your Images)

Your images are processed entirely within your web browser using standard web APIs. Security at this level is guaranteed by your device's operating system and browser security model. Your images are never encrypted, transmitted, or stored because they never leave your device.

No Server Storage: Because your images are never sent to our servers, there is no risk of them being compromised in a data breach, accessed by unauthorized personnel, or retained beyond your session.

Website & Server Security

We implement industry-standard security measures to protect our website and any data we do collect:

  • HTTPS encryption for all data transmitted between your browser and our servers
  • Regular security audits and vulnerability assessments
  • Firewalls and intrusion detection systems
  • Restricted access to servers and databases
  • Regular security updates and patches
  • Data encryption at rest for sensitive information

Limitations

While we implement strong security measures, no system is completely immune to attacks. We encourage you to use strong passwords, enable two-factor authentication where available, and keep your device's security software up to date.

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help websites remember information about you. They are used to enhance user experience and track usage patterns.

How We Use Cookies

Image Converter uses cookies for:

  • Functional cookies: Remember your language preference, converter settings, and interface customizations
  • Analytics cookies: Track which tools are used, conversion success rates, and user flow through the website
  • Performance cookies: Measure page load times and identify performance bottlenecks

Third-Party Cookies

We use analytics services (such as Google Analytics) that set their own cookies. These cookies do not contain your image data and are used only to analyze website usage. You can opt out of third-party analytics by adjusting your browser settings or using browser extensions.

Managing Cookies

Most browsers allow you to control how cookies are handled:

  • Delete existing cookies
  • Block new cookies from being set
  • Block only third-party cookies
  • Enable "Do Not Track" signals

Disabling cookies may affect the functionality of Image Converter. However, since all image processing happens in your browser, disabling cookies will not affect your privacy or prevent conversion.

Local Storage & Session Storage

We may use browser local storage to store user preferences. This data is stored on your device only and is not transmitted to any server.

Third-Party Services

Hosting & CDN

Our website is hosted on servers provided by third-party hosting providers. These providers have their own privacy policies and security practices. We select providers that meet industry-standard security requirements.

Analytics

We use analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use our website. These services may collect data about your browsing activity, including page visits, referrer sources, and device information. The analytics services have their own privacy policies that you should review.

No Image Data Shared

Image Converter does not share your image data with any third parties. All image processing happens client-side in your browser. Third-party services do not have access to the images you convert.

Third-Party Websites

Image Converter may contain links to external websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any external websites before providing your information.
