1. Overview
The short version: Your images never leave your device. ImgShift performs all image conversion locally in your browser using JavaScript. We do not upload, process, store, or transmit your image files in any way.
ImgShift ("we," "us," or "our") operates the website at snapconvert.app (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you use our Service.
We are committed to protecting your privacy. This policy is written in plain language so you understand exactly what happens with your data.
2. Data We Do Not Collect
We want to be explicit about what we do not collect:
- Your image files — All image conversion happens entirely within your browser. No image file is ever uploaded to our servers or any third-party server.
- Account information — We do not require you to create an account. We do not collect names, email addresses, or passwords.
- Payment information — ImgShift is free. We do not collect credit card numbers or any payment data.
- Personal identification — We do not collect your name, address, phone number, or any personally identifiable information.
3. Data We Do Collect
Like all websites, we automatically receive some basic technical data when you visit:
- Log data — Your browser type, operating system, referring URL, pages visited, and time/date of your visit. This is standard web server logging.
- IP address — Your IP address is included in server logs. We do not use this to identify you personally.
- Usage analytics — We may use analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to understand how many people visit the site and which features they use. This data is aggregated and anonymized.
This data is used solely to understand site performance and improve the Service. It is never sold to third parties.
4. Cookies & Advertising
ImgShift uses cookies in the following ways:
- Essential cookies — Required for the website to function properly. These do not track you.
- Analytics cookies — Help us understand how visitors interact with our site (e.g. Google Analytics). You can opt out via your browser settings.
- Advertising cookies — ImgShift displays advertisements through Google AdSense. Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website and other sites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
You can control cookies through your browser settings or via our Cookie Settings link in the footer. For more information about how Google uses data when you use our site, visit Google's Privacy & Terms.
5. Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services:
- Google AdSense — Serves advertisements on our site. Google may collect data per their own privacy policy.
- Google Analytics — Tracks anonymized usage statistics. See Google's Privacy Policy.
- Google Fonts — Loads fonts from Google's CDN. Google may log font requests.
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your information to any other outside parties.
6. Children's Privacy
ImgShift does not knowingly collect any personal information from children under the age of 13. Our Service is not directed at children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it immediately.
7. Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have the following rights regarding your data:
- Access — The right to request information about what data we hold about you.
- Deletion — The right to request deletion of any personal data we hold.
- Opt-out — The right to opt out of personalized advertising via Google Ads Settings.
- Portability — The right to receive a copy of your data in a machine-readable format.
Since we collect minimal data and no image files, most of these rights are automatically satisfied by our architecture. To exercise any rights, contact us at the email below.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this policy periodically. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the new policy.
