Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 24, 2026

Welcome to IMG File

IMG File is a platform built on trust. We believe that privacy isn't just a policy-it's a fundamental feature of our product.

This document is our promise to you tailored for transparency. It explains clearly that we process your files locally and collect only the data necessary to provide and improve our services.

We Respect Your Privacy

Our platform is architected with a "Privacy First" approach. We process your files without ever owning, seeing, or storing them.

100% Client-Side

Your Images Stay with You

All processing happens directly in your browser. Images are never uploaded to our servers or stored in any database.

  • No Server Uploads
  • No Permanent Storage
Zero Personal Data

No Personal Info Required

We don't ask for your name, email, or usage intent. You can use our tools anonymously without creating an account.

  • No Sign-up Needed
  • No Profile Tracking

Image & File Processing Policy

IMG File is built on a client-side processing architecture. This means that when you upload images for compression, conversion, resizing, background removal, or any other transformation, the following principles apply:

Client-Side Processing

All file manipulations occur in your web browser utilizing WebAssembly. No server upload required.

Zero Server Storage

Your images are never saved, cached, or stored on IMG File servers.

Temporary Memory

Images are held in browser RAM only while processing and cleared immediately after.

No Third-Party Access

Your files are private. They are never accessible to advertisers or analytics providers.
