Privacy Policy

Your Privacy, Our Priority

Last updated: September 2026. ImageResizely is built on a privacy-first architecture — your images never leave your device.

Privacy policy details

Executive Summary

ImageResizely does not collect, store, or transmit your images. All image processing — resizing, compression, conversion, cropping, watermarking — happens entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript and WebAssembly.

No uploads. No cloud processing. No server-side storage. Your images remain on your device at all times.

Data We Don't Collect

  • Your images or image data
  • EXIF metadata from your images (unless you explicitly use the EXIF editor)
  • Personally identifiable information
  • IP addresses linked to image processing
  • Usage analytics tied to your identity

Data We May Collect (Anonymous)

  • Anonymous aggregate usage statistics (e.g., "resize tool used 10,000 times today")
  • Browser/device type for compatibility improvements
  • Error logs (no image data included)
  • If you create an account for Pro/Team: email, name, billing info (processed by Stripe)

How Client-Side Processing Works

When you select images in ImageResizely:

  1. Files are read via the File API into memory (browser RAM)
  2. HTML5 Canvas draws and transforms the image
  3. WebAssembly modules (when available) accelerate compression
  4. Output is generated as a Blob/Object URL
  5. You download directly — no server request ever made

This architecture means:

  • Zero latency from upload/download
  • Unlimited file sizes (limited only by your device RAM)
  • Complete offline capability after initial load
  • No bandwidth costs or limits
  • GDPR/CCPA compliant by design

Third-Party Services

Stripe — Processes payments for Pro/Team subscriptions. We never see your full card details. See Stripe Privacy Policy.

Vercel/Cloudflare — Hosts our static assets (HTML, CSS, JS). No image processing occurs on their servers. See their respective privacy policies.

No analytics — We don't use Google Analytics, Mixpanel, or similar tracking. We may add privacy-respecting analytics (Plausible/Fathom) in the future with clear opt-out.

Cookies & Local Storage

We use minimal local storage only for:

  • Remembering your last-used settings (format, quality, fit mode)
  • Preserving your preset preferences
  • PWA installation state

No tracking cookies. No third-party cookies. You can clear local storage anytime without losing functionality.

Children's Privacy

ImageResizely is not directed at children under 13. We don't knowingly collect personal information from children. Since we don't collect personal information from anyone, this is inherent.

Your Rights

Since we don't store your images or personal data (except optional account info for paid plans), most data rights requests are trivially satisfied:

  • Access: We have no image data to provide
  • Deletion: Nothing to delete (account data removable on request)
  • Portability: Export your account data from settings
  • Opt-out: No tracking to opt out of

Security

HTTPS everywhere — All connections encrypted with TLS 1.3.

Content Security Policy — Strict CSP prevents XSS and data exfiltration.

Subresource Integrity — All external resources verified via SRI hashes.

No server-side processing — Eliminates entire classes of server vulnerabilities.

Regular audits — Dependency scanning and security reviews.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy. Material changes will be announced via the website and (if you have an account) email. Continued use constitutes acceptance.
