Privacy Policy

Effective & Last Updated: September 14, 2026

1. How Your Images Are Handled

When you upload an image, it is never sent to our servers. All decoding, compression calculations, and encoding occur entirely inside your browser using HTML5 Canvas and Web Workers. Files remain in local device memory and are discarded when you close or refresh the page.

2. Technical Information We Collect

Accessing any website requires standard browser-to-server communication. Our web hosting infrastructure may automatically log:

  • IP address
  • Browser type, language, and OS version (user-agent)
  • Date and time of page request
  • Referring page or link
  • Specific pages or assets requested on our domain

These logs are used solely for detecting server errors, preventing DDoS attacks, and maintaining infrastructure security.

3. Local Storage & Cookies

Free Image Reducer does not use tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party marketing identifiers.

We use browser localStorage for one functional purpose only:

Key: fir-theme

Stores your preferred visual mode (light, dark, or system) so your preference persists across reloads. This value never leaves your device.

4. Analytics & Third-Party Trackers

Free Image Reducer does not run third-party behavioral analytics, session recorders, or heatmaps. We do not profile usage, build tracking graphs, or sell data to brokers or advertising networks.

5. Third-Party Services & CDNs

The application is deployed as a static site. All typography, scripts, stylesheets, and icons are bundled directly from our domain without connecting to external CDNs or script providers.

6. Email Communications

If you contact us via email, we retain your email address and message only to respond to your inquiry. We will never sell, rent, or use your contact details for unsolicited marketing.

7. Security

HTTPS is enforced across the entire domain. Because your images are processed locally within your browser sandbox, they benefit from your device's built-in OS and browser security controls.

8. Your Privacy Rights

Under GDPR, CCPA, and similar regulations, individuals have rights to access, rectify, or delete their personal data. Because Free Image Reducer does not require account creation, never receives your images, and collects no personal profiles, we hold no personal image data to disclose, transfer, or delete. For questions about technical server logs or email correspondence, contact us at any time.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our tool or applicable legal standards. Modifications will be posted here with an updated revision date.
