Privacy Policy

Introduction

This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and handle information when you use our image compression service. We are committed to being transparent about our data practices and complying with applicable privacy laws.

Our service allows you to compress images online through your web browser. We have designed our service to minimize data collection while providing you with an effective image compression tool.

How Our Service Works

Our image compression tool operates using client-side processing technology. When you select an image for compression:

• Images are processed locally in your web browser
• The compression algorithms run on your device's processor
• Compressed images are generated and downloaded directly to your device
• We do not store your original or compressed images on our servers

This approach ensures that your images remain on your device throughout the compression process, providing you with control over your content.
