Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how SmartCropper handles website usage data, cookies, advertising services, analytics, and images processed through our tools.
Effective date: July 2025
Information We Collect
Core tools do not require an account. We may process basic technical information such as IP address, approximate region, browser type, device type, pages viewed, referrer, and interaction events through Google Analytics 4, Vercel Analytics, hosting, security, and advertising providers.
Images You Process
Browser-local tools process images on your device when possible. Image Upscaler sends the selected image to the SmartCropper server for resizing, sharpening, compression, and JPEG output. Processed responses are returned with no-store cache headers. Avoid uploading sensitive images or images you do not have permission to process.
Third-Party Services
We use service providers including Google Analytics 4, Google AdSense, Vercel Analytics, and hosting/security providers. Their processing is governed by their own terms and privacy policies.
How We Use Your Information
We use information to operate the tools, understand site usage, diagnose product issues, improve performance, prevent abuse, comply with legal obligations, and support advertising where enabled. We do not sell user images or intentionally send file names, image URLs, or image contents as analytics events.
Analytics and diagnostics
Analytics events are intended to describe product usage such as page views, tool interactions, processing status, language changes, and downloads. They should not contain file names, emails, uploaded image contents, or other unnecessary personal data.
Advertising and ad measurement
SmartCropper may show advertising through Google AdSense after the site is approved and the required consent configuration is in place. Third-party advertising vendors may place or read cookies, use web beacons, IP addresses, device or browser identifiers, and advertising identifiers to deliver, limit, personalize where permitted, and measure ads.
Image retention and logs
Images uploaded to the Image Upscaler are processed for the current request and returned with no-store cache headers. SmartCropper does not provide user accounts or galleries for uploaded images. Hosting, security, advertising, and analytics providers may retain technical logs under their own retention periods.
