Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 15, 2026
Overview
img-compress is an image compression tool that runs entirely in your browser. Your image files are never uploaded, transmitted, or stored on any server — compression happens locally on your device using your browser's own processing power.
Your images
We have no access to the images you compress. They are read directly from your device into your browser's memory, processed locally, and never leave your device unless you choose to download the result. We cannot see, store, or recover them.
Data we may collect
If you accept analytics cookies, we use Google Analytics (via Google Tag Manager) to understand how the site is used — pages visited, approximate location from your IP address, and device or browser type. If you accept advertising cookies, Google AdSense may use cookies to show and measure ads, including personalized ads based on your browsing activity. Neither of these has any access to the images you compress.
Cookies
We use the following categories of cookies:
- Necessary — remembers your cookie preference. Always active, since it's what lets us respect your choice.
- Analytics — Google Analytics / Google Tag Manager, used to measure site traffic. Only set if you accept.
- Advertising — Google AdSense, used to serve and measure ads. Only set if you accept.
Third-party services
We use Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics, and Google AdSense. These services may set their own cookies and process data according to Google's own privacy policy.
Your choices
You can accept or reject analytics and advertising cookies at any time from the "Cookie preferences" link in the footer. Rejecting cookies does not affect your ability to use the compressor — the core tool works fully without any tracking.
Children's privacy
img-compress is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from them.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
