Privacy Policy

1. Scope

This Privacy Policy applies to the imglab website at imglab.app and the image tools and informational pages made available through it. It does not apply to websites or services operated by third parties, even when imglab links to them.

2. Images used with standard browser tools

Standard tools process the image you select locally in your browser. The selected image and generated result are held by your browser and device for the active workflow. imglab does not receive a copy of that image through the standard local-processing workflow.

Local processing does not mean that a browser can handle every file. Large dimensions, complex files, limited device memory, or unsupported codecs can prevent processing. Closing or refreshing the page normally clears the active in-memory workflow, but downloaded files remain wherever you save them.

3. AI image tools

AI tools that require cloud processing upload the selected image to a processing service and identify that behavior before processing. Uploaded files are removed after the processing purpose is complete, typically within 24 hours, unless a longer period is required for security, abuse prevention, legal compliance, resolving a user-requested support issue, or another reason disclosed by that tool.

An AI tool may provide additional information about its processor, processing location, or retention behavior when those details differ from this general policy. Do not upload an image that you are not authorized to process.

4. Information collected when you visit

The website host and network infrastructure may process standard technical information needed to deliver and secure the site, such as an IP address, request time, requested URL, response status, browser information, and security-related events.

5. Website analytics

We may use Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity to understand how visitors use imglab and improve the website. These services may collect information about your device, browser, approximate location, pages visited, and interactions such as clicks and scrolling. Microsoft Clarity may also record how you interact with pages.

Analytics services may use cookies or similar identifiers to measure visits and usage patterns. We do not intentionally send the contents of images you select for local processing to analytics providers.

You can manage cookies through your browser settings, including blocking or deleting them. Blocking cookies may limit some website features and does not necessarily prevent all analytics data collection. Google and Microsoft explain how they handle data in their respective privacy policies.

6. Support communications

If you email [email protected], imglab receives the information you include, such as your email address, message, attachments, and related correspondence. That information is used to respond, troubleshoot, prevent abuse, and maintain an appropriate support record. Avoid sending private images or sensitive personal information unless it is necessary and you understand the risk.

7. Cookies and local storage

We use cookies and browser storage to support website features and remember your preferences. Analytics providers may also use cookies or similar technologies to understand website usage. Hosting and security services may use cookies or other storage to operate and protect the site. You can manage or clear stored data in your browser settings.

8. How information is used

Information received by imglab may be used to provide and secure the website, remember privacy choices, respond to support, diagnose failures, understand website usage, prevent abuse, comply with legal duties, and improve available tools. imglab does not claim to sell personal information and does not use locally processed image content for advertising.

9. Service providers and disclosures

Information may be processed by hosting, security, email, analytics, and AI-processing providers only as needed for their applicable function. Information may also be disclosed when reasonably necessary to comply with law, protect rights or safety, investigate abuse, or support a business reorganization.

10. Retention

Locally processed images are not retained by an imglab server through the standard tool workflow. Analytics data is retained according to the retention settings and policies of the services we use. Support messages are kept only as long as reasonably needed for support, security, recordkeeping, and legal obligations. AI uploads are removed typically within 24 hours, subject to the exceptions and tool-specific notice described above.

11. Security

imglab uses reasonable technical and organizational measures appropriate to the service. No website, transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure. Local processing reduces server transfer for supported standard tools but does not remove risks on the user’s own device, browser, extensions, network, or downloaded-file location.

12. International visitors and privacy rights

imglab serves a global audience. Depending on your location, you may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, or information about certain disclosures. You may also have the right to withdraw consent where data processing is based on consent. Applicable rights and exceptions vary by jurisdiction.

Send a request to [email protected] with “Privacy Request” in the subject line. imglab may need to verify the request and cannot retrieve image files that were only processed locally and never received.

13. Children

imglab is not directed to children under 13, and optional Microsoft Clarity tracking must not target users known to be under 18. Do not submit personal information or use upload-based tools on behalf of a child without appropriate authority and any required consent.

14. Changes

This policy may be updated as tools, providers, legal requirements, or data practices change. The “Last updated” date will be revised when a material update is published. An AI tool may include a more specific notice when its upload or retention behavior differs from this policy.

15. Contact

Privacy questions and requests may be sent to [email protected].
