At BulkPicTools, we consider user privacy our highest priority. This Privacy Policy is designed to clearly explain how we handle information when you use our website and tools.
Our Core Promise: Your Files Never Leave Your Device
BulkPicTools is different from traditional online image editors. We utilize advanced WebAssembly (WASM) technology, which allows all image processing operations (Batch Crop, Compress, Convert, etc.) to run directly on your own device (in your browser).
This means:
- Zero Uploads: Your images are never transmitted to our servers or any cloud storage.
- Zero Storage: We cannot view, copy, or store your images because they never leave your computer.
- 100% Private: Our tools function securely even without an active internet connection (offline mode).
Information We Collect
1. Automatically Collected Non-Personal Information
To maintain website operation and optimize performance, we may collect minimal, anonymous network access logs via Cloudflare Pages. This data is used solely for security protection and traffic statistics, including:
- Browser type and version
- Access origin (Country/Region level only)
- Page load speeds and error reports
We do not use cookies to track your personal browsing history for our own purposes, nor do we sell user data. However, our advertising partner, Google AdSense, may use cookies and similar technologies for ad personalization and measurement as described below.
2. Information You Voluntarily Provide
When you use our "Contact Us" page to submit feedback or bug reports:
- We use Web3Forms to collect your submission.
- We will receive your email address (if provided) and the content of your message.
- This information is used solely to respond to your inquiries or improve the product and is not used for marketing purposes.
Third-Party Services
To provide our service, we rely on the following trusted third-party infrastructure:
- Cloudflare Pages: Our website is hosted on Cloudflare's global network. Cloudflare may log access data to ensure network security (e.g., preventing DDoS attacks). View Cloudflare Privacy Policy
- Web3Forms: Used to handle contact form submissions. Your submission data is processed via Web3Forms' secure API and forwarded to our email. View Web3Forms Privacy Policy
- Google AdSense: We display advertisements served by Google AdSense. Google and its advertising partners may use cookies, device identifiers, and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites, measure ad performance, and limit the number of times you see an ad. Google may collect data such as your IP address, browser type, device information, and approximate location to deliver and personalize ads. You can learn more about how Google uses this data, and manage your ad personalization settings, at Google's Privacy & Terms site and Google Ads Settings.
Your Consent Choices (EEA, UK, and Switzerland)
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, you will be shown a consent banner when you first visit our website. Through this banner, you can:
- Consent to the use of cookies and personal data for ad personalization, or
- Decline / Manage options to limit data collection to what is strictly necessary for the site to function, or only allow non-personalized ads.
You can change your choice at any time by clicking the "Manage Cookie Preferences" link in the footer of this website. We use a Google-certified Consent Management Platform (CMP), integrated with the IAB Europe Transparency and Consent Framework (TCF), to collect and honour your choices.
Your Privacy Rights (US State Residents)
If you are a resident of California or another US state with a comprehensive privacy law (including but not limited to Colorado, Connecticut, Virginia, Utah, Indiana, Kentucky, and Rhode Island), you may have the right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of your personal information for targeted advertising purposes.
You can exercise this right at any time via the "Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information" link in the footer of this website. Submitting this request will disable ad personalization for your browser on this site.
Use of Cookies
BulkPicTools uses Local Storage or Cookies for the following purposes:
- Functional Storage: Remembering your preferred language or Dark Mode settings, and remembering your cookie consent choice so we don't ask you again on every visit.
- Advertising: We work with Google AdSense, which may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to serve ads, including personalized ads where you have given consent. Where required by law, we will only enable these cookies after you provide consent through our cookie banner. You can manage or withdraw your consent at any time via the "Manage Cookie Preferences" link in the footer, or by adjusting your browser's cookie settings.
Children's Privacy
Our services are not directed to children under the age of 13. Since we process files locally and do not require account registration, we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. We do not knowingly serve personalized ads to children, and our ad partner is required to comply with applicable child privacy laws such as COPPA.
Verify Our Claims
We are an open and transparent project. Technical users can verify our privacy claims independently:
- Open your browser's "Developer Tools" (Press F12).
- Switch to the "Network" tab.
- Perform any image processing operation on our site.
- You will observe that zero image data traffic is sent to external servers.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in laws or product features. Material changes will be posted prominently on this page. Your continued use of the website constitutes your agreement to the revised policy.
