This Privacy Policy explains how xpacto ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, discloses, and safeguards your information when you visit https://www.xpacto.com ("Website"). By using the Website, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.
1. What We Do
xpacto provides free online image tools that run entirely in your browser (client-side). All processing—including compressing, converting, resizing, cropping, watermarking, QR code generation, filters, merging, batch renaming, and EXIF metadata extraction—happens directly on your device. Your files are never uploaded to our servers. We do not store, access, or share your image files.
2. Information We Collect
Because our services run locally in your browser and no file uploads occur, we collect no personal files or images. However, we may collect limited non-personal information for analytics and performance improvements, such as:
- Browser type and version
- Operating system and version
- Language settings
- Time and date of access
- Usage statistics (e.g., which tools you used, session duration)
- Referral source (where you came from)
Log Files
Like many other websites, xpacto makes use of log files. The information inside the log files includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date/time stamp, referring/exit pages, and possibly the number of clicks. This information is used to analyze trends, administer the site, track user's movement around the site, and gather demographic information. IP addresses and other such information are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable.
This data is anonymized, contains no personal identifiers, and cannot be used to identify you individually.
