Privacy Policy

Last updated: July 1, 2026

Introduction

Image Pipeline ("we", "our", "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information when you use our service at imagepipeline.art.

Image Privacy

We do not collect, store, or process your images.

All image processing happens client-side in your browser using WebAssembly and the Canvas API. Your images never leave your device.

We have no access to the images you process, and they are never transmitted to any server.

Information We Collect

We collect minimal anonymous usage analytics to improve the service:

Page views and navigation patterns
Feature usage (button clicks, node types used)
Processing performance metrics (file count, processing time)
Error events for debugging

Information We Do NOT Collect

Personal identification information (name, email, address)
Account credentials (no accounts exist)
Uploaded images or their metadata
IP addresses (anonymized only)
Cookies for tracking purposes

Payment Data

All payments are processed via USDT (TRC-20) cryptocurrency. We only record the transaction ID (TxID) to verify payment. No banking details, credit card numbers, or personal financial information is collected or stored by us.

Local Storage

We use localStorage in your browser to store:

Usage counters for rate limiting
Pipeline drafts for auto-save functionality
Theme preferences
License activation status

This data stays in your browser and is never sent to our servers.

Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

Vercel — hosting and analytics. See Vercel's privacy policy for details.
TronScan API — USDT transaction verification. Only TxID is submitted.
GitHub — open-source repository hosting.

Data Retention

Since we do not collect personal data or images, there is nothing to retain. Usage analytics are stored in aggregated, anonymized form and retained indefinitely for trend analysis.

Your Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction (e.g., GDPR, CCPA), you may have the right to:

Request information about data we hold about you
Request deletion of your data
Object to data processing

To exercise these rights, contact us at vimarkart@gmail.com.

GDPR Compliance

As a service available to EU users, we comply with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Our processing is based on legitimate interests (service improvement) and consent (analytics). All data processing is limited to what is strictly necessary for the service to function.

CCPA Compliance

California residents have the right to know what personal information is collected and to request deletion. We collect no personal information under CCPA definitions.

Children's Privacy

Our service is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect any information from children.
