This Privacy Policy explains how the ZeroPeach team (“we”, “us”), operator of ZeroPeach (the “Service”), handles information when you use the Service. This is a plain-language summary intended to be accurate to how the product works; it is not a substitute for legal review before launch.

1. The short version

• The free resize, compress, and add-text tools run entirely in your browser. The images you edit with these tools are not uploaded to our servers.
• We only store data when you create an account or use optional paid features (such as cloud storage).
• We do not sell your personal information.

2. Information we process

a) Images edited with free tools. Processing happens locally in your browser using the Canvas API. These images stay on your device unless you explicitly download them. We do not receive or retain them.

b) Account information. If you sign up, our authentication provider stores the credentials you provide, such as your email address and a securely hashed password.

c) Stored images (paid tiers). If you use optional cloud storage, the images you choose to upload are stored under your account and processed on our servers only to provide the feature you requested.

d) Technical data. Like most websites, our hosting and infrastructure providers may process limited technical information (such as IP address and browser type) to deliver and secure the Service.

3. How we use information

• To provide and operate the Service and the features you request.
• To authenticate you and secure your account.
• To maintain, troubleshoot, and improve the Service.
• To comply with legal obligations.

4. Service providers

We use third-party infrastructure providers for authentication, storage, and hosting. These providers process data on our behalf under their own security and privacy commitments. We do not sell personal information to third parties.

5. Data retention

Account and stored data is retained for as long as your account is active. You can delete stored images at any time, and you can request deletion of your account and associated data by contacting us.

6. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, export, or delete your personal information, and to object to certain processing. To exercise these rights, or if you have questions about this policy, please reach out through the contact channel published on our About page. A dedicated contact address will be provided as the Service develops.

7. Children

The Service is not directed to children under the age required by law in your jurisdiction, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.

8. Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the “Last updated” date above.

9. Contact

For questions or data requests, please use the contact channel on our About page.

ZeroPeach is an independent project and not yet a registered company. Jurisdiction and a dedicated contact address will be added as the Service develops. Review this policy with a qualified professional before relying on it in production.
