Privacy policy
Last updated:
This policy explains what data is and is not handled when you use ImgSmith at https://xianshen.xyz. The site is operated under the ImgSmith name. For privacy questions or requests, write to 2961884811@qq.com.
The short version
- Images you open in the tools are processed in your browser and are never uploaded.
- There are no accounts, no sign-ups, and no payment details.
- The site is designed to carry advertising through Google AdSense. Google may set cookies and collect data when advertising is enabled.
- The hosting provider may keep standard server logs such as IP address and user agent.
- You can contact the address above to exercise privacy rights.
Image processing happens on your device
The compressor, resizer, watermark tool, converter, social crop presets, and editor decode and encode images using browser APIs. The image data stays in the browser tab. It is not sent to this site's server, because there is no upload endpoint to send it to. Closing the tab discards the working data.
This means the operator cannot see, copy, retain, or delete your images: there is no copy on the server. It also means the site cannot recover a file for you after the tab is closed. Keep your originals.
Advertising
The site is designed to be supported by Google AdSense. When advertising is active, Google and its advertising partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads, measure their performance, and limit how often you see the same ad. In that process, Google may collect information such as your IP address, approximate location derived from it, browser and device information, and the pages you visit on this and other sites.
Advertising is currently enabled in the site configuration. The consent controls required for visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland are described in the cookie policy.
Google explains its own practices here:
- How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services
- Google Privacy Policy
- Google Ad Settings, where you can control personalized advertising
The site does not pass your images, file names, or the contents of your files to Google or to any advertiser. Those files never leave the browser.
Server logs
The site is served by a hosting provider. Like most providers, it may record standard request logs: IP address, user agent, the requested URL, the referring page, the response status, and a timestamp. These logs are used to deliver the site, diagnose errors, and protect against abuse. They are retained for the period set by the hosting provider's policy and are not combined with image data, because no image data reaches the server.
Analytics
No analytics service is currently configured, and no analytics script is loaded. If one is added, this section will name the provider and describe what it collects before the script goes live. The absence of analytics is a deliberate default, not an oversight.
Cookies and similar technologies
Essential storage may be used to remember interface state or consent choices. Advertising cookies, when advertising is enabled, are set by Google and its partners rather than by this site's own code. The cookie policy distinguishes the categories, names the advertising provider, and explains how to withdraw consent.
Legal bases for processing
Where the General Data Protection Regulation applies, the site relies on:
- Consent for advertising cookies and any similar tracking that requires it. You can withdraw consent at any time.
- Legitimate interests in keeping the site available, secure, and free of abuse, which covers basic server logging.
- Legal obligation where a record must be kept to comply with applicable law.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:
- Know whether personal data is processed and receive a copy of it.
- Correct inaccurate data.
- Request deletion.
- Object to or request restriction of processing.
- Receive data in a portable format.
- Withdraw consent for advertising cookies without affecting the lawfulness of earlier processing.
- Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.
To exercise a right, email 2961884811@qq.com with enough information to identify the request. The operator may ask for verification before acting. Requests are handled within the period required by applicable law. If the request concerns advertising data held by Google, Google's own controls and privacy policy apply in addition to this policy.
California privacy rights
If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information is collected, used, or disclosed; to request deletion; to request correction; to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information; and not to be discriminated against for exercising those rights. The site does not sell images, contact details, or account information, and it has no accounts to sell. Advertising cookies set by Google may be treated as "sharing" for cross-context behavioral advertising under California law. You can limit that through the consent controls presented with advertising, when enabled, and through Google Ad Settings. Requests can also be sent to the email address above.
Children's privacy
The site is not directed to children under 13, and the operator does not knowingly collect personal information from children. Because images are processed locally, a child's images are not transmitted to the operator in any case. If you believe a child has sent personal information by email, contact the address above and it will be deleted. Where local law sets a higher age for valid consent to online services, the site is not intended for users below that age.
International transfers
The hosting provider and Google may process data in countries other than your own, including the United States. Where required, those transfers rely on the safeguards described in the provider's and Google's own data processing terms. The site operator does not maintain a separate copy of visitor data to transfer.
Data retention
Images are retained only in the browser tab and disappear when it is closed or reloaded. Server logs are retained according to the hosting provider's policy. Advertising data is retained by Google according to Google's policies. Email correspondence is kept only as long as needed to handle the request and any follow-up.
Security
The site is served over HTTPS. Local processing removes the largest risk in an image tool, which is a server-side copy of the file. No system is perfectly secure, and no guarantee can be made about the security of data in transit or of third-party services such as advertising and hosting.
Changes to this policy
This policy will be updated when the site's data practices change, and the date at the top will change with it. Advertising is the area most likely to require a revision: the policy must be re-checked when ads are enabled and whenever the consent setup changes. Material changes will be reflected on this page rather than announced elsewhere.
