Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 21, 2026
1. Overview
Emote Resizer ("we", "us", "our") is a free online tool for resizing and compressing emote images. Your privacy is extremely important to us. This policy explains what data we collect and how we handle it.
2. Static Image Processing
When you upload static images (PNG, JPEG, WebP), all processing happens entirely in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Your images are never sent to any server. We do not see, store, or have access to your static files at any point.
3. Animated GIF Processing
Animated GIF resizing requires specialized tools that cannot run in a browser. When you upload a GIF:
- Your file is temporarily sent to our processing server over an encrypted HTTPS connection.
- The file is processed in memory and the result is returned to your browser.
- Your original file is immediately and permanently deleted after processing. We do not retain any copies.
- No GIF files are ever logged, cached, or stored on disk.
4. Analytics & Cookies
We may use privacy-respecting analytics (such as Google Analytics) to understand general usage patterns (e.g., page views, browser types). These tools may set cookies. We do not use cookies for advertising or user tracking across websites.
5. Data We Do NOT Collect
- We do not require registration or sign-up.
- We do not collect personal information (name, email, etc.).
- We do not sell, share, or monetize any user data.
- We do not use third-party advertising networks.
6. Third-Party Services
Our website uses the following third-party services:
- Google Fonts — for loading web fonts. Google may receive your IP address when fonts are loaded.
- Analytics — for anonymous, aggregated usage statistics.
7. Security
All network communication between your browser and our servers (if applicable) is encrypted using TLS/HTTPS. We follow security best practices to protect any data in transit.
8. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Continued use of the service constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
