Privacy Policy

Last updated: 11 November 2026

This policy explains how PrivacyKit currently works and what information it handles.

Your Photos and Edits

Cropping, covering, MRZ detection, watermarking and file creation take place in your browser. PrivacyKit has no photo-upload feature. It does not send, store, access or log your photos, edits, file names or text appearing in your images. Your current work is lost when you close or reload the page.

Camera

If you take a photo, your browser asks for camera permission. The camera feed is used within the page and is not uploaded or stored by PrivacyKit. Photos you take are processed like photos you select. On mobile devices, the camera app may open and is subject to your device and operating system settings.

Information Stored on Your Device

If you select a language, its code is saved in your browser’s local storage so the same language can be used next time. PrivacyKit does not store other settings or documents there. You can remove the language preference by clearing the site’s data in your browser.

Cookies and Analytics

PrivacyKit does not set cookies and currently uses no analytics or advertising. If this changes, we will update this policy first and request consent where required. The editor does not include advertising or third-party tracking scripts.

Hosting and Access Logs

PrivacyKit is a static website. Its hosting provider may process technical access logs, such as IP addresses, requested pages, access times and browser information, to deliver and secure the site. These logs do not include your photos or edited files. The provider’s policies govern how such records are handled and retained.

Data Retention

PrivacyKit does not retain your photos or edits. Your language preference remains in your browser’s local storage until you remove it. Hosting access logs are retained according to the hosting provider’s policies.

Your Rights and Contact Details

PrivacyKit does not directly retain personal data extracted from your photos. For questions about this policy or requests to exercise rights such as access, rectification or erasure, contact hello.privacykit@gmail.com. Please do not include photos or ID numbers in your email.

EU/EEA Privacy Rights (GDPR)

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, rectify or erase personal data; restrict or object to processing; request data portability; and lodge a complaint with a data protection authority. PrivacyKit does not collect your photos, but its hosting provider may process access logs. The service has not yet undergone an independent legal review or certification for GDPR or other legal compliance.

Using the Tool Safely

Use only your own documents that you have the right to share. This tool cannot verify authenticity or prevent later changes to saved files. Covering details and adding watermarks can reduce risks but cannot eliminate them.

Policy Changes

If this policy changes, we will update the date shown above.
