Privacy Policy
At GameImage.tools ("we", "us", or "our"), we respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.
1. Your Files Never Leave Your Device
The core promise of GameImage.tools is local-first processing. All image and document tools on this website (compression, resizing, cropping, format conversion, PDF tools, EPUB conversion, and more) run entirely in your web browser using client-side JavaScript.
- Your images, PDFs, and other files are never uploaded to our servers.
- We cannot see, access, or store any file you process with our tools.
- When you close the page, all data is discarded automatically.
2. Information We Collect
We do not require registration and do not collect personal information such as names, email addresses, or phone numbers.
However, like most websites, we may collect limited, non-identifying information through third-party services:
- Analytics data: anonymous usage statistics (pages visited, approximate location, browser type, device type) collected via Google Analytics or similar services.
- Cookies: small text files stored by your browser. See Section 3 for details.
3. Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use cookies and similar technologies (such as localStorage) for the following purposes:
- Preferences: remembering your language choice (this is stored only in your own browser and is never sent to us).
- Analytics: understanding how visitors use the site so we can improve it.
- Advertising: third-party advertising partners may use cookies to serve ads. See Section 4.
You can disable cookies in your browser settings at any time. All tools will continue to work without cookies.
4. Third-Party Advertising
We may display advertisements served by third-party networks, including Google AdSense. These networks may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it to serve ads based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
- Third-party ad servers or ad networks use technologies like cookies, JavaScript, or web beacons in their advertisements and links that appear on GameImage.tools. They automatically receive your IP address when this occurs.
- GameImage.tools has no access to or control over these cookies used by third-party advertisers.
You can consult the respective third-party privacy policies for more detailed information on their practices and instructions on how to opt out.
5. Analytics Services
We use Google Analytics 4 (measurement ID G-7VTV63NF2Z) to understand how visitors use the site. It collects standard usage data such as pages viewed, approximate location (city level), browser and device type, referring page, and visit duration. This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally. Google may set analytics cookies for this purpose.
You can opt out at any time with the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, or by blocking cookies in your browser settings. Our tools themselves process files locally and never send your images to us or to Google.

- Erasure: request deletion of your personal data.
- Objection / Restriction: object to or restrict processing of your personal data.
- Portability: receive your personal data in a portable format.
- Withdraw consent: withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent.
Because our tools process everything locally, we generally hold no personal files or content from you. To exercise any of these rights regarding analytics or advertising data, please contact us using the information in Section 9.
