Privacy Policy

Effective date: 12 July 2026

🔒 Your photos never leave your browser

This is the most important thing to know: all face detection, background removal, and image processing in ICAO Photo Studio, Background Remover, and Portrait Enhancer runs entirely on your device using WebAssembly and in-browser AI models. Your photo is never uploaded to, transmitted to, or stored on any of our servers — we have no way to see it, even if we wanted to.

Verify it yourself in 10 seconds

Don't just take our word for it. You can confirm that your photo never leaves your browser using tools already built into your browser:

  1. Open your browser's DevTools (press F12, or right-click anywhere on the page and choose "Inspect").
  2. Click the "Network" tab.
  3. Upload a photo on the Studio, Background Remover, or Portrait Enhancer page and let it process.
  4. Watch the Network tab — you will not see any request containing your image data. Every request you see is for this page's own code and AI models, never your photo. There is no upload endpoint for us to send it to in the first place.

1. What we collect

Because photos are never sent to a server, there is very little for us to collect. Specifically:

2. No accounts, no email required

You do not need to create an account or provide an email address to use any tool on this site. After a successful payment, a small flag is written to your browser's local storage to remember that you've unlocked lifetime access — nothing is tied to your identity, and no personal profile is created.

3. Cookies & local storage

We use localStorage in your browser to remember whether you've already paid, so you don't have to pay again on your next visit from the same browser/device. Google Analytics may set its own cookies to distinguish unique visitors and sessions. We do not use advertising or cross-site tracking cookies.

4. Third-party services

5. Data retention & deletion

Since we never receive your photo, there is nothing for us to delete on our side. If you clear your browser's local storage or switch devices, your lifetime-access flag is removed along with everything else — this is outside of our control since it never touched our servers in the first place.

6. Children's privacy

This service is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

7. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the effective date above.
