Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 15, 2025

Our Privacy Promise

At VijayPanditNoir, we genuinely care about your privacy. We built this site because we were frustrated with tools that uploaded your personal photos to unknown servers. That is why every single one of our image tools processes your files directly in your browser. Your images never leave your device, and we literally cannot see them.

This page explains in simple terms what information we collect, how we use it, and how you stay in control.

Information We Collect

Your Images

We do NOT collect, store, upload, or transmit any images you process on our site. All image editing happens entirely in your browser using your device's processing power. When you close the browser tab, your images are gone from our tools completely.

Usage Information

We collect anonymous usage statistics to understand how people use our site. This includes which pages are visited, how long people stay, what browser and device types are used, and general geographic regions. This data is aggregated and cannot identify you personally.

Contact Information

If you contact us through our contact form or email, we collect the information you provide (name, email, message) solely to respond to your inquiry. We do not add you to marketing lists or share this information with anyone.
