Welcome to PicDriver (“PicDriver,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), available at https://picdriver.com/.
Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected when you visit PicDriver, use our photography calculators, image-editing tools, creative utilities, PicStudio, blog, or other services, and how that information may be used, stored, shared, and protected.
By using PicDriver, you acknowledge the practices described in this Privacy Policy.
1. About PicDriver
PicDriver provides free photography, camera, image-editing, creative, calculation, conversion, and related browser-based tools.
Many PicDriver tools are designed to perform processing directly within your web browser using technologies such as JavaScript, Canvas, WebAssembly, or WebGL. When a tool operates entirely in your browser, files you select for that tool do not need to be uploaded to PicDriver’s servers for processing.
Certain advanced tools or optional features may use online or third-party processing services. Where this occurs, information or files required to perform the requested function may be transmitted over the internet.
2. Information We May Collect
PicDriver may collect limited information when you use the website.
Information collected automatically may include your IP address, browser type, device type, operating system, referring page, pages visited, approximate geographic region derived from your IP address, date and time of access, interaction data, and other standard technical information sent by your browser.
This information may be collected through server logs, analytics services, cookies, local storage, advertising technologies, or similar mechanisms.
We generally do not require you to create a PicDriver account simply to use our free browser-based tools.
3. Images and Files You Process
Many PicDriver tools allow you to select photographs, images, screenshots, or other files from your device.
Local Browser Processing
Where a tool is described as using local, browser-based, or client-side processing, the relevant editing or calculation is performed on your device.
PicDriver does not intentionally receive or permanently store the contents of files that are processed exclusively within your browser.
Closing or refreshing the page may remove temporary browser data associated with such tools unless your browser has stored information locally.
Optional Online or Cloud Processing
Some tools may offer features that require communication with an external server, API, AI model, cloud-processing service, or other third-party technology.
If you choose such a feature, the image, file, prompt, metadata, or other information needed to provide the service may be transmitted to the relevant processing provider.
Where practical, PicDriver will identify when a feature requires online processing.
The treatment, retention, and deletion of information processed by a third-party service may also be governed by that provider’s privacy policy and terms.
You should avoid uploading highly confidential, sensitive, or legally restricted material to any online-processing feature unless you understand and accept how that feature operates.
4. Image Metadata and EXIF Information
Some PicDriver tools are designed to read or work with image metadata, including information such as camera model, lens details, exposure settings, date information, dimensions, GPS information, or other EXIF/IPTC metadata.
For locally processed tools, this information may be analyzed entirely within your browser.
You should be aware that photographs can contain identifying or location-related metadata. If you download, publish, or share an image containing metadata, that information may remain accessible to others unless it has been removed.
5. Information You Voluntarily Provide
If you contact PicDriver, submit feedback, send an inquiry, or otherwise communicate with us, we may receive information such as your name, email address, message contents, attachments, and any other information you choose to provide.
We may use this information to respond to your request, provide support, investigate technical problems, improve PicDriver, prevent misuse, or maintain records of our communication.
6. Cookies and Similar Technologies
PicDriver and third-party services used by PicDriver may use cookies, browser storage, pixels, scripts, or similar technologies.
These technologies may be used to remember preferences, measure website traffic, understand how visitors use PicDriver, maintain security, prevent abuse, improve performance, manage consent preferences, and support advertising.
Some browser-based tools may also use local storage, IndexedDB, session storage, or similar browser technologies to temporarily preserve settings or processing information.
You can control or delete many cookies and locally stored items through your browser settings. Disabling certain storage technologies may affect some website features.
7. Analytics
PicDriver may use analytics services, including services provided by Google or other analytics providers, to understand website usage and improve performance.
Analytics providers may process information such as your IP address, approximate location, device information, browser information, visited pages, referring sources, session activity, and interaction data.
Where required by applicable law, analytics technologies that require consent will be activated according to your consent choices.
8. Advertising and Google AdSense
PicDriver may display advertisements provided by Google AdSense and other advertising partners.
Third-party advertising vendors, including Google, may use cookies or similar technologies to serve, measure, limit, or personalize advertisements.
Google states that third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve advertisements based on a user’s previous visits to a website or other websites, and that Google’s advertising cookies may enable Google and its partners to personalize ads.
You may manage personalized advertising through Google’s advertising settings and, where available, through the privacy or consent controls displayed on PicDriver.
Advertising partners may process information according to their own privacy policies.
9. Consent Management
Visitors in some jurisdictions may be shown a consent-management interface allowing them to accept, reject, or manage certain uses of cookies, advertising technologies, analytics, or personal information.
Where PicDriver uses Google advertising products for users in the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or Switzerland, applicable Google publisher requirements may require the use of a Google-certified Consent Management Platform for certain advertising activities.
Your consent choices may be stored so that the website can remember your preferences.
You may be able to change those preferences later through the site’s privacy or cookie settings.
10. How We Use Information
Information collected through PicDriver may be used to operate and maintain the website, provide requested tools and functionality, diagnose errors, monitor performance, improve usability, understand traffic patterns, prevent fraud or malicious activity, respond to communications, comply with legal requirements, measure advertising, and support website development.
We do not use files processed entirely inside your browser for unrelated purposes because those files are not intentionally transmitted to PicDriver in the first place.
11. How We Share Information
PicDriver does not sell uploaded photographs or image content as a business model.
We may disclose limited information to service providers that help us operate the website, such as hosting companies, analytics providers, advertising partners, security providers, content-delivery networks, cloud-processing services, or API providers.
We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, legal process, court order, government request, protect the rights or safety of PicDriver or others, investigate fraud or abuse, enforce our Terms of Service, or protect website security.
If PicDriver is involved in a merger, acquisition, reorganization, asset sale, or similar transaction, information associated with the service may be transferred subject to applicable law.
12. Third-Party Websites and Services
PicDriver may contain links to third-party websites or services, including application stores, social networks, Amazon, photography resources, advertising services, and other external websites.
When you leave PicDriver, the privacy practices of the destination website apply.
PicDriver is not responsible for the privacy practices, security, availability, or content of third-party websites.
We recommend reviewing the privacy policy of any third-party service before providing personal information.
13. Browser Permissions
Certain tools may request access to browser-supported features such as files stored on your device, camera access, clipboard functionality, downloads, or other browser capabilities.
Your browser and device control these permissions.
Granting a browser permission does not automatically mean that PicDriver permanently stores the information involved.
You may revoke browser permissions through your browser or operating-system settings.
14. Data Retention
We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary to operate the website, resolve disputes, maintain security, comply with applicable legal obligations, or enforce agreements.
Files processed exclusively in your browser are not intentionally retained by PicDriver servers.
Information processed through third-party online services may be subject to the retention policies of those providers.
Server logs, analytics information, advertising data, and communications may have different retention periods depending on the service involved and applicable requirements.
15. Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures intended to protect information associated with PicDriver.
These may include HTTPS encryption, browser-based processing, access controls, security monitoring, and other protective measures.
However, no website, internet transmission, storage system, or third-party service can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
You use PicDriver and transmit information over the internet at your own reasonable discretion.
16. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on where you live, applicable privacy laws may give you rights concerning your personal information.
These may include the right to request access to personal information, request correction, request deletion, object to or restrict certain processing, withdraw consent, request a copy of certain data, or opt out of certain advertising or data-sharing activities.
Where such rights apply, you may contact PicDriver through our Contact page.
We may need to verify your request before responding.
Some rights are subject to legal exceptions and may not apply in every circumstance.
17. California and Other U.S. State Privacy Rights
Residents of California and certain other U.S. states may have additional privacy rights under applicable state laws.
Depending on the law and PicDriver’s activities, these rights may include access, correction, deletion, portability, and the ability to opt out of certain uses of personal information for targeted advertising, sale, or sharing.
PicDriver will process valid requests as required by applicable law.
Where required, applicable privacy controls or consent mechanisms may also provide a method to communicate your preferences.
18. Global Privacy Control
Where technically supported and legally required, PicDriver may recognize browser-based privacy preference signals such as Global Privacy Control (GPC) for applicable processing activities.
The effect of these signals depends on the jurisdiction and the services operating on the website.
19. International Visitors
PicDriver is available internationally.
As a result, information processed by website infrastructure or third-party service providers may be handled in countries other than the country in which you live.
Privacy and data-protection laws may differ between jurisdictions.
Where required, service providers are expected to use appropriate mechanisms for international transfers of personal information.
20. Children’s Privacy
PicDriver is intended as a general photography and creative-tools website and is not specifically directed at children under the minimum age required to provide consent under applicable privacy law.
We do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children in violation of applicable law.
If you believe that a child has provided personal information to PicDriver improperly, please contact us so that we can review the matter.
21. Downloaded and Generated Content
When you download an image, graphic, calculation result, generated file, or other output from PicDriver, that file becomes stored on your device according to your browser’s download settings.
You are responsible for protecting files after they are downloaded and for ensuring that your use of generated or edited content complies with applicable laws and third-party rights.
22. Security Logs and Abuse Prevention
PicDriver or its infrastructure providers may automatically process technical information when necessary to identify malicious traffic, excessive automated requests, attacks, unauthorized access attempts, spam, or abuse.
Such information may include IP addresses, request headers, timestamps, URLs, device characteristics, and security-event information.
This information may be retained where reasonably necessary to maintain website security.
23. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when PicDriver’s tools, technology, service providers, advertising practices, legal obligations, or privacy practices change.
When we make changes, the revised policy will be posted on this page, and the “Last Updated” date will be changed.
We encourage visitors to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
Continued use of PicDriver after an updated Privacy Policy becomes effective indicates that you have had an opportunity to review the revised policy.
