Privacy Policy

Last Updated: July 15, 2025

Introduction

At Screenshot-Editor.net, we are committed to protecting your privacy. Screenshot Editor is a free online tool that allows you to annotate and edit screenshots directly in your browser. We believe in transparency about our data practices, and this Privacy Policy explains our minimal data collection approach.

The best part about Screenshot Editor is that we do not require any registration or login, and we do not store your screenshots or annotations. All image processing happens locally in your browser, ensuring your content remains completely private.

Information We Do Not Collect

To be clear about our privacy-first approach:

No Account Required: We do not require registration or login to use our service
No Image Storage: Your screenshots and annotations are never uploaded to our servers
No Personal Information: We do not collect names, email addresses, or any other personal identifiers
No Payment Information: Screenshot Editor is completely free with no paid features

Information We Collect

We collect only minimal, non-personal information to maintain and improve our service:

Technical Data

Browser Information: Browser type and version for compatibility purposes
Device Information: Basic device type (desktop/mobile) to optimize the user interface
Usage Analytics: Anonymous data about which tools and features are used most frequently

Cookies

We use essential cookies only for:

User Preferences: Remembering your selected language and theme settings
Tool Settings: Storing your preferred stroke width, colors, and other tool preferences
Session Management: Maintaining your workspace during a single browser session

All cookies are stored locally in your browser and can be cleared at any time through your browser settings.

How Your Screenshots Are Processed

All image processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript and HTML5 Canvas technology. This means:

Your images never leave your device
We cannot see or access your screenshots
There is no server-side processing or storage
Your annotated images are only saved when you explicitly download them to your device

Third-Party Services

We use minimal third-party services:

Analytics: We use privacy-focused analytics to understand general usage patterns (no personal data collected)
Content Delivery Network (CDN): To deliver our website files quickly and reliably

These services may collect basic technical information like IP addresses, which are subject to their respective privacy policies.

Data Security

Since we don't collect or store personal data or user content, there is minimal security risk. However, we still implement best practices:

HTTPS Encryption: All connections to our website are encrypted
Regular Security Updates: We keep our website and dependencies updated
No Data Transmission: Your images remain on your device throughout the editing process

Your Rights

Since we don't collect personal information, traditional data rights (access, deletion, correction) don't apply. However, you always have control:

Clear Browser Data: You can clear cookies and local storage at any time through your browser
Block Cookies: You can disable cookies, though this may affect your preference settings
Use Private Browsing: For maximum privacy, use your browser's private/incognito mode

Children's Privacy

Screenshot Editor does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children under 13. Since we don't collect personal data, children can safely use our tool under appropriate supervision.

International Users

Screenshot Editor is accessible worldwide. Since all processing happens in your browser and we don't collect personal data, there are no international data transfer concerns.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally. Updates will be posted on this page with a new "Last Updated" date. Since we don't collect contact information, we cannot notify users directly of changes.
