Privacy & Security Policy
BasicCrop is designed from the ground up to respect your confidentiality. Learn how we handle your image data completely within your browser.
The Privacy Promise
"Your images stay on your device. BasicCrop processes files directly in your browser and does not upload your images to our servers."
100% Client-Side Processing
Unlike traditional design tools that require uploading your high-resolution photographs to remote cloud lakes for resizing and compilation, BasicCrop executes all operations inside your local browser memory sandbox. We do not run image decoding, cropping, or compression API services on a server.
Local Browser Cache (IndexedDB)
Your projects, configurations, and raw source image blobs are persisted in the browser's local sandbox storage using IndexedDB. This database remains strictly sandboxed to the basiccrop.com origin. No other website can access this data, and it is never transmitted over the network.
Minimal Privacy-Conscious Analytics
We prioritize data minimization. We only collect generic telemetry events (e.g. "application loaded", "export completed", "ZIP exported") to improve the application. We explicitly prohibit the tracking of:
- Uploaded image contents or thumbnails
- Your uploaded filenames or project descriptions
- Dimensions and coordinate parameters linked to specific projects
- Your device clipboard data
