1. Data Collection and Use
1.1. User Files (Images) - **Core Privacy Commitment**
**We do not collect or store your uploaded image files.** The conversion and compression processes are primarily performed on the **client-side** (in your web browser) using JavaScript. If server-side processing is strictly necessary for a specific feature, files are:
- **Temporary:** Held only for the duration of the conversion.
- **Immediate Deletion:** Automatically and permanently deleted from our servers immediately after the converted file is delivered to you or after a short timeout (e.g., 5 minutes).
- **Non-Inspection:** We do not inspect, copy, or use the content of your files for any purpose.
1.2. Personal Information
The only personal information we collect is:
- **Email and Name:** Collected *only* if you voluntarily use the "Sign Up" modal to receive news or updates. This data is managed securely via email (or a third-party mailing service, if applicable) and is not linked to your file usage.
1.3. Usage Data (Analytics)
We collect general information about how the service is accessed and used ("Usage Data"). This data may include information such as your computer's IP address, browser type, pages visited, and the time and date of your visit. This is used solely for service improvement and statistical analysis.
