In effect since November 11, 2026.
The short version: I Love To Edit cannot see the pictures and videos you edit, because they stay on your device. What we do receive is limited to ordinary website data and anything you choose to write to us. The details follow.
Files you edit
When you pick, drop or paste a file into a tool, your browser opens it locally and produces the result locally. No copy travels to our server or to anyone else, so there is nothing for us to keep, look at or pass on. Closing the tab discards the working copy.
Data that does reach us
- Messages: if you use the contact form, we get the name, email address and text you enter. We use them to answer you and for nothing else.
- Access logs: like every website, our hosting provider notes the IP address, browser, requested page and time of each visit. These records help keep the site secure and running.
Settings such as dark mode are remembered in your own browser storage and are not transmitted to us.
Components loaded from other services
Some tools need large building blocks: the FFmpeg video engine, AI models, fonts and open-source code libraries. Your browser downloads these from public networks, among them jsDelivr, Hugging Face and Google. As with any download, those services learn your IP address and browser type. They receive the request for the component only; your pictures and videos are not part of it.
Advertising, cookies and statistics
The site is paid for by ads and may use Google AdSense to show them, and a statistics service such as Google Analytics to count visits.
- Google and other ad vendors place cookies so that the ads you see can reflect your earlier visits to this site and to other sites.
- You can switch off personalised ads in Google Ads Settings, or for many vendors at once at aboutads.info.
- Visitors from the EU, the UK and other places with consent laws are asked before cookies that are not strictly necessary are set.
- Every browser also lets you refuse or clear cookies yourself.
Your choices and rights
Laws such as the GDPR, the UK GDPR and the CCPA give many people the right to ask what personal data is held about them, to have it corrected or erased, and to object to how it is used. Write to us through the contact page and we will deal with your request.
Younger visitors
The site is aimed at a general audience, not at children under 13, and we do not knowingly gather personal data from them.
Updates to this policy
If the way the site works changes, this page will be revised and the date at the top will change with it.
