How it works

Every tool on this site runs inside your web browser. When you select images, your browser reads them, resizes and compresses them on your own phone or computer, and hands the results back to you. Our code never uploads your images.

What happens to a photo

1. Your browser reads the file you chose. Nothing is sent anywhere.
2. A background worker decodes the image, turns it upright, and resizes it to your rule.
3. It saves the image at the highest quality that fits your size limit, then checks the result: size, dimensions, format and DPI.
4. Location, camera and editing details are removed from the saved file unless you turn that off.
5. You download the result. When you close the tab, the images are gone from memory.

Check it yourself

1. On a computer, open your browser's developer tools (F12, or right-click and choose Inspect) and select the Network tab.
2. Use any tool on this site with a photo.
3. Look through the requests. You will see the page's own files, the image codecs it loads, and small analytics messages, but no request carrying your image.

What we do send

To improve the tools we measure how they are used: settings, results, timings, and technical details of each file such as its format, size in bytes, dimensions, camera model and whether it carried location tags (yes or no only). We never send the image itself, its file name, its location, the date it was taken, or any serial number or personal name. The privacy policy lists everything.

The site is paid for by advertising. Ad scripts from Google run on the same page as the tools, as on any site with ads; they are not part of the resizing and are covered by Google's own policies.
