Welcome to Compress JPG ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our websitecompressjpg.io (the "Site") and use our image compression services.
By accessing or using our Site, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not access or use the Site.
1. Information We Collect
1.1 Information You Provide Directly
Compress JPG is designed to work entirely in your browser without requiring user accounts or personal information. We do not require you to sign up, create an account, or provide any personal information to use our image compression services.
1.2 Images and Files
When you use our service to compress images, all processing occurs locally in your browser. Your images are not uploaded to our servers and remain on your device throughout the entire compression process. We do not store, access, view, or retain any of the images you compress using our service.
1.3 Automatically Collected Information
When you visit our Site, we may automatically collect certain information about your device and usage, including:
- Browser type and version
- Operating system
- IP address (anonymized)
- Pages visited and time spent on pages
- Referral source
- Device type and screen resolution
- General location information (country/region level only)
1.4 Cookies and Tracking Technologies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your experience on our Site. Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help us remember your preferences and understand how you use our Site. You can control cookie settings through your browser preferences.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect for the following purposes:
- To provide and maintain our image compression service
- To improve and optimize our Site's performance and user experience
- To analyze usage patterns and trends
- To detect and prevent technical issues, fraud, or abuse
- To comply with legal obligations
- To communicate with you regarding service updates or inquiries (if you contact us)
3. How We Share Your Information
Since we do not collect or store your images or personal information, we have very limited data to share. We may share automatically collected information in the following circumstances:
3.1 Service Providers
We may share information with third-party service providers who assist us in operating our Site, such as web hosting providers, analytics services, and content delivery networks. These providers are contractually obligated to protect your information and use it only for the purposes we specify.
3.2 Legal Requirements
We may disclose information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities, such as a court order or subpoena.
3.3 Business Transfers
In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, user information may be transferred as part of that transaction.
3.4 With Your Consent
We may share information with third parties when we have your explicit consent to do so.
4. Data Security
We take the security of your information seriously. Since all image compression occurs in your browser and your images never leave your device, the risk of unauthorized access to your files is minimized. We implement industry-standard security measures to protect any data we do collect, including:
- Secure HTTPS encryption for all data transmission
- Regular security audits and updates
- Limited access to any collected data
- Secure infrastructure and hosting environments
However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure. While we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
5. Client-Side Processing
One of the core features of Compress JPG is that all image compression happens directly in your web browser using JavaScript. This means:
- Your images never leave your device
- We cannot access, view, or store your images
- Your images remain completely private and secure
- Compression works offline once the page is loaded
- No data is transmitted to our servers during the compression process
6. Third-Party Services
Our Site may contain links to third-party websites or integrate third-party services for analytics or other purposes. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third-party services. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party sites you visit.
Third-party services we may use include:
- Analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to understand usage patterns
- Content delivery networks (CDNs) to improve site performance
- Error tracking and monitoring services

- Objection: The right to object to our processing of your personal information

Since we do not collect personal information or store your images, most of these rights are not applicable. However, you can control cookies through your browser settings and contact us with any privacy concerns.

Our service is not directed to individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Your information, including any automatically collected data, may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your country of residence. These countries may have different data protection laws. By using our Site, you consent to the transfer of your information to these countries.
10. Data Retention
Since we do not store your images or require account creation, there is no user-generated content to retain. Any automatically collected usage data is retained only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, typically no longer than 26 months, unless a longer retention period is required by law.
11. Do Not Track Signals
Some web browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that signals to websites that you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Our Site does not currently respond to Do Not Track signals, but you can control tracking through your browser settings and cookie preferences.
