Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 26, 2025

1. Our Commitment to Privacy

At ExifX.com ("ExifX", "we", "us", or "our"), your privacy is our priority. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your data when you use our metadata removal service.

2. Data We Collect

We collect minimal data to provide our service:

• Uploaded Files: Files you upload to remove metadata (e.g., EXIF, IPTC) are stored temporarily on our servers until you download them, after which they are deleted.
• IP Address: We may collect your IP address to track which files belong to you during your session.
• Email Address: If you register an account, we collect your email to manage your account and provide service-related communications.

3. How We Use Your Data

We use your data solely to:

• Process your files to remove metadata and provide anonymized downloads.
• Track file ownership during your session (via IP address).
• Manage your account and send service-related updates (via email, if registered).
• Improve our service through aggregated, anonymized analytics.

We never sell, share, or use your data for marketing or any purpose beyond providing ExifX.

4. Data Storage and Security

Uploaded files are stored temporarily and deleted after you download them. We use end-to-end encryption for file uploads and downloads. IP addresses and email addresses (if provided) are stored securely and protected with industry-standard measures. However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Data Retention

Files are deleted immediately after download. IP addresses are retained only for the duration of your session. If you have an account, your email is stored until you delete your account. You can request account deletion by contacting us.

6. Your Rights

You have the right to:

• Access or delete your account data (e.g., email).
• Contact us to inquire about your data or request its removal.

Email [email protected] to exercise these rights.

7. Third Parties

We do not share your data with third parties, except as required by law or to protect our service (e.g., responding to legal requests).

8. Cookies

We may use minimal cookies to manage sessions and preferences (e.g., dark/light theme). These are not used for tracking or advertising.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy and will notify users via the website. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
