At No Background, we prioritize the privacy and security of our users. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use our service. By accessing or using the No Background service, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Policy.

2. Information We Collect

We collect minimal information necessary to provide our background removal service. The following details explain the types of information we may collect:

  • Uploaded Images: All images uploaded to our service are anonymized. We do not store any identifiable metadata associated with the image files, and the images are not linked to any user account or personal data.
  • Usage Data: We collect non-personally identifiable data such as browser type, device information, and usage statistics to improve our service and maintain its security.
  • Cookies: Our website uses cookies to manage sessions and preferences. You can disable cookies through your browser settings, but doing so may affect your experience with our service.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Provide and improve our background removal services.
  • Monitor usage patterns to optimize performance and ensure service availability.
  • Comply with legal obligations, where necessary.

4. Image Handling and Anonymization

We are committed to protecting your privacy. All images uploaded to No Background are processed anonymously. No personally identifiable information is attached to uploaded images, and they are deleted after processing unless otherwise specified (e.g., in case of paid tiers for image storage features).

Images are temporarily stored on our servers only for the duration required to complete the background removal process. Once processing is complete, images are promptly deleted.

5. Data Security

We take security seriously and implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to safeguard your data from unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. This includes encryption, regular security audits, and access controls.

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.

6. Sharing Your Information

We do not sell, trade, or share your personal data with third parties, except in the following circumstances:

  • If required by law or to comply with legal processes.
  • To protect our rights, property, or safety, or that of our users or the public.
  • To trusted service providers (e.g., cloud hosting) who assist us in delivering the service, provided they comply with strict privacy and security standards.

7. Your Rights

As a user of the No Background service, you have the right to:

  • Request access to the data we hold about you (if applicable).
  • Request the correction or deletion of any personal information (though uploaded images are anonymized and not tied to personal data).
  • Withdraw consent for data collection at any time by discontinuing the use of the service.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We will notify users of any significant changes through our website.
