Privacy policy

Last updated: 31 October 2026

The short version: your images are converted and never stored. Vectacle has no accounts, sets no cookies and shows no ads. Below is everything the site does, in plain words.

Your images

On most computers, an image you open in Vectacle is read and converted by code running in your own browser, and the SVG and every other file you download are created on your device.

On phones, tablets and slower computers a picture may be converted on our server (run on Cloudflare) because it’s faster there. It is sent over an encrypted connection, processed in memory and deleted as soon as the SVG is sent back. It is never stored or used for anything else, and we don’t look at it.

Either way, we keep no copy of your images or results. Closing the tab removes them from the page.

Anonymous usage numbers

We count anonymous usage numbers (e.g. a conversion happened, how long it took, which download format, rough device type and country). No images, file names, IP addresses, cookies or personal data are collected.

In detail, the page sends a short note to our own server when you view a page, open an image, a conversion finishes, fails or is stopped, you download or copy a result, you rate a result with a thumbs up or down (only the rating, never the picture), or you use a viewer button. The note says only things like the mode, the number of colours, the image size range (in megapixels), whether the edge-sharpening step ran and the time it took, plus your browser type, phone or computer, and the country Cloudflare sees the request coming from. For page views it also records the name of the site that linked to us (for example google.com), not the full address. These numbers are kept for 13 months and then deleted. They help us find what is slow or broken.

To count visits rather than single page views, each browser tab gets a random visit number, kept only in that tab and forgotten when you close it. It is not a cookie and is not linked to you. If you arrive from a link with a campaign tag (for example from Pinterest), we note that tag too.

What is stored on your device

Vectacle saves a few settings in your browser’s local storage so the page looks the same next time: light or dark theme, the preview layout, whether the pixel view is on, and a speed estimate used for the progress bar. These never leave your device. You can delete them by clearing site data in your browser. We use no cookies.

Services the site uses

To load the page, your browser connects to these services. Each one receives the usual technical details any website gets (your IP address, browser type and the file requested). Only Cloudflare handles images, and only for the server conversion described above.

If you email us

If you write to info@vectacle.com, we receive your email address and whatever you send. We use it only to answer you, and we delete it when it is no longer needed. Please don’t attach private images unless you want us to look at them.

What we don’t do

We don’t sell or share personal data, we don’t run advertising trackers, and we don’t use your images to train anything.

Your rights

Because Vectacle doesn’t keep your images or create accounts, we hold almost no personal data about you. If you have emailed us, you can ask us to show you or delete what we have. Write to info@vectacle.com.

Changes

If Vectacle adds accounts or payments later, this page will be updated before those features go live, and the date at the top will change.
