Privacy Policy

AiMetaOff inspects and cleans supported image and PDF files in your browser. This policy explains how the tool handles your files and what information is involved when you visit the site.

Files processed in your browser

You can choose a supported image or PDF through the file picker or drag it into the workspace. The tool automatically starts inspecting supported metadata when you add a file. Your browser reads the file locally and runs the inspection and cleanup code in a browser worker. The tool does not send file bytes, names, previews or extracted metadata to our servers or to a remote verification service.

When you start cleanup, the tool processes the supported metadata categories you select and prepares a separate output file. Your original stays unchanged. The download is generated in your browser and saved through your browser’s download controls. Review the output before sharing it. Cleanup covers supported metadata and can leave other sensitive information in the file.

The workspace keeps selected files, reports and prepared outputs in memory. It can stay active during supported navigation in the same tab. Reloading the page starts an empty workspace. You can also remove individual files or clear the queue. The app does not save the workspace in persistent browser storage. Copies you have already downloaded stay wherever you saved them. See the FAQ for more about supported files and cleanup.

Website requests and security

Your browser sends requests for pages, scripts and other resources needed to display the site and run the tool. These requests include an IP address and technical information such as the path requested and browser headers. These details allow the site to respond to your requests. If you block the requests needed to load the site, the affected pages or features may be unavailable. Selecting a file is optional and is needed only to inspect or clean that file.

Hosting and security services may process technical request information when delivering or protecting the site. The production logging, retention and recipients have yet to be confirmed.

Cookies and local storage

Your browser can store your theme choice on this site and use it again on later visits. The language selector can also save the language you choose. The address of the page determines the language you see. The saved language value is not used to restore your language automatically.

You can clear these settings with Reset preferences on the Cookies and preferences page or by clearing this site’s data in your browser settings. Resetting preferences returns the theme to the system setting. It leaves the current page language as set by its address.

The tool itself does not set cookies or use advertising or analytics identifiers.

Analytics and advertising

The current tool does not run advertising or analytics. This describes the application itself. Any production hosting features are subject to a separate review.

How long information is kept

The active workspace lasts in memory as described above. Theme and language settings have no expiry set by the app and can remain until you reset them or your browser clears them.

Your privacy rights

Where the GDPR applies, you can ask for access to your personal data and correction of inaccurate information. Depending on the circumstances, you can also ask for erasure or restriction, object to processing or request a portable copy of data you provided. If we rely on consent, you can withdraw it without affecting processing that took place before withdrawal.

You can lodge a complaint with a data protection authority, including in the EU country where you usually live or work, or where you believe an infringement occurred.

Changes to this policy

We will post the updated policy and its effective date on this page. Where required, we will tell you about significant changes before they take effect.
