Welcome to Img to Icon ("we", "us", "our"). This Privacy Policy explains how we handle information when you visit imgtoicon.com or use the image to icon converter. The page is written for visitors who want to understand what happens when they choose an image, preview icon sizes, download favicon.ico and PNG files, contact support, or browse the surrounding help content.
1. Browser-based conversion
The basic image to icon conversion runs locally in your browser. Your selected image is processed on your device to generate icon previews and downloadable files such as favicon.ico, PNG icons, Apple Touch Icon files, PWA icons and manifest assets. For the normal converter workflow, the image to icon converter does not need to upload your source file to our server to create those outputs.
Local processing is useful when the source image is a client logo, unreleased app mark, private product symbol, personal avatar or draft design. You should still avoid selecting images that you are not allowed to use, but the converter is designed so the core resize, crop, padding and export steps happen in the browser session.
2. Information we may collect
- Usage data: Pages visited, browser type, device information, referral sources, approximate location and timestamps.
- Technical logs: IP address, error logs and security events needed to operate and protect the site.
- Support communications: Messages you send to our support email, including any contact details you choose to include.
- Preference signals: Browser settings, language signals and basic interaction events that help us understand whether the image to icon converter is usable.
We do not ask you to create an account for basic conversion. If a future feature adds accounts, paid plans or server-side storage, this policy should be updated before those features are used for personal data.
3. How we use information
- Operate, maintain and improve Img to Icon.
- Understand which converter features and pages are useful to visitors.
- Protect the site from abuse, spam and security issues.
- Respond to bug reports, corrections, feedback and support requests.
- Improve page performance, accessibility, mobile layout and download reliability.
For example, aggregate usage data can show whether visitors reach the converter, whether the size guide is helpful, or whether a browser error affects the image to icon converter. Support messages can help us reproduce an issue with a PNG, JPG, WebP or SVG source file. We use that context to improve the tool, not to build a profile of your private artwork.
4. Cookies and analytics
We may use necessary cookies and analytics tools to understand site performance and visitor behavior. Analytics may record page views, device category, browser version, approximate region, referral source, session timing and interaction events. These signals help us find broken layouts, slow pages and confusing steps in the image to icon converter.
You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking analytics may not prevent the converter from working, but some site measurement features may become less accurate. Necessary security, hosting or cache behavior may still occur because those systems keep the website available.
5. Sharing and disclosure
We do not sell personal information. We may share limited information with hosting, analytics, security, email or legal service providers only when needed to operate the website, measure performance, prevent abuse, respond to support requests or comply with law. Those providers may process data according to their own terms and privacy commitments.
We may disclose information if required by legal process, if needed to protect the site and users, or if the site is transferred as part of a business transaction. In each case, we aim to share only what is reasonably necessary for the specific purpose.
6. Data retention
We retain usage logs and support communications only as long as reasonably needed for site operation, security, analytics, support and legal compliance. Support messages may be kept long enough to resolve a bug report or product request. Server logs may be kept for security review and then deleted or aggregated. We do not intentionally retain source images from the ordinary image to icon converter workflow because the basic conversion is handled in the browser.
7. Your rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to certain personal information. You may also have the right to withdraw consent where processing depends on consent. To make a request, contact [email protected]. We may need enough information to verify the request and locate the relevant records.
If you only used the image to icon converter without contacting us, there may be little or no personal content for us to identify beyond ordinary technical logs and analytics data.
8. Children's privacy
Img to Icon is a general audience website. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent personal information through support email or another channel, contact us so we can review and delete it where appropriate.
9. External links
The site may link to external resources, standards, browser documentation, app icon references or related tools. External websites have their own privacy practices, and we are not responsible for their policies. Review those policies before sending information to another service.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy by changing the effective date and content on this page. Updates may be needed when the site changes hosting providers, analytics tools, support workflows, paid features or converter behavior. Continued use of the site after a policy update means the updated policy applies to future use.
11. Image handling reminders
The image to icon converter is designed for icon generation, not for permanent image hosting, backup or asset management. Keep your own copy of the source image and downloaded output files. Close the browser tab or clear browser data if you do not want the local session to retain temporary previews. Do not rely on the converter as the only place where an important logo or favicon package exists.
You are responsible for the images you choose to process. Avoid using logos, marks, photos or artwork that you do not have permission to modify or publish. Privacy and intellectual property are separate issues: local processing helps protect a private file from unnecessary upload, but it does not create usage rights for someone else's design.
12. Security notes
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to operate the website, monitor abuse and reduce common security risks. No website can promise perfect security, and browser-based tools still depend on your device, browser and network environment. Keep your browser updated, download files only from pages you trust, and contact us if the image to icon converter behaves unexpectedly.
