Verifiable privacy

Check it yourself

Every site that handles your files says it respects your privacy, and saying it costs nothing. What matters is whether you can check. Here is how to check this one — in about a minute, without trusting a word on this page.

Watch the network while you work

Press F12, or right-click and choose Inspect, then open the Network tab. Leave it open and use any tool here with a real file.

What you are looking for is a request the size of your file. Sending a five-megabyte PDF somewhere means a five-megabyte request, and there is no way to hide that — not with compression, not in pieces, not later. Sort the list by size if it gets long.

You will not find one. The largest entries are this site's own code and fonts, and, the first time you open a background remover, the model it downloads so it can run on your machine instead of ours.

Then turn the network off

This is the check that cannot be faked. Open a tool once, then switch on airplane mode — or tick Offline in that same Network tab — and use it.

It keeps working. A site that sends your file away cannot do that: with no connection there is nowhere to send it and nothing to send back. Working offline is not a feature sitting on top of the privacy claim, it is the same fact seen from the other side.

Tools you have opened before are on your device and will work. Ones you have never opened are not there yet, and will say so.

What does leave your device

A check is only worth running if you are told what you will find, including the parts that are not zero.

The site itself — pages, code and fonts, requested from this domain the way any website is. Traffic measurement, through Vercel Analytics and Speed Insights: page views and loading times, cookieless and aggregated, with no profile of you in them. Advertising, through Google AdSense, which is why you will see requests to googlesyndication.com in that list; the site asks Google for non-personalised ads for every visitor. And the models, once: about 33 MB for the object remover, kept in your browser afterwards.

What is never on that list is the contents of anything you open with a tool.

What this proves, and what it does not

It proves what this site does now, in your browser, on your machine. It does not prove what it will do next month — so if this matters to you, check again. That is the advantage of a test you can run over a promise you have to accept.

It also does not ask you to trust our code, or to read it. You are not auditing anything we wrote; you are watching your own network, with your own tools, and drawing your own conclusion.
