Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 6, 2026

1. Overview

PixGrid ("we", "our", "us") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding your data when you use our service at pixgrid.io and app.pixgrid.io.

2. Information We Collect

Account Information

If you create an account, we collect your email address and a hashed version of your password. We never store passwords in plain text.

Payment Information

Payments are processed entirely by Stripe. We do not store your credit card number, CVV, or full billing details. We receive only a confirmation of payment, your email, and a Stripe customer identifier.

Images and Content

When you use AI features (background removal, object detection, inpainting), your image is sent to our servers for processing. Images are processed in memory and are not stored after processing is complete. We do not retain, archive, or use your images for any purpose other than delivering the requested result. We do not use your images to train AI models.

Usage Data

We may collect basic usage data such as page views, feature usage counts, and error logs to improve the Service. This data does not include your images or personally identifiable content.

Cookies

We use essential cookies and local storage to maintain your session, remember your preferences, and enable the editor to function. We do not use third-party advertising or tracking cookies.

3. How We Use Your Information

  • To provide and maintain the Service
  • To process payments and manage your account
  • To send transactional emails (account verification, password reset, payment receipts)
  • To monitor and improve Service performance and reliability
  • To detect and prevent fraud or abuse

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

4. Data Storage and Security

Account data is stored in an encrypted database on secure servers. All data in transit is encrypted via HTTPS/TLS. Passwords are hashed using bcrypt. We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your data, but no system is 100% secure.

5. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

6. Data Retention

Account data is retained for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, your personal data will be removed within 30 days, except where retention is required by law (e.g., payment records for tax purposes). Uploaded images are never retained -- they exist only in server memory during processing and are discarded immediately after.

7. Your Rights

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you
  • Request correction of inaccurate data
  • Request deletion of your account and associated data
  • Object to or restrict processing of your data
  • Request a portable copy of your data

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at support@pixgrid.io. We will respond within 30 days.

8. Children's Privacy

PixGrid is not directed at children under 16. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

9. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.

10. Contact

If you have questions about this Privacy Policy or how we handle your data, please contact us at support@pixgrid.io or through our contact page.
