Privacy Policy

Our unequivocal promise: We do not use your data, we do not store your files, and we will never sell your personal information.

Our Absolute Privacy Guarantee

  • We will NOT use your data: Your photos are never analyzed, indexed, trained on AI models, or inspected.
  • We will NEVER sell your data: We do not sell, rent, license, or trade your personal info or files to any third party, broker, or advertiser.
  • Zero Server Uploads: Conversions happen 100% client-side inside your browser's local memory.

1 Introduction & Scope

At ConvertHEICtoPDF (accessible from https://convertheictopdf.com), your privacy is our highest priority. This Privacy Policy explains how our website operates and details our zero-data collection architecture. By accessing or using our website, you agree to the principles detailed in this document.

2 How Conversion Works (Client-Side Architecture)

Traditional online file converters force users to upload their images to external cloud servers where they are queued, processed, and stored on remote hard drives.

convertheictopdf.com operates differently:

  • We utilize client-side WebAssembly (WASM) and HTML5 Canvas APIs.
  • When you drop or select a HEIC/HEIF file, it is loaded directly into your computer or smartphone's volatile memory (RAM).
  • The conversion into PDF, JPG, PNG, WEBP, AVIF, BMP, GIF, ICO, PSD, or TIFF is executed entirely by your device's CPU/GPU.
  • No file or image byte ever traverses the internet or reaches our web servers.

3 We Do Not Use Your Data

Because files remain local to your browser sandbox:

  • We do not view, analyze, copy, or scan your photos.
  • We do not extract EXIF metadata (GPS coordinates, camera models, dates).
  • We do not use your photos to train machine learning or artificial intelligence models.
  • We do not log file names, image dimensions, or file contents.

4 We Will Never Sell Your Data

Under data privacy regulations including the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA/CPRA), the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), and similar statutes worldwide:

"We have never sold personal data. We do not sell personal data. We will never sell, rent, disclose, or trade any user data or uploaded files to any data brokers, advertising networks, or third parties for monetary or other valuable consideration."

5 Cookies, Analytics, and Local Storage

Our commitment to user privacy extends to website navigation:

  • No Tracking Cookies: We do not deploy invasive cross-site tracking cookies or fingerprinting scripts.
  • Local Storage: We only use your browser's local storage to remember your chosen user interface language (e.g., English, Spanish, Arabic) for convenience. This data remains strictly on your device.

6 GDPR & CCPA Compliance by Architecture

By designing a system where zero user data or imagery is received or stored on our servers, convertheictopdf.com complies with the world's most stringent privacy frameworks by default. You are never at risk of server-side data breaches, leaks, or subpoena disclosures regarding your private photos.
