Privacy Policy
Last Updated: October 30, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how Passport Photo Maker ("we", "our", or "the Website") handles information when you use our online passport and visa photo utility.
1. Photo Processing & Local Browser Execution
Our core photo editing, face detection, cropping, background replacement, and print-sheet generation tools operate locally within your web browser on your device using HTML5 Canvas and client-side JavaScript. We do not upload, transmit, or store your photographs on our servers. When you click "Clear Photo", "Start Over", or close your browser tab, the temporary image data in your browser's memory is discarded.
2. Information We Collect
- No Account Required: You do not need to register, log in, or provide your name or email address to use the Passport Photo Maker tool.
- Voluntary Contact Information: If you contact us via email at contact@example.com, we receive your name, email address, and message contents solely to respond to your enquiry.
- Technical & Usage Data: If analytics or advertising services are enabled by the website administrator, standard device metadata (such as browser type, operating system, referring page, anonymized IP address, and interaction events) may be collected by those services.
3. Cookies, Analytics & Advertising
While the core photo processing happens locally on your device, this website may use cookies or similar local storage technologies for essential site preferences, traffic analytics (such as Google Analytics using placeholder ID [GA_MEASUREMENT_ID]), and contextual or personalized advertisements (such as Google AdSense). Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites.
4. Third-Party Services
If optional third-party libraries, content delivery networks (CDNs), analytics providers, or advertising networks are active on the host site (including Blogger/Blogspot hosting infrastructure if hosted on Blogger), their respective privacy policies govern the technical log data they collect.
5. Data Retention & Security
Uploaded photos are never retained by us because they never leave your device. Any preferences stored in your browser's local storage can be cleared at any time through your browser settings or via our "Start Over" button.
6. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your jurisdiction (including India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act, GDPR, or CCPA), you have the right to request access to, correction of, or deletion of any personal correspondence you have sent to us, and to opt out of non-essential analytics or advertising cookies.
7. Children's Privacy
While parents and guardians may use this tool on their own devices to prepare passport or school application photos for children, our website does not knowingly collect personal information directly from children.
8. Policy Updates & Contact Information
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time and will revise the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. For any privacy questions, contact [WEBSITE_OWNER] at contact@example.com.
