Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2025

Your Images Never Leave Your Device

All image conversion happens locally in your browser using JavaScript. Your files are never uploaded to our servers. We cannot see, access, or store your images.

How Our Converter Works

UnHEIC is a client-side application. This means:

  • When you select an image, it stays on your device
  • Conversion is performed by JavaScript running in your browser
  • The converted image is created locally on your device
  • Downloaded files come directly from your browser, not a server
  • Closing the browser tab clears all image data from memory

We collect minimal data to improve our service:

Analytics Data (Anonymous)

Local Storage

We may use your browser's local storage to save preferences (like dark mode settings). This data stays on your device and is never sent to our servers. You can clear this data at any time through your browser settings.

Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services:

None of these services have access to your images, as they are processed locally in your browser.
