PRIVACY & COOKIES · UPDATED 1 OCTOBER 2026
Your files.
Your choices.
This policy covers tidy.onl and its Square Images, Print Size Check and Photo Privacy Check tools.
Files you select
Our tool code reads and processes the images you select in your browser. It does not upload their contents or extracted metadata to Tidy, Cloudflare or Google. Selected files and results are kept in the page’s working memory; refreshing or closing the page clears that working session. Downloads you save remain on your device. We do not offer accounts or a server-side file history.
The metadata cleaner removes supported JPEG metadata; it does not remove visible faces, addresses, filenames or information hidden inside image pixels. Each tool explains its formats and limits. Keep your original files.
Website delivery
Cloudflare hosts these sites. Requests for pages, scripts, styles and sample images include ordinary connection information such as your IP address, browser details, requested URL and time. Cloudflare may process request logs for delivery, security and diagnostics. Its automatically included browser performance beacon can also send page URLs, referring URLs and loading-performance measurements to Cloudflare. This performance service does not use cookies or persistent browser storage. These requests are separate from the selected-image processing. Cloudflare’s privacy policy explains its practices.
Advertising and cookies
These sites integrate Google AdSense to support free access. Ads may not appear while Google reviews the site or when no ad is available. Loading Google’s advertising and consent services sends ordinary technical information, including your IP address, browser information and page origin, to Google and its partners.
Google and other advertising providers may store or read cookies and similar identifiers. Subject to your choices and applicable requirements, Google and its partners can use visits to this and other websites to personalize ads, measure advertising and prevent fraud. The tools do not intentionally send selected filenames, image contents, extracted photo metadata or print settings as advertising parameters.
See how Google uses information from partner sites, Google’s advertising information, and Google’s ad technology providers. Apart from Cloudflare’s delivery and performance services, we have not added a separate analytics service.
Your choices
Where Google’s consent message is shown, you can consent, decline consent, or manage the purposes and advertising partners. Use the Privacy and cookie settings link supplied by Google on those pages to revisit your choice. Choosing not to consent does not disable the image tools. Depending on your location and settings, limited ads may still be available.
In supported US states, Google’s Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information link lets you opt out of the sale or sharing of personal data for advertising. These choices apply to Google’s advertising services on the site; selected-file processing remains local.
You can also manage personalized Google advertising in My Ad Center or use the industry choices at YourAdChoices. Your browser can block or clear cookies. Blocking advertising scripts does not prevent the tools from running.
Changes
We will update this page when the site’s data handling or advertising services change. The date above identifies this version. File-handling details on each tool remain part of this explanation.
