File processing and privacy

Non-AI tools process files locally in your browser without uploading them or requiring an account. AI tools use remote processing and are clearly labeled. Files are uploaded only after you explicitly confirm; local tools never switch to cloud processing automatically.

Free tools process files in your browser without uploading them. Paid AI tools upload only with your consent. Images use private storage and temporary links for AI processing. Originals expire 24 hours after upload or their latest task submission and stay available while processing. Results expire 7 days after creation. Expired files enter automatic cleanup. The AI provider has its own retention policy.
