Privacy Policy
Last updated: March 22, 2026
Overview
PixelTuneup ("we", "us", or "our") operates the website pixeltuneup.com (the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information when you use our AI image upscaling tool. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about our practices.
Information We Collect
We collect minimal information necessary to provide the Service. When you use our image upscaling tool, your image is temporarily transmitted to our processing infrastructure solely for the purpose of upscaling. We do not permanently store, log, or retain any images you upload. We may collect standard server logs including IP addresses, browser type, and pages visited for security and rate limiting purposes. These logs are retained for a maximum of 30 days.
How We Use Your Information
We use the information we collect to provide and operate the Service, enforce daily usage limits to prevent abuse, protect against automated bot traffic and misuse, and improve the performance and reliability of the Service. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.
Image Processing
Images you upload are transmitted securely to our AI processing provider to perform the upscaling operation. Images are processed in real time and are not stored after processing is complete. We do not use your images to train AI models. We do not view, analyze, or access the content of your images beyond what is technically necessary to deliver the upscaled result.
Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services to operate the Service: Replicate (replicate.com) for AI image processing — please refer to their privacy policy for details on their data practices. Cloudflare for security verification and bot protection — Cloudflare may collect anonymized browser and behavioral signals to determine if a visitor is human. Google AdSense for displaying advertisements — Google may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website or other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ad Settings.
Cookies and Tracking
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to operate the Service. Essential cookies are used for security verification (Cloudflare Turnstile) and session management. Advertising cookies may be set by Google AdSense to serve relevant advertisements. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Service.
Data Retention
Uploaded images are deleted immediately after processing is complete and are never stored on our servers. Server logs including IP addresses are retained for up to 30 days for security purposes and then automatically deleted. We do not maintain any database of user activity beyond what is described above.
Children's Privacy
The Service is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to delete such information.
Your Rights
Depending on your location, you may have rights regarding your personal data including the right to access, correct, or delete your personal information. Since we do not store images or maintain user accounts, most data requests can be addressed by simply not using the Service. For any data-related requests or questions, please contact us at the email address below.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify users of significant changes by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the Service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
