At Spiral Tool, we are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal information. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard information when you use our free online image editing tools.

🔒 Privacy First Approach

Your images never leave your device. All image processing happens locally in your browser using advanced web technologies. We cannot see, access, or store any images you edit with our tools.

  • Results are generated locally and can be downloaded immediately
  • No copies are made on our servers at any point
