Do my photos get uploaded to ImgKit servers?
For tools labeled as browser-side, your photos are processed on your device and never sent to ImgKit servers. Server-assisted features are clearly documented on their respective pages.
Privacy
This policy describes how ImgKit collects, uses, stores, and protects information when you use gift.harpd.com, Gift Studio, browser-based image tools, or Pro access features.
For tools labeled as processing locally in the browser, the image files you select are handled entirely on your device. Those files are not uploaded to ImgKit servers and are not retained after your session ends.
When you use Gift Studio, your photo, message, and design choices are used to generate a preview and, if you purchase, a finished download. Photos are processed transiently during the preview or download session and are not stored permanently on ImgKit infrastructure.
When you create an account or purchase a Pro download, we collect your email address, order details, and access entitlement. This data is used to deliver your purchase, handle support requests, and manage your account.
ImgKit may collect anonymized page view data, tool usage events, and download conversion events through privacy-conscious analytics. This data does not include personally identifiable information and is used to understand which features are useful and where the site can be improved.
When you contact support at support@gift.harpd.com, we receive the information you provide including your email address and message content. This is used solely to respond to your request.
ImgKit uses the information described above to:
ImgKit does not use your information for behavioral advertising, and does not sell or rent personal data to third parties.
Payment for Pro downloads and memberships is processed by Stripe. Card numbers and payment details are entered on Stripe's secure payment forms and are not transmitted to or stored on ImgKit servers. ImgKit receives confirmation of a completed payment (an order ID and entitlement status) but not the underlying card data.
Stripe's privacy practices are described at stripe.com/privacy.
ImgKit may use the following categories of cookies and local storage:
You can clear cookies and local storage at any time through your browser settings. Clearing essential cookies will log you out of Pro access.
Account data and order records are retained for as long as your account is active and for a period after closure sufficient to meet legal and support obligations. Anonymized analytics data may be retained indefinitely in aggregated form. Support communications are retained for a reasonable period to allow follow-up.
Uploaded images and gift previews are not retained on ImgKit infrastructure beyond the session in which they are generated.
Depending on your location, you may have the right to:
To exercise any of these rights, email support@gift.harpd.com with your account email address and a clear description of your request. Requests will be acknowledged within 5 business days and fulfilled within 30 days unless legal obligations require a longer period.
ImgKit is not directed at children under the age of 13. ImgKit does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe that a child under 13 has provided personal information through ImgKit, please contact support@gift.harpd.com and the information will be removed.
ImgKit uses a limited set of third-party services to operate the platform. Key providers include:
Each provider handles data according to its own privacy policy. ImgKit selects providers with appropriate data protection standards and does not share data with providers beyond what is necessary for the service they perform.
ImgKit may update this policy when features change, new services are added, or legal requirements evolve. The last-updated date at the top of this page reflects the most recent substantive revision. Continued use of ImgKit after a policy update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
