How IMG9 handles your images, your data, and your trust
Last updated: April 2026IMG9 is a browser-based image converter, optimizer, and resizer. Every operation you perform, whether converting a photograph to WebP, cropping a banner to a specific aspect ratio, or exporting a set of social media images, executes entirely within your browser using client-side JavaScript. Your image data stays on your device from the moment you select a file to the moment you download the result.
This privacy policy explains exactly what happens when you use img9.net.
When you open an image in IMG9, your browser reads the file directly from your device into its own memory. All conversion, compression, cropping, scaling, filter application, and export rendering happen through your browser. The processed result exists solely in your browser's memory until you choose to download it.
IMG9 transmits zero image data to any server. Your photographs, designs, screenshots, and creative work never leave your machine during any IMG9 operation.
IMG9 claims no rights, licenses, or ownership over any image you process. Your copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, and intellectual property rights remain entirely yours. Because IMG9 operates as a client-side application with no server-side file handling, the platform has no technical mechanism to access, store, copy, or distribute your content.
Every file you open in IMG9 exists only within your browser session. Closing the tab, refreshing the page, or navigating away removes all image data from memory. This makes IMG9 a great choice for handling trade secrets, sensitive business documents, confidential client data, or any information that should not leave your local environment. Because nothing is stored on external servers and all processing happens within your browser session. In practice, IMG9 is especially useful for professionals working with legal documents, financial records, proprietary designs, internal reports, or personal identification files, where privacy and control are critical. IMG9 is also ideal for situations where compliance or security policies require that data remains temporary and fully under your control.
IMG9 places zero cookies on your device. The application runs no analytics scripts, tracking pixels, fingerprinting routines, or behavioral profiling systems.
IMG9 stores exactly one item in your browser's local storage: your preferred color theme (light or dark). This single string value contains no identifying information, never leaves your device, and serves only to preserve your visual preference between visits.
IMG9 loads fonts, a CSS framework, and several JavaScript libraries from external content delivery networks to ensure fast page rendering and reliable functionality across all regions and devices. When your browser fetches these resources, the content delivery network receives a standard HTTP request that typically includes your IP address, browser type, referring URL, and request timestamp.
These third-party services operate under their own privacy policies and data handling practices. IMG9 has no access to and exercises no control over any data these services may log as part of standard content delivery operations.
Your request to img9.net travels through multiple layers of internet infrastructure before reaching your browser. Your internet service provider, DNS resolver, browser vendor, and any network intermediaries along the route may observe connection metadata: the domain you visit, request timing, data transfer volume, and your IP address.
This is standard for every website on the internet. IMG9 has no visibility into, and no control over, what these infrastructure providers record, retain, or process. For details on how your specific providers handle connection data, please consult their respective privacy policies.
IMG9 maintains no databases, user accounts, registration systems, email lists, or server-side file storage. The application collects no personal information, and therefore retains no personal information. Every interaction with IMG9 begins and ends within your browser session.
IMG9 collects no data from any user, regardless of age. Because no personal information is gathered at any point, no special provisions for children's data are necessary. The application is equally privacy-preserving for all visitors.
If this privacy policy is updated, the revised version will be published at this same URL with an updated date in the header. Because IMG9 collects no user data and maintains no contact lists, direct notification of policy changes is not technically possible. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
For questions, concerns, or requests regarding this privacy policy or the operation of IMG9, please refer to the IMG9 Impressum for complete operator identification and contact information.
IMG9 processes your images inside your browser. Your files stay on your device. No data is collected, no cookies are placed, and no tracking occurs. Your images are yours, fully and completely.
