Privacy Policy
Effective date: June 1, 2026
★ Security & privacy at a glance
- All editing happens in your browser. Your photos, PSDs, ORAs, and templates never leave your computer. We do not have a server that processes your images.
- Your license key stays local. The 16-character key lives only in your browser's localStorage and inside the portable HTML file you download. We don't store a copy of it on our side.
- License check is offline. The editor verifies your license locally — no online activation call, no phone-home, no device-locking.
- Imported SVGs and template packs are sanitized. Any embedded scripts, event handlers, or external references are stripped before the editor renders them.
- Uploaded files are signature-checked. The editor verifies that opened files match their claimed type before parsing, so a malformed file can't trigger unexpected behavior.
- Strict Content Security Policy. Every page on photoeditrocket.com restricts what scripts can load, where data can flow, and what origins can embed us.
- No tracking pixels in the editor. Visit analytics live only on the marketing pages; the editor itself ships no third-party scripts beyond what's listed below.
PhotoEditRocket ("we", "our", or "us") operates the website at photoeditrocket.com and distributes the PhotoEditRocket desktop and web application. This policy explains what data we collect, why we collect it, and how you can control it.
1. Local-first design
PhotoEditRocket is built as a local-first application. All image editing — layers, masks, filters, exports — happens entirely in your browser or on your local device. Your photos and project files are never uploaded to our servers during normal editing use. We do not have access to the images you edit.
2. Information we collect
Website analytics. This website uses Google Analytics (via Google Tag Manager) to collect anonymised usage data: pages visited, session duration, device type, and approximate geographic region. This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally. You can opt out using the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on or by blocking analytics scripts in your browser.
Purchase information. When you buy a license, payment is processed by Stripe. We receive a Stripe session ID and your email address from Stripe so we can generate and deliver your license key. We do not collect or store your card details — those remain with Stripe under their PCI-compliant environment.
Support communications. If you contact us by email or through the contact form, we receive your name, email address, and message. We use this information only to respond to your request.
Download logs. Our hosting provider may log IP addresses and download requests for security and bandwidth monitoring. These logs are retained according to our host's standard log-rotation policy.
3. How we use your information
We use data to: (a) deliver the software and license key you purchased; (b) respond to support requests; (c) understand aggregate usage of this website so we can improve it; and (d) comply with legal obligations. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties.
4. Cookies and tracking
This website sets analytics cookies (Google Analytics) and may set a session cookie for the contact form. We do not use advertising tracking cookies. You can manage cookies through your browser settings.
5. Third-party services
We use the following third-party services whose privacy policies govern data they collect independently:
- Google Analytics / Google Ads — usage analytics and conversion tracking (policies.google.com/privacy)
- Stripe — payment processing (stripe.com/privacy)
- Our hosting provider's infrastructure logs
6. Data retention
We retain purchase records (email address + license key) as long as you may need to request license recovery. Support emails are retained for a reasonable period to maintain context. Analytics data is retained according to Google Analytics default settings (up to 14 months). You can request deletion of your personal data at any time by emailing us.
7. Your rights
Depending on where you are located, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you, or to object to certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, email support@photoeditrocket.com. We will respond within 30 days.
8. Children
PhotoEditRocket is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when our practices change. We will update the effective date at the top of this page. Continued use of the website or software after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
