Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Real Favicon Generator ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you use our website at realfavicongenerator.org. By using the tool, you agree to the practices described below.
1. A privacy-first design
The core of this tool is that it runs entirely in your browser. When you upload an image or type a letter to create a favicon, the image is decoded, rendered, and packaged into your icon kit on your own device. Your source image is never uploaded, transmitted, or stored on our servers.
2. Information we collect
We do not require an account, and we do not collect any personal information such as your name, email address, or IP address through the generator itself.
- Local storage: We store your chosen color theme preference in your browser's
localStorage(key:favicon-theme). This never leaves your device. - Uploaded images: Images you process are kept only in your browser's memory and are discarded when you close or refresh the page. They are not sent to us.
- Log data: As with most websites, our hosting provider may automatically collect standard server logs (such as the pages requested and the date/time) for security and reliability. This data does not identify you personally and is not used for advertising.
3. Cookies
Real Favicon Generator does not set its own tracking cookies. If, in the future, we display third-party advertising or embed third-party services (such as Google AdSense), those providers may set cookies or use similar technologies to serve and measure ads. In that case, their use of data will be governed by their own privacy policies, and we will update this page accordingly.
4. Third-party services
Where we may later integrate third-party services (for example, advertising networks or analytics), those providers may process data independently. We will choose providers that respect user privacy and will list them here as they are added.
5. How we use information
Any limited information we hold is used solely to operate, secure, and improve the website. We do not sell, rent, or trade your information to anyone.
6. Data security
Because your images never leave your device, there is no image data stored on our servers to secure. The site is served over HTTPS to protect the content you view. No method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect the website itself.
7. Children's privacy
The service is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
8. Your rights
Depending on where you live (for example, under the GDPR in the EEA/UK or the CCPA/CPRA in California), you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information about you and to object to certain processing. Because we collect essentially no personal data, these rights are fulfilled simply by not uploading anything to us. To make a request, contact us using the details below.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated date at the top. Material changes will be highlighted on the site.
10. Advertising
We may display third-party advertising on this site through Google AdSense or similar ad networks. Providers may use cookies or similar technologies (such as web beacons) to serve and measure ads and to build profiles of your interests based on your visits to this and other websites. You can opt out of Google's personalized advertising via Google's Ads Settings, and you can control or block cookies through your browser settings. We do not control the data collected by third-party ad providers; their practices are governed by their own privacy policies.
