Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how heictopng.io (“we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our website.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, remember preferences, and provide analytics to site owners.

2. How We Use Cookies

heictopng.io is designed to be a lightweight, privacy-friendly tool. Since your HEIC-to-PNG conversion happens entirely in your browser and no files are ever uploaded to our servers, we do not use cookies to process or store your images.

We may use a limited number of cookies for the following purposes:

• Essential cookies: Required for basic site functionality, such as remembering your cookie consent preference.
• Analytics cookies: We may use privacy-conscious analytics tools to understand aggregate traffic patterns (e.g., number of visitors, popular pages, general geographic region) so we can improve the Service. These cookies do not identify you personally.
• Performance cookies: Used to help us understand how the site loads and performs across devices and browsers.

Note: as the specific analytics or advertising tools integrated into heictopng.io are finalized (e.g., Google Analytics, Plausible, etc.), this section should be updated to name the exact providers and link to their respective privacy policies.

3. We Do Not Use Cookies to Track Your Files

Because image conversion is 100% client-side, no cookie on heictopng.io is used to store, transmit, or associate your converted files with you in any way.

4. Third-Party Cookies

We do not knowingly sell or share cookie data with third parties for advertising purposes. If any third-party service (such as an analytics provider) sets its own cookies on our site, those cookies are governed by that provider’s own privacy and cookie policies.

5. Managing Cookies

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically:

• Delete existing cookies,
• Block cookies from specific or all websites, and
• Set your browser to notify you when a cookie is being set.

Please note that blocking essential cookies may affect the functionality of some parts of the website, though it will not affect your ability to convert files, since conversion does not depend on cookies.

6. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the tools we use or for legal and regulatory reasons. Please check back periodically for updates.
