Privacy Policy
Effective date: May 4, 2026
Overview
GIF Cutter ("we," "our," or "us") operates the website at www.gifcutter.com. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your choices regarding your data.
Information We Collect
GIF Cutter is a client-side application. All video processing happens locally in your browser using WebAssembly. We do not upload, transmit, or store your video files or generated GIFs on any server.
Google Sign-In (Optional)
If you choose to sign in with Google, we receive your name, email address, and profile picture from Google. This information is stored exclusively in your browser's local storage and is never sent to our servers.
Promo Codes
If you redeem a promo code, the code is stored in your browser's local storage to persist your premium access. No promo code usage data is sent to any server.
Cookies and Tracking
We do not use cookies, analytics services, tracking pixels, or any form of user tracking. We do not run third-party advertising scripts.
Local Storage
We use your browser's local storage to save your session (if signed in) and promo code status. You can clear this data at any time through your browser's settings or by signing out.
Third-Party Services
If you use Google Sign-In, Google's own privacy policy applies to the authentication process. We recommend reviewing Google's Privacy Policy for details on how they handle your information.
Data Security
Because all processing happens in your browser and no data is transmitted to our servers, your files remain under your control at all times. We implement Cross-Origin Isolation headers to ensure a secure browser environment.
Children's Privacy
GIF Cutter is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised effective date.
