Privacy Policy

ClearCut AI ("we", "the Service") provides an AI-powered background removal tool. This page explains what happens to the photos you upload and what data is collected.

1. What we process

When you upload a photo and click "Remove Background", the image is sent from your browser to our own server, which forwards it to a third-party AI image processing provider to generate an initial result — this data transfer is required to provide the service. A final transparency step then runs on your own device. Beyond returning the result to your browser, we do not display your photo anywhere else or share it with any other third party.

2. We do not permanently store your photos

Our own infrastructure does not write uploaded or generated images to a database or persistent storage. Images exist only for the duration of the request needed to process them.

3. Third-party AI processing and model training

We currently use a third-party AI provider's service to process your uploaded photo. Under its terms, submitted images may be used by that provider to train and improve their models. We do not control or have visibility into how long that data is retained on their side.

If this concerns you, please do not upload photos that contain identity documents, financial information, or other sensitive personal data.

4. The local processing step

The final transparency step runs inside your own device's browser and does not involve any further upload or transmission of image data.

5. Cookies and local storage

We use your browser's localStorage to remember your language and light/dark theme preference, and Cache Storage to cache the model file needed for processing. No tracking cookies or analytics identifiers are set by this site.

6. Changes to this policy

We may update this page as the Service or its underlying AI provider changes. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
