Introduction & Overview

Welcome to XinYuMaTou. We are committed to protecting your personal privacy and being transparent about our data practices. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what choices you have when you visit our website and use our dynamic image frame generator tool. We encourage you to read this policy carefully to understand our approach to privacy and data protection.

Our image animation tool has been designed from the ground up with privacy as a fundamental architectural principle. Unlike most online image tools that require uploading your images to remote servers for processing, our tool performs all image manipulation, animation rendering, and file generation directly within your web browser using HTML5 Canvas and JavaScript technologies. This means that when you upload images to our tool, those images are loaded only into your browser's memory and are never transmitted over the internet to any server.

By accessing or using our Services, you acknowledge that you agree with the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree with our privacy practices, please discontinue use of the Services.

Information We Collect & How We Collect It

Our commitment to your privacy means we intentionally collect very little information. Here is exactly what we collect and how:

Standard Web Server Logs

When you visit our website, our web hosting provider automatically records standard technical information that most web servers collect. This information is logged by default for security monitoring and website traffic analysis purposes and includes:

  • Your device IP address (automatically recorded by web servers for network routing)
  • Browser type and version (used to ensure compatibility and diagnose rendering issues)
  • Operating system type (used for compatibility testing and development prioritization)
  • Pages you visit on our website (used to understand which content and tools are most useful to our users)
  • Date and time of your visit (used for statistical analysis of usage patterns)
  • Referring website addresses (helps us understand how users discover our tools)

This log data is standard for virtually every website on the internet. It is not linked to personally identifiable information and is used only in aggregate form for statistical analysis, security monitoring, and website improvement.

Your Images Are Not Collected

This is the most important aspect of our privacy commitment: the images you upload to our image animation tool are NOT transmitted to us, stored by us, or processed on any server. Instead, images are loaded into your browser memory using the FileReader API, which is a standard browser feature that enables local file operations without network transmission.

When you use our tool:

  • Images are loaded directly into your browser memory from your device
  • All animation effects are computed by your device CPU
  • All preview rendering happens on your graphics processor within Canvas elements
  • Download files are generated within your browser memory
  • At no point is image data transmitted to our servers or any third-party service

This local processing architecture eliminates the privacy risks inherent to cloud-based image tools, where your images could be stored, logged, analyzed, scanned, or shared with third parties by the service provider or their infrastructure partners.

Cookies & Local Storage

We may use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience. A cookie is a small text file that websites store on your device to remember information about your visit and preferences.

Our use of cookies is minimal and privacy-conscious:

  • We may set cookies to remember basic preference settings for return visits
  • We may use local browser storage to remember your cookie consent preference
  • We do not use advertising cookies, tracking cookies, or third-party analytics cookies that would follow you across different websites
  • We do not use cookies to identify individual users or track specific usage behavior
  • You can disable cookies entirely in your browser settings and our tool will continue functioning normally

Information You Voluntarily Provide

If you contact us via email with questions, feedback, bug reports, or feature requests, you may voluntarily provide personal information such as your name, email address, and the content of your message. This information is only used for the purpose of responding to your communication and improving our services based on your input. We do not use email contact information for marketing purposes, nor do we share or sell contact information to third parties.

How We Use Information

The small amount of information we collect is used for very limited purposes:

  • Website operation: Standard web server logs are required for network routing and security monitoring to keep our website online and protected from abuse.
  • Service improvement: Aggregated, anonymized usage statistics help us understand which effects and features are most popular, guiding our development priorities.
  • Technical support: Technical information about browsers and devices may be used when investigating reports of rendering issues or performance problems.
  • Communication: If you contact us voluntarily, we may use your email address to respond to your message.

We do NOT use information for:

  • Advertising targeting or behavioral advertising
  • User profiling or building user profiles
  • Selling or sharing user data with third parties
  • Reselling user data in any form
  • Data mining or machine learning training
  • Image content analysis, moderation, or scanning of any kind

Third-Party Services & Resources

While our image processing is entirely local, our website does load certain standard web resources from third-party services. These resources contain no user image data or personal information:

  • Google Fonts: Our website loads font files from Google Fonts CDN to ensure consistent typography across devices. When your browser loads fonts from Google Fonts, standard HTTP request information (your IP address, browser type) is visible to Google's CDN servers. This is standard behavior for any website loading external web fonts.
  • Web hosting: Our website files are served by standard web hosting infrastructure. Your initial page request is processed by our hosting provider's servers, which record the standard access logs mentioned above. Once the initial page is loaded in your browser, no further server communication is required for the image animation functionality.

We are actively working to minimize all third-party dependencies by hosting more resources locally, and we continuously review our third-party usage for privacy impact.

Important Disclaimer About Third-Party Services

This Privacy Policy applies only to our website and tool. Third-party services that we load resources from (such as Google Fonts) have their own independent privacy policies and practices. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of those third-party services to understand their data practices. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party services.

Data Retention & Security

Because our tool does not upload or store user images, there is no image data to retain, secure, or delete. Images exist only temporarily in your browser memory during your active session and disappear completely when you close the browser tab or navigate away from our website. Your generated frame downloads are saved to your local device by your browser - we have no access to those files.

Web Server Log Retention

Standard web server access logs (which record IP addresses, page requests, and similar technical information, but never image content) are typically retained for a limited period appropriate for security monitoring and troubleshooting purposes - generally between 7 and 30 days - after which they are automatically rotated and deleted. This is standard practice for web hosting operations.

Security of Local Processing

The security of your image content when using our tool is fundamentally protected by the browser security model itself. Images loaded into browser memory via FileReader API are isolated within your browser's security sandbox and cannot be exfiltrated by our code or any third-party code. All image rendering happens inside standard Canvas elements, which are subject to the same-origin security policies enforced by modern browsers.

Your Rights & Choices

We respect your rights over your personal information and provide you with choices regarding your data:

  • Access and control: You have complete control over all images you process with our tool - they exist only on your device, and you decide what to do with them.
  • Cookie preferences: You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers provide settings to control cookies, block third-party cookies, or clear all cookies.
  • No accounts: Our website and tools require no account creation, meaning there is no account information to delete, modify, or export.
  • Right to be forgotten: Since we do not collect personal information beyond standard web server logs, there is typically no identifiable personal data for us to delete. If you have specific concerns, contact us and we will gladly assist.
  • Data portability: All output files from our tool (downloaded PNG frame images) are standard file formats completely under your control with no technical restrictions or DRM.

Children's Privacy

Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 13, or the equivalent minimum age in other jurisdictions. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. Since our tool does not require registration, account creation, or submission of personal information, children can use the basic functionality safely without providing data. However, we encourage parents and guardians to supervise their children's online activity and to help enforce this policy. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information through email contact, please contact us and we will promptly delete such information.

International Data Transfers

Because our image processing happens entirely locally in your browser, there are no international data transfers of your images or personal information related to the image animation tool. The only network traffic involved is the initial page load (HTML, JavaScript, CSS, and font files) which carries no user data beyond standard HTTP request information. If you are accessing our website from outside the country where our web servers are hosted, standard web request data is subject to international network routing, but this applies to all web browsing and involves no personal data beyond your IP address.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes to our practices, to describe new features or tools, or for legal, regulatory, or operational reasons. When we make material changes to this policy, we will indicate the date of the latest revision at the top of the policy. We encourage you to periodically review this Privacy Policy to stay informed about our privacy practices. Your continued use of our Services after any changes to this policy constitutes your agreement to the revised terms.
