Privacy Policy & Data Protection.
Last updated: October 2026. Your privacy and image ownership are absolute when using bg.tools.
Zero Image Retention
Images uploaded for background removal or editing are processed in ephemeral memory and discarded instantly.
No AI Training
We never use your personal or commercial photos to train AI models or public datasets.
Encrypted Processing
All data transfers run through TLS 1.3 end-to-end encryption with secure token verification.
1. Information We Collect
We collect minimal account information necessary to manage your credits and authentication (such as email address and subscription preferences). We do NOT archive, index, or store your uploaded image content.
2. Image File Lifecycle
When you drag & drop an image or document into bg.tools, it is transmitted securely to our GPU inference clusters. Once alpha matting, rotation, watermark cleaning or format conversion completes, the raw file and result are returned to your browser and immediately purged from server memory.
3. Cookies & Analytics
We use essential session tokens to remember your login status and theme preference (Day/Night mode). We do not run intrusive 3rd-party tracking scripts or sell user data to advertising brokers.
4. Upload Security & Temporary Retention Policy
To guarantee maximum infrastructure stability and privacy, our platform strictly enforces a 30 MB per-file upload limit with binary magic-byte validation against executables. Any files requiring temporary processing are held in private, non-public storage directories with strict filesystem access controls. Original inputs and generated outputs are permanently purged immediately upon download completion, and an automated lifecycle daemon purges any orphaned temporary files older than 1 hour. We never transmit files to third-party APIs.
5. Your Data Rights
You can request full account deletion and data wipe at any time by contacting our support team at privacy@bg.tools.
