Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 9, 2026

This privacy policy explains what happens to your data when you use AIPhotoDetector.tools. The short version: the images you check never leave your device. We do not have an account system, we do not store your images, and we do not see your results.

Who this privacy policy covers

This privacy policy covers the website AIPhotoDetector.tools and every tool on it: the AI photo detector, the AI image checker, the AI art detector, the AI picture detector and the C2PA checker. It does not cover third-party websites you reach through links or ads.

Images you check stay on your device

When you drop, paste or choose an image, it is read by JavaScript running in your browser. The Content Credentials reader, the metadata parser and the detection model all run locally using WebAssembly. The image, its metadata and the result are kept only in the memory of your browser tab and are discarded when you check another image, reload or close the page. We never receive, store, publish or share them, and they are not used to train any model.

If you paste an image link, your browser downloads that image directly from the site that hosts it. That site will see a normal request from your browser, as it would if you opened the link yourself. We do not proxy or log these requests.

This matters especially for photos that show people. Because processing is local, checking a photo of yourself or someone else does not share that photo with us or any third party.

Files the site downloads to your browser

To work offline-capable and fast, the page downloads the detection model (about 22 MB), the ONNX Runtime engine and the C2PA reader from our own domain, and stores them in your browser's cache storage. You can delete them at any time by clearing site data for this domain in your browser settings.

Hosting and server logs

The site is served by Cloudflare. Like any web host, Cloudflare processes technical data such as IP addresses, user agent and requested URLs to deliver pages and protect against abuse. These requests never include your images. See Cloudflare's privacy policy for details.

Fonts

Fonts are loaded from Google Fonts. Your browser requests the font files from Google's servers, which receive your IP address and user agent. No cookies are set by this request.

Analytics

We use Microsoft Clarity to understand how visitors use the pages (for example, where people click and how far they scroll) so we can improve the tool. Clarity uses cookies and collects usage data such as device type and interactions. It does not receive the images you check. You can opt out by blocking clarity.ms or using your browser's tracking protection. See Microsoft's privacy statement for details.

Advertising

The site may show ads through Google AdSense in the future. Google and its partners would then use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other websites, and you could opt out of personalised advertising in Google's Ads Settings. Ad networks never receive the images you check.

Where required by law (for example in the EU, UK and some US states), you will be asked for consent before non-essential cookies are used.

Cookies

The detector itself sets no cookies. Cookies may be set by the analytics and advertising services described in this privacy policy. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings; the detector keeps working without them.

Security

The site is served only over HTTPS. Because images are processed locally and never transmitted, there is no server-side copy of your images that could be exposed in a breach.

How long we keep data

Images and results: not at all, since we never receive them. Emails you send us: as long as needed to answer and follow up, then deleted. Hosting, analytics and advertising data: according to the retention periods of Cloudflare, Microsoft and Google.

Contact form and email

If you email us, we receive your email address and the content of your message and use them only to reply. We do not add you to any mailing list.

Children

The site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.

Your rights

Because we do not store images or results and have no accounts, there is usually no personal data for us to access, correct or delete. For data handled by Cloudflare, Google or Microsoft, use the controls those companies provide. For anything else, contact us through the About page.

Changes to this privacy policy

We will update this privacy policy if the way the site handles data changes, and change the date at the top. Significant changes, such as any change to local image processing, will be stated clearly on the home page.
