Privacy-First Image Editing: Why Your Files Should Never Leave Your Device
Most online image tools require you to upload your files to their servers. This creates unnecessary privacy and security risks.
The Problem with Server-Based Tools
When you upload files to a server:
1. Your files exist on someone else's computer - Even temporarily
2. EXIF data is exposed - Including GPS coordinates
3. Files may be retained - Some services keep copies
4. Data breaches happen - Even major companies get hacked
5. Terms of service - May grant usage rights to your images
The Browser-Based Alternative
Modern web technologies enable powerful image processing entirely in the browser:
