Privacy Policy

1. Who we are

OrchidLines (“we”, “us”) operates the website at orchidlines.com. You can contact us at the address listed at the end of this policy.

2. Your files

OrchidLines’s tools run as JavaScript and WebAssembly inside your own web browser. When you select or drag a file into a tool, the browser reads that file from your device into the page’s memory. All processing — resizing, converting, encrypting, calculating — happens there. The result is written back to your device when you press download.

We therefore do not receive, transmit, store, log, back up, inspect or share your files or their contents. There is no upload step. This is a property of how the site is built, not a promise about how we behave. You can confirm it at any time by opening your browser’s developer tools and watching the Network tab while you use a tool, or by disconnecting from the internet after the page has loaded and using the tool anyway.

3. Data stored on your device

Some tools save small amounts of data locally, using your browser’s localStorage, IndexedDB or Cache Storage. This never leaves your device, and you can clear it at any time through your browser settings. Examples:

• Your light or dark theme preference.
• Settings you last used in a tool, so it opens the way you left it.
• One-time downloaded engines or AI models, cached so a tool does not have to re-download them.

4. Information collected automatically

Like any website, our web server records standard technical information when a page is requested: IP address, browser user agent, the page requested, referring page, and a timestamp. These logs are used to keep the site running and secure, and to understand which tools are popular. They contain no information about the files you process.

5. Advertising

OrchidLines is free and is funded by advertising. We use Google AdSense to serve ads. Google and its partners may use cookies, device identifiers and similar technologies to serve and measure advertising, including personalised advertising based on your prior visits to this and other websites.

• Google’s use of advertising cookies is described in How Google uses information from sites that use its services.
• You can opt out of personalised advertising at Google Ads Settings, and from many other vendors at aboutads.info/choices.
• Where required by law, a consent banner is shown before personalised advertising cookies are set, and you can change your choice at any time.

Advertising is the only third-party code on the site that contacts a network. It has no access to the files you are working on — those exist only in the tool’s own memory.

6. Analytics

We may use a privacy-respecting analytics service to count page views and understand which tools people use. Any such service is configured not to collect personally identifying information, and it has no visibility into your files.

7. Children

OrchidLines is a general-audience utility site and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

8. Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct or delete personal data we hold about you. In practice we hold very little: we have no user accounts, and we never receive your files. If you would like a copy of, or the deletion of, any server log entries associated with your IP address, contact us and we will action it.

If you are in the EEA or UK, our lawful basis for processing server logs is our legitimate interest in operating a secure website, and for advertising cookies it is your consent.

9. Changes

If this policy changes we will update the date at the top of this page. Material changes will be noted on the home page.
