This Privacy Policy explains what information CutoutKit collects when you visit cutoutkit.app, how we use it, and the choices you have. We try to keep both the service and this document as simple as possible.
1. Images you process
The background-removal tool runs entirely in your web browser. Images you upload or drag into the tool are processed on your device and are never transmitted to our servers. We do not store, log, view, or analyse the contents of your images.
The optional AI background replacement tool is different: with your consent, your photo and background description are sent through Lovable AI Gateway to the image-editing provider. CutoutKit does not permanently store these uploads or generated images. They remain available in your open page until you replace them or leave. The selected AI service uses a zero-retention endpoint; avoid sensitive photos and download any image you wish to keep.
2. Information we do collect
When you visit the site, our hosting provider and analytics tools may automatically collect:
- Standard server logs (IP address, user agent, requested URL, referrer, timestamp)
- Aggregated, anonymised usage statistics (page views, approximate device type, country)
- Crash and error reports that help us fix bugs
We use this information to operate the site, prevent abuse, and improve the product. We do not sell it.
When you submit the contact form, we store your name, email address, topic, message, and submission time in Lovable Cloud so the site owner can read and respond to your request. Contact messages are private and are not visible to other visitors. Avoid including sensitive personal information.
The back office uses Lovable Cloud for account sign-in. Sign-in information and a session are stored to provide secure owner access; visitors do not need an account to use the image tool or send a message.
3. Cookies and similar technologies
CutoutKit uses a small number of cookies and local-storage entries to remember your preferences and to cache the AI model used by the tool. Third-party advertising partners (such as Google AdSense, when enabled) may set their own cookies to serve and measure ads. You can disable cookies in your browser settings; some site features may not work as expected if you do.
Back-office sign-in uses browser storage to maintain the owner's authenticated session. Signing out clears that session.
4. Advertising
The site is supported by advertising. Ad partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You can opt out of personalised advertising at aboutads.info/choices.
5. Data retention
Server logs are retained for up to 30 days. Aggregated analytics are retained for up to 24 months. Because we don't receive your images, there is nothing for us to retain on that front.
6. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information we hold about you. To exercise these rights, contact us at admin@communitybridgemarketing.com.
7. Children
CutoutKit is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
8. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by updating the "Last updated" date at the top of this page.
