Privacy Policy
Effective date: July 17, 2026
PassportPhoto.app helps you prepare passport and visa photos in your browser. This page explains what information we handle, how advertising on the site works, and how you can control common browser settings—in plain language.
Scope of This Policy
This policy covers PassportPhoto.app, including the photo tool, country requirement pages, and how-to guides. By using the site, you agree to the practices described here.
Your Photos Stay on Your Device
When you upload a picture to crop or resize, the image is processed on your own device in your browser. We do not receive, store, or look at your photos on our servers. Closing the tab or leaving the page clears the working copy from that session.
Information We May Collect
We do not require an account. We may receive limited, general information about how the site is used—such as which pages are visited, approximate country-level location, and the type of device or browser—so we can keep the service reliable and useful. We may also remember your language preference so English or Chinese opens next time.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
Like most websites, we and our partners may store small pieces of data on your device. These help remember settings (for example, language), understand overall traffic patterns, improve the site, and—when ads are shown—support advertising features. You can usually manage or clear this data in your browser settings. Turning some options off may reduce convenience features such as saved language preference.
Advertising on This Site
We may display ads from advertising partners to keep the free tool available. Those partners may use cookies or similar technologies to show ads, measure how ads perform, and—where allowed—show ads that are more relevant to you. Partners may collect information such as your IP address, browser type, and pages viewed on this site. We do not sell your photos, and we do not share your uploaded images with advertisers because those images never leave your device.
How We Use Information
We use the limited information described above to operate and improve the website, fix problems, understand which guides help travelers most, and support site advertising where it is enabled. We do not sell your personal information. Because we never receive your photos, we cannot use them for marketing or any other purpose.
Your Choices
You can control cookies and similar data through your browser settings. Many advertising platforms also provide tools so you can limit personalized ads. Blocking some cookies may affect how the site remembers preferences or how ads are shown, but you can still use the photo tool.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do, we will change the effective date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised policy.
