Privacy Policy
Effective date: February 15, 2026. This Privacy Policy explains how RemoveBGTransparent ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you use the background removal tool on removebgtransparent.com. We want you to understand how images are processed, what we do not store, and how ads are served. If you have questions, please contact [email protected].
What we collect
When you upload an image to remove a background, we temporarily process that image to produce a transparent PNG. The image itself is not tied to your identity and we do not require accounts or logins. We may collect basic technical information such as browser type, device type, approximate location, and usage events that help us maintain site reliability. This data is used to improve the tool, understand performance, and prevent abuse.
How image processing works
Images are processed on our infrastructure to run the background removal model. In some cases the tool may do additional steps in the browser to display previews, but the core AI processing is server-side. We do not permanently store your images. Files are held only long enough to process and transmit the result, and then they are discarded. We do not build a library of uploads, and we do not use your images for training or marketing without explicit permission.
Cookies and advertising
We use Google AdSense to display ads so the service can remain free. AdSense may use cookies or similar technologies to serve relevant ads and measure performance. These cookies are managed by Google and are subject to Google policies. We do not control the content of ads shown to you, but we work to ensure ads are displayed in appropriate areas of the site and not over the background removal workflow. You can opt out of personalized advertising by adjusting your Google Ad settings.
Data retention and security
We do not retain uploaded images beyond the time needed to process them. Logs and analytics data may be retained for a limited period to diagnose errors, prevent fraud, and improve reliability. We use standard security practices to protect the service, including access controls and secure transport. No method is perfect, but we make reasonable efforts to protect your information.
Children's privacy
This service is intended for general audiences and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information to us, please contact [email protected] and we will take appropriate action.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect product changes, legal requirements, or improvements to the service. When we make changes, we will update the effective date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated policy.
