Privacy Policy
Last updated: 11/30/2025
Our Privacy Commitment
RedactID is built with privacy as the foundation. Unlike other services, we never see, store, or have access to your documents.
How It Works
All image processing happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript and HTML5 Canvas. When you upload an image:
- The image stays on your device
- Processing happens in your browser's memory
- Redaction is applied locally
- You download the result directly from your browser
At no point does your image leave your device.
Data We Collect
What We Do NOT Collect:
- Your images
- Content of your documents
- Personal information from your IDs
- Any sensitive data
What We DO Collect:
- Usage counts: We store your IP address + current date to enforce the 1 free redaction per day limit. This data expires after 48 hours.
- Payment information: If you purchase a pack, payment is processed by Stripe. We only store your purchase entitlement (e.g., "50 redactions remaining"). No credit card data is stored by us.
- Anonymous analytics: We may use privacy-preserving analytics to understand how people use the service (e.g., "X people uploaded a document today"). These contain no personal information.
Cookies
We use minimal cookies only for:
- Remembering your purchased redaction pack balance
- Essential functionality
No tracking or advertising cookies are used.
Third-Party Services
We use the following third-party services:
- Stripe: For payment processing. They handle all payment data securely. See their privacy policy.
- Vercel: For hosting. See their privacy policy.
- Upstash Redis: For rate limiting storage. See their privacy policy.
Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Request deletion of your usage data
- Request a copy of data we store about you
- Opt out of any analytics
To exercise these rights, contact us at privacy@redactid.io.
GDPR Compliance
We are committed to GDPR compliance. Since we don't store your images or personal data, we collect minimal information. Your usage data is automatically deleted after 48 hours.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes via email (if you've purchased a pack) or by prominent notice on the website.
