Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 2, 2026. Learn how Online Video Cropper protects your data privacy through 100% in-browser WebAssembly processing.
1. Introduction
At Online Video Cropper (accessible at https://video-cropper.com/), one of our main priorities is the privacy of our visitors. This Privacy Policy document outlines the types of information that are collected and recorded by Online Video Cropper and how we use it, as well as our zero-upload architectural commitment.
2. Core Architectural Privacy Guarantee (Zero File Uploads)
Unlike traditional web converters, Online Video Cropper operates entirely inside your web browser using FFmpeg compiled to WebAssembly (Wasm). When you select or drag and drop a video file into our web application:
- Your video file is loaded directly into your web browser's local RAM memory.
- Video frames are decoded, cropped, resized, and encoded locally on your computer or mobile device.
- Zero bytes of your video or audio data are transmitted to or stored on any external server or cloud service.
- Your video content remains 100% private, confidential, and isolated inside your browser's security sandbox.
3. Information We Collect
Because we do not require account registration, login credentials, or server-side media processing, our data collection is strictly minimal:
A. Personally Identifiable Information (PII)
We do not collect, store, or sell any personally identifiable information (such as names, addresses, phone numbers, or credit card details) during standard use of our web tool. If you contact us voluntarily via email (contactpri926@gmail.com), we use your provided email address solely to reply to your inquiry.
B. Non-Personal Technical & Usage Data
Like almost all standard web hosting servers, basic non-personally identifiable server log files may automatically log standard network requests when loading website assets (HTML, CSS, JS binaries). These log entries may include your Internet Protocol (IP) address, browser user-agent, operating system, referring pages, and timestamp. This data is used exclusively for network security, DDoS prevention, and web server maintenance.
4. Cookies & Local Storage
Online Video Cropper does not use tracking cookies or persistent advertising cookies to monitor individual user browsing behavior across external websites.
We may use client-side localStorage or sessionStorage strictly within your browser to
store basic UI preferences (such as your chosen aspect ratio preset or dark mode settings). This data remains
strictly stored on your device and is never sent to our servers.
5. Analytics & Third-Party Services
We may utilize privacy-friendly, aggregate web analytics tools to measure overall traffic volume, popular browser types, and performance metrics. These tools do not track individual video content, user identities, or cross-site activities.
We deliver core static assets (such as FFmpeg WebAssembly library scripts) using global Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) such as unpkg. CDN providers may log standard HTTP requests necessary to deliver script files to your browser efficiently and securely.
6. File Processing & Instant Deletion Policy
Because your video files are held in your browser's volatile JavaScript memory (ArrayBuffers):
- No temporary or permanent copies of your media exist on any server.
- As soon as you click "Crop Another Video", refresh the page, or close your browser tab, all temporary memory references to your input and cropped video files are immediately purged from system RAM.
- We cannot inspect, view, retrieve, or recover your video files under any circumstances because we never possess them.
7. Security Measures & Browser Sandbox Boundaries
Your video processing security relies on modern browser sandboxing standards. We enforce strict HTTP headers
including Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy (require-corp) and
Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy (same-origin) to ensure WebAssembly multi-threading executes within
isolated, secure memory environments.
8. General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) Compliance
For users in the European Economic Area (EEA), Online Video Cropper complies fully with GDPR guidelines:
- Legal Basis: Zero processing of personal media data occurs on external servers.
- Data Portability & Erasure: You retain complete custody of your local files. Closing the browser tab instantly erases all transient memory.
- User Rights: You have the right to request information regarding any email communication sent to contactpri926@gmail.com.
9. California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) Rights
Under the CCPA, California consumers have specific privacy rights regarding personal information:
- Right to Know: We do not collect or store personal video data or sell user information.
- Right to Opt-Out / Do Not Sell My Personal Information: Online Video Cropper does not sell, rent, or trade personal data to third-party data brokers.
- Non-Discrimination: All users enjoy 100% free access to our online video cropper without restrictions.
10. Children's Privacy (COPPA Compliance)
Another part of our priority is adding protection for children while using the internet. Online Video Cropper does not knowingly collect any Personal Identifiable Information from children under the age of 13. If you believe your child provided email information on our website, we strongly encourage you to contact us immediately, and we will promptly remove such information from our records.
11. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update our Privacy Policy periodically to reflect technological improvements or regulatory updates. Any changes will be posted on this page with a updated effective date.
