Privacy Policy

This policy explains what information the PhotoSearch Pro website (photosearchpro.com, “we”, “us”) collects, why, and who it is shared with. Our Android app has its own privacy policy, linked from its Google Play page.

1. Reverse image search

When you search by photo, your browser shrinks the photo and sends it over an encrypted connection (HTTPS) to our server, which passes it to imgbb (imgbb.com), a third-party image host. The photo gets a web address that anyone who has the address could open, and it is deleted automatically after 10 minutes. We do not keep a copy and we do not keep a history of your searches.

When you choose a search engine (such as Google Lens, Bing, Yandex or TinEye), the photo's address, or the image link or words you entered, is sent to that search engine in a new tab. Each search engine handles your search under its own privacy policy and may set its own cookies.

2. Tools that work only on your device

Photo info, Image to text and QR scanner run inside your browser. Your photos, camera feed and the text or codes found are not uploaded. To work, these pages download open-source code and language data from a public content network (jsDelivr), which receives your IP address like any website you visit.

3. Information collected automatically

Our website is hosted by Cloudflare. Like any web host, Cloudflare processes your IP address, browser type and the pages you request to deliver the site, protect it from abuse and produce anonymous visit statistics. We do not use these to identify you.

4. Cookies and local storage

We do not use cookies for tracking. Your browser stores one small setting if you close the “Get the app” banner, so it stays hidden for a week.

5. Advertising

If we show ads, they will be served by Google AdSense. Google and its partners may then use cookies to show and measure ads, including personalised ads based on your visits to this and other websites. Where the law requires it, we will ask for your consent first. You can manage personalised ads at adssettings.google.com. Learn more: how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

6. Children

This website is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children.

7. Your rights

Because we don't keep your photos or search history, there is usually nothing linked to you for us to delete. If you have a question or request about your data, email us and we will help.

8. Changes

We may update this policy when the website changes. The new version will be posted on this page with a new date.
