Privacy Policy

Last Updated & Effective Date: September 16, 2026

At StarPNG (accessible via https://starpng.com), your privacy is of paramount importance to us. This Privacy Policy document outlines the types of personal and non-personal information collected and recorded by StarPNG and how we use, safeguard, and disclose it.

Key Privacy Takeaways
  • Zero Account Registration: You do not need to create an account, provide your name, or enter your credit card to download assets.
  • Google AdSense Advertising: We use third-party advertising vendors, including Google, who use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites.
  • Opt-Out Options: You can opt out of personalized Google advertising at any time by visiting Google Ads Settings.
  • Local Clipboard Processing: 1-Click PNG and SVG copies are rendered entirely within your local browser sandbox and are never uploaded or tracked on our servers.

1. Information We Collect

When you visit StarPNG, we may collect information in the following ways:

  • Directly Provided Information: When you voluntarily contact us via email or contact forms for customer support, bug reports, or legal inquiries, we collect your name, email address, and the contents of your message.
  • Log Files & Standard Server Telemetry: Like almost all web servers, StarPNG follows a standard procedure of using log files. The information inside the log files includes internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet Service Provider (ISP), date and time stamp, referring/exit pages, and possibly the number of clicks. These are not linked to any information that is personally identifiable and are used solely for analyzing trends, administering the site, preventing DDoS attacks, and tracking aggregate traffic.
  • Local Device Storage: We use browser localStorage purely to remember your UI preferences, such as your custom studio color selections, active level filters, or animation toggles. This data remains on your device and is never transmitted to our backend.
