Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how SocialCropKit uses cookies and related browser technologies. It should be read with the Privacy Policy, which describes image processing and other information handling in greater detail.
Current cookie position
SocialCropKit does not currently set advertising, personalization or analytics cookies through the application. The core crop, resize and ZIP workflow does not require a cookie. Images and editor adjustments remain in the active browser session rather than being attached to an account.
What a cookie is
A cookie is a small text value that a website can ask a browser to store. Cookies can support essential sessions, remember preferences, measure site use or deliver advertising. Similar technologies include localStorage, sessionStorage, pixels and device identifiers. These technologies have different technical behavior but are often discussed together in cookie notices.
Browser memory used by the editor
When you select an image, the browser decodes it locally and creates a temporary object URL for the active page. Crop positions, zoom, rotation, background options and export settings are maintained in application memory while you work. Refreshing or closing the page clears that working state. The source image is not intentionally written into a SocialCropKit cookie.
Categories of cookies
| Category | Current use | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Not required by the current editor | Would support essential security or session behavior if introduced. |
| Preference | Not currently set | Could remember non-sensitive choices such as export format. |
| Analytics | Not currently set by the application | Would measure site usage if a disclosed analytics service were added. |
| Advertising | Not used | Would support targeted advertising or cross-site measurement. |
Hosting and delivery infrastructure
The infrastructure delivering the website may use short-lived technical mechanisms for security, traffic management or abuse prevention. Any such mechanism is controlled by the deployed hosting configuration and should be reviewed before production services are changed. It does not provide the image editor with a copy of the source image selected on your device.
Future changes
If SocialCropKit introduces analytics, preference storage, advertising or another service that uses cookies, this page will be updated to identify the purpose and relevant provider. Where applicable law requires consent, an appropriate choice mechanism should be implemented before non-essential cookies are activated.
Managing cookies in your browser
Most browsers let you inspect, block or delete cookies through privacy settings. Blocking all cookies can affect websites that depend on essential sessions, although the current SocialCropKit editor is designed without an account session. Browser help documentation explains the controls available for your device and browser version.
Do Not Track and preference signals
Because the current application does not run behaviorally targeted advertising, it does not use a Do Not Track signal to modify advertising behavior. If the site’s tracking practices change, recognized privacy preference signals should be evaluated as part of that implementation.
