Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 2026

Introduction

Welcome to Pixelsito. This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when Pixelsito's pixel art editor (the "Service") is used. Pixelsito is an independent, one-person project, built to work entirely in your browser, so there's very little information collected in the first place.

Information Collected

Pixelsito does not require account creation, and pixel art projects are not collected or stored on any servers. Everything created stays in your own browser. Personal information such as your name, email address, or payment details is not knowingly collected, because the Service does not ask for any of these to function.

Local Storage & Autosave

To help protect your work, Pixelsito automatically saves your current project to your browser's local storage as you work. This data is stored only on your own device and is never transmitted to any servers. Clearing your browser's site data, or using a different browser or device, will remove this local copy. Your browser's local storage is also used to remember your preferences, such as your selected language, color theme, and editor settings, so the Service works the way it was left the next time you visit.

Cookies & Advertising

Pixelsito is free to use, and advertising helps cover the costs of hosting, development, and maintenance. Displaying ads may involve advertising partners using cookies or similar technologies to serve ads and measure their performance. These partners may collect information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you. Where required by applicable law, appropriate consent mechanisms are provided for cookies related to advertising.

Third-Party Services

Pixelsito loads some resources from third-party providers to function correctly, including web fonts (Google Fonts) and icon libraries (Font Awesome, via Cloudflare's CDN). Loading these resources may share limited technical information, such as your IP address and browser type, with those providers, in line with their own privacy policies.

Users of All Ages

Pixelsito is designed to be safe and enjoyable for users of all ages. The Service does not require an account and does not ask for personal details, so this applies equally regardless of age. As described above, personal information is not knowingly collected from any user, including children. Parents or guardians with questions about a child's use of Pixelsito can use the contact details below.

Your Choices

Because your projects and preferences are stored locally in your browser, you're always in control of them. This data can be cleared at any time through your browser's settings. If your browser or device offers ad-related privacy controls (such as limiting ad tracking), those settings will also apply to ads shown within Pixelsito.

California Privacy Rights (CCPA)

California residents have certain rights over their personal information under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), including the right to know what personal information is collected, the right to request its deletion, the right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information, and the right not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights. Because Pixelsito doesn't require an account and stores projects and preferences locally on your own device rather than on any servers, there is very little personal information held in the first place, and personal information is not sold. To the extent any personal information is processed (for example, through advertising partners), CCPA rights can be exercised using the contact details below.

European Privacy Rights (GDPR)

Individuals located in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland have certain rights over their personal data under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and equivalent UK/Swiss laws, including the right to access, correct, or delete data, the right to restrict or object to processing, and the right to data portability. Because Pixelsito stores projects and preferences locally in your own browser rather than on any servers, very little personal data is held directly. Where advertising partners process personal data on Pixelsito's behalf or as independent controllers, they are responsible for their own GDPR compliance, and their own privacy policies can be reviewed for more information. GDPR-related requests can be sent using the contact details below.

Changes to This Policy

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes to the Service or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. The "Last updated" date above will be updated when that happens.
