Privacy

This privacy policy explains how Vectorlight ("we", "us") uses information when you visit www.vectorlight.net or vectorlight.net.

Last updated: 13 November 2026.

Who we are

Vectorlight is a free website of SVG and color tools. We show Google ads on many pages so the tools can stay free.

For questions about this policy, or to make a request about your information, email [email protected].

Files you open in the tools

When you open an image or an SVG file in one of our tools, that file is processed in your browser on your device. It is not uploaded to our servers, and we do not store it. Passing a file from one tool to another on this site also stays in the browser; the file is not sent to us.

If you download a result, the file is saved on your device. If you copy a link that only contains tool settings (for example a palette of colors in the address), that link does not include the file itself.

What information we collect

We do not ask you to create an account, and the public site has no newsletter, comments, or contact form.

We also do not run Google Analytics, and the site's own code does not use cookies, local storage, session storage, or similar browser storage on public pages.

We process the following information so we can run the site, show ads, and hear from you:

  • Email you send us. If you email [email protected], we receive your email address and the message you send. We use this only to read and reply. Once we have read the message and dealt with it, we delete it.
  • Technical request data. Each visit goes through Cloudflare, which provides content delivery and security. Cloudflare may process information such as your IP address, browser and device details, the page or file requested, and the date and time. Our own server keeps no access logs, and we do not log visitor activity. Google and Cloudflare explain their own retention in their privacy policies.
  • Advertising and consent data. On most public pages we load Google AdSense and, for visitors in the UK, the EU, and the EEA, Google's Privacy & messaging consent tool. Google may process your IP address, browser and device details, and information about the page and your ad and consent choices, as described in the cookies and ads section below.

Cookies and ads

Many pages load Google AdSense, which is provided by Google. The site includes one manual ad unit, shown just above the footer on a number of tool and landing pages. Google's AdSense script is also loaded on most other indexed pages, including this privacy policy, even when no ad is shown. The contact page does not load AdSense.

For visitors in the United Kingdom, the European Union, and the European Economic Area, the same Google tag can show a consent message from Google's Privacy & messaging tool. That message lets you choose how your data is used for ads before non-essential advertising cookies are set. If you are outside those regions, you may not see the message, and Google may use cookies in line with its own policies and the law that applies to you.

Google may use cookies and similar technologies to show and measure ads, to limit how often you see an ad, and, where allowed, to personalize ads. We do not control Google's cookies. You can read how Google uses information from sites that use its services, and you can change your Google ad settings, here:

This site does not currently have its own button to reopen the consent message. If you are in the UK, the EU, or the EEA, you can usually change your advertising choices through that consent message when it is shown, and through Google's ad settings.

Cloudflare may also set strictly necessary security cookies, such as __cf_bm or cf_clearance, to tell real visitors from harmful bots. Those cookies are used for security, not to show you ads. You can read more on Cloudflare's cookie page.

Cloudflare

The site is delivered through Cloudflare, which provides a content delivery network and security (for example, protection against attacks and abusive traffic). Every request passes through Cloudflare's network first. To deliver pages and protect the site, Cloudflare may process technical information such as your IP address, browser and device details, and the page or file requested.

As noted above, Cloudflare may set security cookies such as __cf_bm or cf_clearance when it needs them. Cloudflare runs data centers in many countries, so this information may be processed outside the United Kingdom, including in the United States. Cloudflare handles it under its own Privacy Policy.

Third parties

These organizations may process information about your visit, under their own privacy policies:

  • Google, for AdSense and the Privacy & messaging consent tool. See Google's Privacy Policy and the partner-sites and ad settings links above.
  • Cloudflare, for content delivery and security, as described above.

If you follow a link to another website, that site's own privacy policy applies.

Where UK GDPR or EU GDPR applies, we rely on the following legal bases:

  • Legitimate interests, to run and secure the site, including using Cloudflare for delivery and protection. We have a legitimate interest in keeping the site available, safe, and reasonably funded.
  • Legitimate interests, and as needed to take steps at your request, when you email us and we reply.
  • Consent, for non-essential advertising cookies and personalized ads, where the consent message is required (UK, EU, and EEA visitors). You can refuse or withdraw that consent without affecting your ability to use the tools.
  • Legitimate interests or, where required, consent, for showing non-personalized ads where that is allowed without consent.
  • Legal obligation, if we must keep or disclose information to comply with the law or a binding request from a public authority.

How long we keep information

Files you open in the tools are not sent to us and are not kept by us. They remain in your browser until you close the tab or leave the page.

Emails sent to [email protected] are deleted once we have read them and dealt with them.

Our server keeps no access logs and we do not log visitor activity, so we hold nothing about your visit to delete. Google and Cloudflare keep data for their own periods, which they explain in their privacy policies.

International transfers

Google and Cloudflare may process information in the United States and other countries. Where UK GDPR or EU GDPR applies, those transfers rely on legally recognized safeguards used by those providers, such as an adequacy decision or standard contractual clauses. You can read the details in Google's Privacy Policy and Cloudflare's Privacy Policy.

Your rights

If UK GDPR or EU GDPR applies to you, you have the right to:

  • ask for a copy of personal data we hold about you
  • ask us to correct inaccurate personal data
  • ask us to delete personal data in certain cases
  • ask us to restrict how we use personal data in certain cases
  • object to processing that is based on legitimate interests
  • receive personal data you have provided, in a structured, commonly used format, where the legal basis is consent or contract and the processing is automated
  • withdraw consent at any time, where we rely on consent (this does not affect processing that already took place)
  • complain to a supervisory authority

We do not receive the files you open in the tools, and the public site does not keep an account or profile for you. If you only browse the site, we hold no personal data about that visit. If you have emailed us and we have not yet deleted the message, we will hold your email address and the message until we have dealt with it, and you can ask us to access, correct, or delete that information. We will consider every request.

To make a request, email [email protected]. If you are not satisfied with our response, you can complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office at https://ico.org.uk/make-a-complaint/. If you live in the EEA, you may also complain to your local data protection authority.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will change when we do. The current version will always be published on this page.
