| Data | Kept for |
|---|---|
| Account: e-mail, optional name, optional password hash, language, plan, settings | Until you delete the account |
| Sessions: session token, browser and device description, last activity | 30 days or until you log out |
| Tool runs: tool, status, start and end time — nothing about the images | 13 months |
| Billing: plan, subscription, Stripe customer reference (no card data) | As long as the account exists and the law requires |
| E-mail log: the e-mails we sent you (incl. product news) | 90 days |
| Security logs: audit entries, rate-limit counters (partly with IP address) | IP addresses removed or expired within 90 days |
| Error reports: technical error details, page and browser — tool errors only as a code, never image content | 90 days after the last occurrence |
| Visit statistics: pages visited, how the visit started, device, browser and country — pseudonymous, no IP address, nothing from your images | 13 months after the visit |
Product news: a new account occasionally receives e-mails about new features and improvements (the sign-up form says so); an account from before October 2026 only once you switch them on in Settings → Account → E-mails. Switch them off there, or with the unsubscribe link in any such e-mail — no sign-in needed. E-mails about your account, sign-in and billing keep arriving, and so do notices we are legally required to send (for example a change to our terms of use), even with product news switched off.
Your browser also keeps your appearance setting (light/dark) and, if you picked a plan before signing up, that choice — both only on your device. For the visit statistics, it keeps a temporary visit identifier, how the visit started and the time of your last activity, all only until you close the tab.
We use no third-party analytics, no advertising and no third-party scripts; our own visit statistics stay on our server. You can object to them by writing to support@schweizerimg.ch. SchweizerIMG is hosted in Switzerland. The full list, including recipients such as our e-mail provider and Stripe, is in the privacy policy.
