Privacy
Your photos stay on your device. Period.
Most “privacy-friendly” tools say they delete your photos after processing. BgRemove never receives them in the first place.
Your images never reach our servers
All AI processing happens in your browser using local memory and your CPU/GPU. There is no upload step.
We don't see your photos
The background remover never sends your image anywhere, so there is nothing for us to see. We didn't add a privacy mode; the only mode is private.
No image storage
Not even temporarily. The AI model loads once from our own domain and runs locally afterward.
No account required
Because there's no need for one. There's nothing to log in to, nothing to sync, nothing to forget to delete.
The technical version
When you visit bgremovers.org, your browser downloads the BgRemove web app (HTML, CSS, JavaScript) along with the AI model (44–88 MB, depending on your device) from our own domain. Your browser caches the model after the first visit. When you select an image:
- The image is read into your browser's memory as a binary blob.
- It is decoded into pixel data inside an HTML
<canvas>element. - The local AI model runs inference on those pixels using WebAssembly + GPU acceleration.
- The output PNG is generated by the same canvas and offered as a download.
- When you close the tab, the image and result are released from memory. Nothing persists.
No network request carries your image data. You can verify this yourself: open browser DevTools → Network tab, drop an image into BgRemove, and watch — no upload occurs.
This applies to every tool on this website. We also have a developer REST API that is not currently enabled; by its nature it would receive the images developers send to it. If we enable it, its own page will say so clearly.
What we do collect
- Anonymous traffic statistics (page views, browser type, country) via Cloudflare Web Analytics, a small cookie-free script added by our host.
- Anonymous usage counts — which tool was used, whether processing succeeded, how long it took, which AI engine ran, and whether you downloaded the result. We also count anonymous page views (which page, the referring site's domain, device type and browser). No images, file names or cookies, and IP addresses are never stored — a one-way daily hash is used only to stop abuse. A single “used before” flag is kept in your browser. If you send feedback, it includes how your last image was processed (engine and device type).
- Standard server logs from our host (Cloudflare) for the HTML/JS/model files you download. These contain IP addresses and User-Agent strings, held according to Cloudflare's default retention.
- No cookies set by us aside from a theme preference (light/dark) stored in localStorage on your own device.
Third-party services
- AI models + WASM runtime (RMBG-1.4, MediaPipe) — served from
bgremovers.org/m/via Cloudflare on first use. Your browser makes no requests to Hugging Face, Google or jsdelivr. Standard CDN logging applies. - No ads and no third-party trackers. We currently use no Google Analytics, no advertising and no tracking cookies. If that ever changes, this page will be updated first, and consent will be requested where the law requires it.
Your rights
Since we don't collect personally identifiable information about your image content, there's nothing of yours for us to delete. For analytics, opt out with any standard browser tracking blocker, or enable "Do Not Track".
