About this service

The application is provided free of charge as an experimental prerelease. Continuous availability is not guaranteed. Important originals and projects should also be backed up outside the browser.

Privacy policy

Your photos and image analyses stay on your device. There are no photo uploads, ads or tracking.

Hosting

ALL-INKL.COM – Neue Medien Münnich, Hauptstraße 68, 02742 Friedersdorf, Germany, serves the application. This involves processing IP addresses, request times, requested files, status, data volume, referrers, browser and operating-system details. Our legitimate interest is secure, reliable operation (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR).

Local processing and storage

Photos, edits and AI analyses are processed exclusively on your device. Your browser stores copies of originals, projects, settings and program packages for editing, restoration and offline use (Section 25(2)(2) TDDDG). You can delete this data through your browser's website-data settings. Removing a photo deletes its internal original copy; your original file remains unchanged.

Optional AI models are downloaded from our server at your request. External websites are accessed only when you open their links.

Export metadata

JPEG exports retain supported camera, capture and GPS data from JPEG originals. Old thumbnails, unknown fields and manufacturer-specific MakerNotes are not retained. The creating software is set to https://dunkelkammer.app, including when the original has no EXIF data. Check location data before sharing. PNG and WebP exports do not retain EXIF data.

Contact

We process email information with the mail providers involved to answer your request (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR for contract-related matters, otherwise (f): our legitimate interest in handling inquiries). It is then deleted unless statutory retention obligations apply.

Your rights

Subject to statutory conditions, you have rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction and portability. You may object to processing based on legitimate interests on grounds relating to your particular situation. Contact us at the address above. You may also complain to a data-protection supervisory authority.
