Last updated: 2026-10-08

1. Introduction#

Welcome to photocraft.si (the "Website" or "Hub"). We are an independent open-source documentation, compatibility matrix, and troubleshooting resource dedicated to the PhotoCraft raster image editor.

We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting any information that may be gathered while you browse our website. This Privacy Policy outlines what information we collect, how it is used, and your rights regarding that information.


2. Information We Collect#

Because photocraft.si is an informational community resource, we practice strict data minimization:

  1. Server Logs & Technical Data — When you visit our website, standard web server logs may temporarily record non-personally identifiable technical information, such as your IP address, browser user-agent, operating system, referring URLs, and requested pages. This information is used strictly for server health, DDoS prevention, and performance monitoring.
  2. Local Preferences (Cookies & Local Storage) — We use minimal, essential browser storage to remember your visual and interface preferences, such as light/dark theme selection and language choices (PARAGLIDE_LOCALE). We do not use third-party behavioral advertising or invasive cross-site tracking cookies.
  3. Inquiries & Communications — If you voluntarily reach out to us by email at support@photocraft.si, we receive your email address and message contents to respond to your technical questions, bug reports, or feedback.
  4. No Financial or Sensitive Data — We do not sell subscriptions, collect credit card numbers, or store sensitive personal information on our servers.

3. How We Use Your Information#

The limited information we collect is used solely to:

  • Provide, maintain, and optimize the speed, reliability, and security of https://photocraft.si.
  • Respond to inquiries, compatibility feedback, and documentation corrections sent to support@photocraft.si.
  • Diagnose technical issues, detect automated abuse, and safeguard against cyber attacks.

4. Data Sharing & Third-Party Services#

  • We Never Sell Data — We do not sell, rent, trade, or monetize your personal information or browsing data under any circumstances.
  • Infrastructure & Hosting Providers — We host our website using trusted modern infrastructure providers (such as Cloudflare and edge delivery networks) who process network traffic in compliance with strict data protection standards.
  • External Links — Our website contains links to external sites, including GitHub (github.com/storytold/photocraft), community Discord servers, and platform package managers. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of external third-party platforms.

5. Data Security & Retention#

We apply industry-standard security practices, including TLS/HTTPS encryption for all web traffic, restricted server access, and regular security audits. Technical log files are routinely rotated and purged on a rolling basis. Correspondence sent to support@photocraft.si is retained only as long as necessary to address your inquiry.


6. Your Rights (GDPR / CCPA / International)#

Depending on your jurisdiction, you have the right to:

  • Request confirmation of whether we hold any personal data concerning you.
  • Request correction or complete deletion of correspondence or data you have provided to us.
  • Opt out of non-essential cookies via your browser settings.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at support@photocraft.si.
