Privacy Policy
This page explains, in plain language, what happens to your files and your data when you use GreenBG Remover at greenbackgroundremover.com. If anything here is unclear, write to mccauleynarrowlb592@gmail.com, and you will get an answer.
The short version
- Your video and images never leave your device. There is no upload button and no server that receives your media.
- No account, no profile. You cannot log in, because there is nothing to log in to. Nothing you do here is tied to an identity.
- Advertising is how the site pays for itself. Ad partners do set cookies and do see your IP address and approximate location, because that is how ad delivery works everywhere.
- You can turn the advertising cookies off without losing any part of the tool.
1. The media you open in the tool
When you drop a video or an image onto the page, your browser reads that file from your own disk and hands the bytes to JavaScript running inside the tab. The decoding, the chroma key, the AI subject segmentation and the re-encoding all happen on your own processor through WebAssembly and WebGL.
Those bytes are never sent anywhere. There is no server-side rendering step, no temporary storage bucket and no queue. You can verify this yourself: open your browser's developer tools, switch to the Network tab, and start a render. You will see no request carrying your footage. Or simply disconnect from the internet after the page has loaded — the render still completes.
When you close or refresh the tab, everything the tool held in memory — the decoded frames, the matte, your slider positions — is gone. Nothing is written back to any storage that survives the session, so there is no history to clear and nothing for anyone to retrieve later.
2. Files you save
Output files are assembled inside your browser and handed to your own download folder. That file is yours, on your machine. This site has no copy of it and no record that it was made.
3. What this site and its partners do collect
Running a website that anyone can reach means some data is unavoidable. Here is the honest list.
Advertising
This site is supported by advertising. Ad delivery is provided by third-party advertising networks, and their code runs on these pages. Those partners may set and read cookies or similar identifiers in your browser, and may receive:
- your IP address, which reveals a coarse geographic area — typically a city or region, not a street;
- the pages you viewed here and on other sites that carry the same ad network;
- technical details your browser sends with every request, such as browser type, operating system and screen size;
- whether an ad was displayed, and whether it was clicked.
These partners use that data to show advertising they believe is relevant, and to measure campaigns. They do not receive your media, your files, or anything you typed into this site — none of that is ever transmitted.
Analytics
Aggregate statistics — how many people visited, which pages they opened, roughly which country they came from — may be collected to understand which parts of the site are useful. This is not used to identify you personally.
Server logs
The hosting provider records ordinary web server requests, which include IP addresses, as every web host does. These are used for security and to keep the site online.
What is deliberately not collected
- No name, no email address, no account of any kind — unless you choose to write to the address below.
- No payment information, because nothing here costs money.
- No file names, no footage, no stills, no rendered output.
- No contact list, no precise location permission, no camera or microphone access.
4. Cookies and how to control them
Cookies are small text files a site asks your browser to store. There are three broad kinds in play here:
- Strictly necessary cookies. Used by the hosting and security layer to serve the page and to tell apart real visitors from automated attacks. Without them the site cannot function.
- Advertising cookies. Set by ad partners to limit how often you see the same ad and to measure performance.
- Analytics cookies. Set to count visits without identifying individuals.
You are in control of the last two. Every mainstream browser lets you block third-party cookies, clear cookies, and browse in a private window; all of those settings work here, and the tool itself keeps working with all cookies blocked. You can also set your preferences across many ad networks at once through industry opt-out tools such as aboutads.info and youronlinechoices.com, or through your device's own ad-settings screen, which on most phones includes a "limit ad tracking" or "reset advertising ID" control.
5. Children
This site is a video production utility and is not directed at children under 13. No personal information from children is knowingly collected. If you believe a child has provided information, write to the address below and it will be deleted.
6. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to ask what personal data is held about you, to have it corrected or deleted, to object to certain processing, or to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information. Because this site holds no account data about you, in practice there is very little to act on — but the request is still yours to make, and it will be honoured. Write to the address below.
7. Security
The site is served over HTTPS, so the connection between your browser and the server is encrypted. Because your media never travels over that connection, there is no footage in transit to intercept. No system is perfect, and no guarantee of absolute security is made, but the design of this tool removes most of the data that would normally be at risk.
8. Outside links
Some pages link to other websites, including the opt-out tools above. Once you follow such a link you are on someone else's site, and their privacy policy governs what happens next, not this one.
9. Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the date at the top of the page changes with it. Material changes — for example, adding a new category of partner — will be described here rather than slipped in silently. Continuing to use the site after an update means you accept the updated version.
