Uncompromised Security
Imgira's architecture is fundamentally different from traditional online image tools. We've eliminated the primary security risk: the server.
No-Storage Model
Standard image tools upload your files to their servers, process them, and often store them for a period of time. Imgira never sees your images. Data is streamed directly into your browser's RAM for processing and then discarded. No temporary storage, no logs, and no traces on our infrastructure.
Open & Transparent
Our core processing logic is built on open-standard technologies like WebAssembly (WASM). You can inspect the network requests in your browser's developer tools to verify that zero image data is being transmitted to our servers or any third parties during processing.
Local Computation
By leveraging your device's CPU and GPU via modern browser APIs (WebGL/WebGPU), we keep the entire computational cycle within your local security perimeter. This eliminates the risk of "man-in-the-middle" attacks during file uploads.
Secure Hosting
While the processing is local, our platform is served over HTTPS with strict Content Security Policies (CSP). These headers prevent unauthorized scripts from running and ensure that the tools you use are the ones we've peer-reviewed and deployed.
Technical Architecture
Imgira acts more like a native desktop application than a traditional website. When you click "Convert" or "Resize," your browser executes a secure binary (via WebAssembly) that handles the pixel manipulation directly in memory.
Security in Depth
Eliminating the server removes the biggest attack surface, but it is not the whole story. A secure platform also depends on how it is hosted, how it is updated, how it handles the rare requests it does receive, and how honestly it communicates all of that to the people who rely on it.
Data Handling Policy
Files you process are loaded into browser memory and discarded when the tab closes — we do not write them to disk, queue them for processing, or cache them anywhere. The only data our infrastructure receives are standard access logs (IP address, timestamp, requested URL, user agent) used for performance and abuse monitoring. These logs contain no file content and are retained for a maximum of 90 days before being deleted.
Preferences such as theme, language, and consent choices are stored locally in your browser. Where we do store something server-side — for example, a contact form submission — it is limited to the information you deliberately typed into the form, and it is used only to respond to you.
Encryption & Transport
Every connection to Imgira is protected by HTTPS using TLS 1.2 or higher, with HSTS preloading so browsers never fall back to plaintext. Certificate rotation and renewal are automated, and mixed content is blocked by a strict Content Security Policy — scripts, frames, and connections are limited to an explicit allowlist of origins we control or have vetted.
Third-party scripts are pinned with Subresource Integrity checks where the provider supports them, and the advertising and analytics integrations are loaded only after consent is recorded. Because file processing is local, there is no upload channel to encrypt in the first place.
Incident Response
If a security issue is reported or discovered, the response follows a fixed sequence: confirm and reproduce, contain, patch, deploy, and disclose. Critical issues affecting user data — however rare given the local-processing model — are communicated through a site notice and an update to the Privacy Policy revision log.
Vulnerability reports from researchers are welcome at support@imgira.site. We acknowledge reports within two business days, do not pursue good-faith researchers who follow responsible disclosure, and credit reporters who wish to be named.
Independent Verification
We do not ask you to take the architecture on faith. Open the browser's developer tools, process a file, and watch the network tab: the absence of uploads is directly observable. Our processing libraries are built on open standards — WebAssembly, the Canvas API, and well-known open-source encoding libraries — so the behavior can be inspected rather than merely claimed.
Automated header and TLS configuration scans are run regularly against the domain, and the results are used to keep transport security, CSP, and related headers at current best practice rather than at whatever was configured at launch.
Your Security Checklist
Most security incidents involving online tools are caused by the tool, but a few simple habits make even a local-processing workflow safer:
- ✓Keep your browser updated — local processing inherits your browser's sandbox.
- ✓Verify you are on https://www.imgira.site before dropping in sensitive files.
- ✓Close the tab when you are done; that is what clears files from memory.
- ✓Use the browser's developer tools network tab to confirm no upload occurs.
- ✓Decline advertising or analytics cookies if you do not want them set.
- ✓Report anything unusual to support@imgira.site — we treat reports as priority work.
