Why Browser-Local Image Conversion Matters for Privacy

Uploading family photos or client assets to random converters creates GDPR and security risk.

Client-side processing

Tools that use WebAssembly (HEIC) or Canvas (WebP/AVIF) keep bytes on your device. HeicSave does not receive your image files for conversion.

What we don't limit artificially

There is no “5 files only” or “10 MB max” rule in our tools. Very large batches may still fail if your browser runs out of memory; we show a friendly warning, not a paywall.

GDPR & cookies

EU users see a cookie banner for analytics and Google AdSense. You can accept or decline. Image bytes are not part of that processing.

What we collect

Analytics (with consent) and standard server logs, not your image files. Who runs HeicSave and how we test guides: About. Questions: Contact.

Verify zero upload yourself (DevTools)

Want proof your photos never leave the device?

1. Open HEIC to JPG in Chrome or Edge.
2. Press F12 → Network tab → enable Preserve log.
3. Convert one or more HEIC files.
4. Filter by Fetch/XHR or search for upload.

You should not see requests posting your image bytes to HeicSave. You may see page JavaScript, WASM (libheif), and analytics only if you accepted cookies—those are separate from your photo data.

HeicSave has no server-side conversion endpoint. The converter also shows a collapsible Verify zero upload hint on tool pages.
