Privacy Policy

Last Updated: December 2, 2025

1. Introduction

Welcome to Shutter Count ("we," "our," or "us"). We are committed to protecting your personal information and your right to privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we process your information when you visit our website shuttercount.co.uk.

2. How Our Technology Works

Shutter Count operates with a Serverless / Client-Side Architecture.

  • No Image Uploads: When you "upload" a photo to check the shutter count, the file never leaves your device. The processing happens entirely within your web browser's memory using JavaScript.
  • No Data Retention: Since we do not receive your files on our servers, it is impossible for us to store, copy, or view your photographs or their metadata.

3. Information We Collect

Personal Data: We do not collect names, email addresses, or phone numbers unless you voluntarily provide them when contacting us for support.

Usage Data: We use third-party analytics tools to collect standard log files. These logs may include:

  • Internet Protocol (IP) address
  • Browser type and version
  • Time and date of visit
  • Pages visited

4. Cookies and Advertising

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track the activity on our Service and store certain information.

  • Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to understand how visitors engage with our site. Google Analytics uses cookies to collect information such as how often users visit this site, what pages they visit when they do so, and what other sites they used prior to coming to this site.
  • Google AdSense: We use Google AdSense to serve advertisements. Google uses cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to our website or other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to our sites and/or other sites on the Internet.

5. Third-Party Services

To provide a functional and reliable service, we use trusted third-party Content Delivery Networks (CDNs) to load essential code libraries. These include:

  • Tailwind CSS & FontAwesome: For website styling and icons.
  • exifr / jsDelivr: For the JavaScript library used to parse image metadata.

6. Links to Other Websites

Our Service may contain links to third-party web sites or services (e.g., camera manufacturer support pages) that are not owned or controlled by Shutter Count. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party web sites or services.

7. Children's Privacy

Our Services do not address anyone under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personally identifiable information from children under 13.

8. GDPR & CCPA Rights

We respect your rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA). Since we do not hold user-uploaded data, requests to access or delete personal photo data are not applicable. However, you may contact us regarding analytics data.
