1. Who operates this service
Pixel Art Base is an independently operated website and the controller responsible for this service. For privacy questions or requests, contact us at contact@pixelartbase.com.
2. Your images stay in your browser
Images you choose are decoded, converted and exported locally in your browser. We do not upload your source images, filenames, pixel data, conversion settings or downloaded results to our servers.
