Privacy Policy

Last updated: 4 August 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Ehtisham GFX ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, shares and protects information when you visit ehtishamgfx.com (the "Site") or order thumbnail and graphic design services from us. By using the Site you agree to the practices described here.

1. Information we collect

We only collect information that is needed to run the Site and deliver design work.

  • Information you give us. Your name, email address, WhatsApp number, Discord handle, channel link and project brief when you submit an order, a review or a contact message.
  • Automatically collected data. IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, pages viewed and time on page, collected through standard server logs and analytics.
  • Cookies and similar technologies. Small files stored in your browser used for basic site function, analytics and advertising.
  • Files you upload to our free tools. Images processed by our background remover and image enhancer are processed inside your own browser and are not uploaded to, or stored on, our servers.

2. How we use your information

  • To respond to enquiries and deliver the design services you request.
  • To send order confirmations, status updates and delivery files.
  • To operate, secure, debug and improve the Site and its free tools.
  • To display advertising that helps keep our free tools free.
  • To comply with legal obligations.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their own independent marketing.

3. Cookies and third-party advertising

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this 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 this Site and/or other sites on the internet.
  • You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
  • You can also opt out of third-party vendor cookies at aboutads.info/choices or the NAI opt-out page.
  • Most browsers let you block or delete cookies in their settings. Blocking cookies may affect how parts of the Site work.

4. Third-party services we rely on

We use a small number of processors to run the Site. Each has its own privacy policy:

  • Google AdSense — advertising delivery and measurement.
  • Our hosting and database provider — site hosting and storage of order records.
  • Our transactional email provider — sending order and contact notifications.
  • The YouTube Data API — used by our inspiration tool to display public video data.

5. Your rights under GDPR (EEA/UK)

If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or Switzerland, you have the right to access, correct, delete, restrict or object to processing of your personal data, the right to data portability, and the right to withdraw consent at any time. Our legal bases for processing are contract performance (delivering ordered work), legitimate interests (site security and improvement) and consent (advertising and non-essential cookies). You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority.

6. Your rights under CCPA/CPRA (California)

California residents have the right to know what personal information is collected, used and disclosed; the right to delete personal information; the right to correct inaccurate information; and the right to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information. We do not sell personal information as defined by the CCPA. You will never be discriminated against for exercising these rights.

7. Data retention

Order records are kept for as long as needed to deliver the work, handle revisions and meet accounting obligations. Contact messages are kept until the enquiry is resolved. You can request earlier deletion at any time.

8. Children's privacy

The Site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.

9. Security

We use encrypted connections (HTTPS), access-controlled databases and server-side validation to protect your data. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected by a new "last updated" date at the top of this page.

11. Contact
