Terms of Use

Last updated: March 2026 · Effective immediately

Welcome to pixelsTools. These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of pixelstools.online and all tools, content, and features available on it. By using our website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use our service.

We have written these terms in plain language so they are easy to understand. If anything is unclear, please contact us and we will be happy to explain. We believe in being honest and transparent with our users — that is the foundation everything at pixelsTools is built on.

1. Who We Are

pixelsTools is a free, browser-based toolset for image processing and document conversion. We provide tools including image compression, AI background removal, image format conversion, favicon generation, Word to PDF conversion, PDF to Word conversion, and an online word editor.

Every tool on pixelsTools runs entirely inside your web browser. Your files are never uploaded to a remote server, never stored anywhere online, and never seen by us. All processing happens locally on your device using modern browser technologies including WebAssembly, the Canvas API, and Web Workers. This is not just a privacy policy promise — it is how the technology fundamentally works.

pixelsTools is supported by advertising through Google AdSense. The ads you see on our pages are what allow us to keep every tool free for everyone, forever.

2. Acceptance of These Terms

By visiting, browsing, or using pixelstools.online in any way, you confirm that you have read and agree to be bound by these Terms of Use, along with our Privacy Policy. These terms apply to all visitors, users, and anyone who accesses or uses our service.

If you are using pixelsTools on behalf of a company or organisation, you confirm that you have the authority to accept these terms on their behalf.

We may update these Terms of Use from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of pixelsTools after any change means you accept the updated terms. We encourage you to check back periodically.

3. Our Tools and Services

pixelsTools currently offers the following free tools:

We reserve the right to add, modify, suspend, or discontinue any tool at any time. We will aim to give advance notice of significant changes where possible.

5. Your Files and Ownership

Each is used under its respective open-source licence (MIT, Apache 2.0, or similar). We are grateful to these projects and the developers behind them.

7. Advertising and Third-Party Services

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or limitation of liability, so parts of the above may not apply to you in full.
