Terms of use

Using ImageOptimise responsibly

These terms explain how to use our browser-based image tools fairly, safely and with respect for other people's rights.

About these terms

These terms apply when you access ImageOptimise.com, use its image-processing tools or read its website content. By continuing to use the website, you agree to use the service in accordance with these terms and applicable law.

For questions about the website or these terms, contact info@imageoptimise.com.

What the service provides

ImageOptimise provides browser-based tools for tasks that may include image compression, conversion, resizing, cropping, watermarking, target-size preparation, social media artwork and email image preparation.

Available tools, supported formats, batch limits, file-size limits and individual settings can change. Unless otherwise stated, images are processed inside your browser rather than uploaded to an ImageOptimise image-processing server.

Permitted use

You may use the tools for lawful personal, professional or business tasks involving images and other material you own or have permission to process. You are responsible for checking that your use respects copyright, confidentiality, privacy, intellectual property and any applicable third-party rights.

Your images and output ownership

You retain your existing rights in the images, artwork and other material you choose to process. ImageOptimise does not claim ownership of your original files or downloaded outputs simply because you used the website.

Any third-party rights that apply to a source image, logo, watermark or brand asset continue to apply after processing. Downloading an altered image does not create permission to use material that you did not have the right to use originally.

Prohibited activities

You must not use the website to process illegal, abusive, harmful, infringing or malicious material, or attempt to interfere with the website or another person's use of it.

Activities such as abusive automated requests, unauthorised scraping, attempts to bypass reasonable security controls, deliberate service disruption or misuse of the website's branding and intellectual property are not permitted. Nothing in these terms restricts rights that applicable law does not allow us to restrict.

Processing limits and device resources

Tools may apply limits to the number of images, supported formats, image dimensions and individual file sizes. Browser-based processing uses your own device's memory, processor and browser capabilities, so larger batches or detailed images may require additional time or resources.

You are responsible for choosing a suitable device and browser and for avoiding tasks that exceed your available resources.

Results and file quality

Compression savings, output size, visual quality and processing time depend on the original image, selected settings, output format and browser. Some files are already efficiently encoded, and a specific file-size reduction, quality level or platform outcome cannot be guaranteed.

Read the Disclaimer for important information about conversion, transparency, resizing, email compatibility and other processing limitations.

Your responsibility for original files

Keep appropriate backups of original files. Open and inspect each downloaded output before replacing a source file, publishing an image, sending an email campaign or relying on the result for an important commercial purpose.

Website ownership and branding

The ImageOptimise name, visual identity, website design, original guides, original software and other website materials belong to their respective rights holders. Accessing the service does not transfer ownership of those materials or grant permission to copy the website's branding or present the service as your own.

Availability and changes

We may update, change, pause or remove features for maintenance, security, operational or development reasons. We cannot guarantee that every tool will remain available without interruption or work identically across every browser, device or operating system.

Third-party services and references

Our guides and tools may refer to email clients, social media platforms, marketing platforms and other third-party services for practical educational purposes. References do not imply endorsement, partnership, integration or official affiliation unless explicitly stated.

Legal rights and reasonable limitations

The service is provided subject to its practical technical limitations. To the extent permitted by applicable law, ImageOptimise is not responsible for losses arising from unsupported files, unsuitable settings, unavailable services, third-party platforms or failure to retain and inspect original files.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits rights, remedies or liabilities that cannot lawfully be excluded under the consumer, privacy or other mandatory laws that apply to you.

Updates to these terms

We may revise these terms when the service, applicable requirements or operating practices change. Continued use of the website following a published update is subject to the revised terms where permitted by law.
