Security

Your images, handled carefully

Compression needs your files for a moment — not forever. Here is how Comprestack treats uploads, accounts, and infrastructure. Full legal wording lives in the Privacy Policy.

Encrypted in transit

All traffic to the website and API uses HTTPS. Uploads never travel in the clear.

Deleted within 1 hour

Processed files are temporary. We automatically remove uploads and outputs on a short timer — Comprestack is not a backup or CDN.

Not used to train AI

Your images are used only to compress or convert them for you. We don’t sell them or feed them into model training.

Metadata stripped by default

Hidden photo details such as GPS are removed unless you send keep_metadata for a specific job.

Least access for staff

Team members don’t browse customer uploads. Exceptions are rare: support you request, or legal investigation of illegal content.

Account & API hygiene

Signed-in sessions use secure cookies. API keys stay on your server — rotate or revoke them anytime in the dashboard.

How we run the product

  • API keys stay server-side

    Keys begin with csk_live_ and belong in environment variables. Never ship them in a browser bundle, mobile app, or public repo.

  • Guests and accounts share one pipeline

    Signed-out visitors get a small daily allowance. Signed-in Free, Pro and Business quotas are enforced by the API. Guest files still delete within 1 hour.

  • UK GDPR

    Comprestack is the controller for account data, based in Belfast, United Kingdom. You can ask us for a copy or deletion at hello@comprestack.com.

  • Payments

    Checkout is handled by our payment partner as merchant of record. We never store card numbers on Comprestack servers.

API authentication

Who helps us process data

We only share what each provider needs to do their job. Same list as in the privacy policy.

    Sign-in, account database, usage and contact messages

  • Image processing

    Compress and convert uploads on our servers (deleted within 1 hour)

  • Vercel

    Website hosting and request logs needed to serve the site

  • Payment processor

    Merchant of record for subscriptions and image packs
