This is done only to keep the platform reliable and secure. Pixpa does not use this information to identify or profile End-Users.
Any personal data submitted by End-Users (such as contact forms or purchases) is collected and stored only on behalf of the Pixpa User (site owner). Pixpa does not use End-User data for its own analytics, marketing, or advertising.
If you, as a Pixpa User, add third-party tools (such as Google Analytics or Facebook Pixel), you are responsible for obtaining consent, publishing a privacy policy, and ensuring compliance with applicable data protection laws.

If you're a visitor to a Pixpa-powered website (an End-User), we process data only on behalf of the site owner (Pixpa User) for the following purposes:
To deliver form submissions, purchases, or other requested services
To support website functionality (e.g., galleries, checkout, blog interactions)
To maintain platform security and performance
Pixpa does not use End-User data for its own purposes (e.g., marketing, analytics, or profiling). Any such data is handled strictly under the direction of the Pixpa User.
We only share your personal information in specific situations and always with appropriate safeguards in place.
We may process or share your data based on:
Consent – You’ve given explicit permission
Contract performance – To deliver services you’ve requested
Legitimate interests – For core business operations (e.g., fraud prevention)
Legal obligation or safety – To comply with law or protect people
We may share your personal information in the following scenarios:
With trusted service providers who perform essential business operations on our behalf — such as hosting, payment processing, customer support, analytics, and infrastructure management. These providers are bound by strict contractual obligations and are only permitted to use your information as instructed by Pixpa.
In the event of a business transfer, such as a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be disclosed or transferred as part of that transaction. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place to protect your privacy during such events.
We may share information with partners only where necessary to provide integrated services or co-branded features. We do not share information for independent third-party marketing.
When required by law or necessary to protect rights and safety, we may share your information to comply with legal obligations, court orders, or government requests. We may also disclose information to detect, prevent, or address fraud, abuse, or potential harm.
Importantly, we do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties for advertising or promotional purposes.
Yes. We use cookies and similar technologies (like pixels and web beacons) to:
Operate our website and Services securely
Analyze traffic and performance
Enable affiliate and marketing tracking (on Pixpa.com only)
These tools may be placed by us or authorized third parties. You can manage or disable cookies through your browser settings. For more, see our Cookies Policy.
Cookies are not used on Pixpa Users’ websites unless you, as a User, add your own third-party tools.
If you sign up or log in using a third-party service (e.g., Google, Facebook), we receive limited information from that provider, such as:
Your name and email address
Profile image (if shared)
Other details you’ve agreed to share
We use this information only for login and account access. We do not use it for marketing or share it further. Please review your social platform’s privacy policy for details on how they handle your data.
Where personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA), Pixpa relies on appropriate safeguards in line with data protection laws. These safeguards include Data Processing Agreements with our service providers and, where required, the use of Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or equivalent measures. These mechanisms ensure your data remains protected when handled outside your country.
For more information on cross-border data protection, see our Data Processing Addendum.
We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, or as required by law (such as for tax, accounting, or legal compliance).
When we no longer have a legitimate business reason to retain your data, we will delete or anonymize it. If immediate deletion isn’t possible (e.g., due to backups), your data will be securely stored and isolated until deletion is feasible.
We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal data against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or disclosure. These measures include encrypted connections, access controls, and regular security audits.
However, no method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee absolute security. Please use Pixpa’s services on secure networks and devices.
The Services are not intended for and may not be used by individuals under the age of 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18.
By using our Services, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old, or that you are the parent or legal guardian of a minor who is using the Services with your permission.
If we become aware that we have collected personal information from someone under 18 without appropriate consent, we will promptly delete it. If you believe this may have occurred, please contact us at support@pixpa.com.
Depending on your location, you may have specific rights under data protection laws, including the right to:
Access the personal data we hold about you
Request correction or deletion of your data
Restrict or object to how we process your data
Withdraw your consent at any time (where processing is based on consent)
Request a copy of your data in a portable format (data portability: receiving your data in a structured, machine-readable form)
If you are a California resident, you may have rights under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA). These include the right to know what categories of personal information we collect, the right to request access to or deletion of your data, and the right not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights. Pixpa does not sell or share personal information as defined under these laws.
To exercise any of these rights, please email us at support@pixpa.com. We respond to privacy rights requests within one month (30 calendar days), as required by law. This period may be extended by up to two additional months where requests are complex or numerous. In such cases, we will notify you of the extension and explain why it is needed.
To review or update your information: Log in to your Pixpa account settings.
To delete your account: You can request account deletion through your dashboard or by contacting support. Your data will be removed from active systems, except where legally required or necessary for legitimate purposes (e.g., fraud prevention or compliance).

Most browsers accept cookies by default, but you can adjust your settings to refuse or delete them. Note that disabling cookies may affect how the Services function. Learn more in our Cookies Policy.
You can opt out of marketing emails at any time by clicking “Unsubscribe” in our emails or contacting us. We will still send essential administrative messages related to your account.
Yes. We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The latest version will always be available at pixpa.com/privacy-policy, and the “Last Updated” date at the top of the page will reflect the most recent changes.
If we make significant changes, we may notify you via email or through a notice on the platform. We recommend reviewing this policy regularly.
