Cookie policy
In short
Lightframes does not set any cookies of its own, and it uses no analytics or advertising cookies. It does store some information in your browser (localStorage, IndexedDB, Cache Storage and a service worker) so that the editor can keep your work, remember your preferences and run offline. All of it stays on your device, we never receive it, and you can delete it whenever you want.
What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small files that a website saves in your browser. The same rules apply to other technologies that store or read information on your device, such as localStorage, IndexedDB, Cache Storage or service workers. Under Spanish law (article 22.2 of Law 34/2002, LSSI-CE) and the guidance of the Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD), they require your consent unless they are strictly necessary to provide a service you have expressly requested.
Everything Lightframes stores falls into that exception: it exists only to make the editor you are using work (keep your photos and edits, your presets and your interface settings, and load the app and its AI models). That is why the site does not show a cookie banner.
What is stored on your device
All the items below are first-party (they belong to lightframes.si), are created only by the editor running in your browser, and are never sent to us. They have no expiry date: they remain until you delete them, unless stated otherwise.
| Name | Type | Purpose | Duration | Party |
|---|---|---|---|---|
lightframes-session |
IndexedDB | Keeps a copy of the photos you have open, with their names, edits, ratings, flags and selection, so your work survives a reload. | Until you remove the photos from the editor or clear the site’s data | First-party |
lightframes-presets |
IndexedDB | Stores the presets you create or import. | Until you delete them or clear the site’s data | First-party |
lightframes.presets.v1 |
localStorage | Backup copy of your presets (original storage location, kept so a preset is never lost). | Until you clear the site’s data | First-party |

lightframes:preview-background |

Third-party services
- Analytics. We use Vercel Web Analytics to obtain aggregated visit statistics. According to Vercel, it does not use cookies.
- Fonts. The site’s fonts are served from lightframes.si itself; no request is made to Google Fonts or any other font service.
- AI model download. The object-removal model is downloaded from huggingface.co. The download is made without sending or accepting cookies.
- Links to other sites. If you click a link to Amazon.es (affiliate links), Buy Me a Coffee or GitHub, those sites may set their own cookies on their own domain, under their own cookie policies. Lightframes does not set or read those cookies. Viewing a Lightframes page does not load images or scripts from Amazon. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases, and Amazon may use cookies to attribute a purchase only after you click an affiliate link.
Advertising
There is space reserved for ads on the site, but no advertising network is currently active and no advertising cookies are used.
If we enable an advertising service in the future (for example, Google AdSense), we will update this policy first, and a consent management platform will ask for your consent before any non-essential cookie or similar technology is used. You will be able to accept, reject or configure them, and change your choice at any time as easily as you made it.
How to delete or block this data
You can delete everything Lightframes has stored by clearing this site’s data in your browser settings:
- Chrome / Edge: Settings → Privacy and security → Site settings (or Cookies and site permissions) → View permissions and data stored across sites → lightframes.si → Delete data.
