Terms of Service

Effective Date: October 6, 2026

Welcome to PNGReducer ("we", "our", "us"). By accessing or using our website located at pngreducer.com and its associated browser-based tools (collectively, the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, you must not use our Service.

1. Description of Service

PNGReducer provides a free, browser-based image compression utility. Our tool allows users to reduce the file size of images (including JPEG, PNG, and WebP formats) directly within their web browser. Because all processing occurs client-side (on your device), PNGReducer does not upload, store, transmit, or have access to any images you process.

2. User Conduct and Acceptable Use

You agree to use PNGReducer only for lawful purposes. While our service operates entirely on your local machine, you are solely responsible for the images you choose to compress and the ways in which you use the output files. You agree not to:

• Use the Service in any way that violates any applicable federal, state, local, or international law or regulation.
• Attempt to decompile, reverse engineer, or maliciously exploit the website's source code or proprietary compression algorithms.
• Use automated scripts, bots, or scrapers to interact with the website in a manner that strains our server infrastructure or bandwidth.

3. Intellectual Property Rights

You retain full ownership and all intellectual property rights to any images you process using PNGReducer. Since files are never uploaded to our servers, we do not claim any copyright, license, or distribution rights over your content.

However, the design, branding, text, custom algorithms, and layout of pngreducer.com are the exclusive property of PNGReducer and are protected by international copyright laws. You may not reproduce or duplicate the visual design or proprietary functions of this website without explicit permission.

4. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Service is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis. PNGReducer makes no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, regarding the operation of the Service, the accuracy of the compression output, or the suitability of the compressed files for your specific needs.

While we strive to provide excellent lossy compression, we do not guarantee that the resulting images will be completely free of visual artifacts, nor do we guarantee that every image will hit an exact target file size (e.g., exactly 80KB).

5. Limitation of Liability

In no event shall PNGReducer, its creators, developers, or affiliates be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including without limitation, loss of profits, data, use, goodwill, or other intangible losses, resulting from:

• Your access to or use of or inability to access or use the Service;
• Any unexpected quality degradation of compressed images;
• Any unauthorized access to or alteration of your transmissions or data (though local processing mitigates this risk).

6. Modifications to the Service and Terms

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service (or any part thereof) at any time without notice. We also reserve the right to update these Terms of Service at any time. Your continued use of the Service after any modifications to these Terms indicates your acceptance of the updated terms.

7. Contact Information

If you have any questions, concerns, or feedback regarding these Terms of Service or our compression tools, please feel free to reach out. Since we are a free, client-side utility, support is provided on a best-effort basis.
