Images and extracted text
The image to text converter, screenshot converter, image preparation controls, and table reconstruction interface do not require an application endpoint that receives the selected source image.
Picture2Txt does not intentionally send image bytes, Base64 image data, extracted text, reconstructed table values, clipboard contents, or file names to a Picture2Txt application server.
Recognition engine and language files
The browser downloads the JavaScript, WebAssembly, worker code, and selected recognition-language data required by Tesseract.js. These static requests should not contain the user’s image or recognized text.
Local browser state
Object URLs, previews, image settings, progress, extracted text, and table edits exist in the active browser session. Refreshing or closing the page clears normal in-memory application state.
The browser can retain static site resources in its cache. Text copied to the clipboard and files downloaded to the device remain outside Picture2Txt after the action finishes.
File selection and clipboard access
The browser provides selected files through web file APIs. Clipboard image access depends on browser support, a secure connection, permission, focus, and user interaction. MDN explains file handling in web applications and the Clipboard API.
Downloads and exports
TXT, PNG, CSV, XLSX, SVG-container, and other supported downloads are generated from the active browser state. Users choose where the browser saves those files.
Analytics
The core tools must work without an analytics provider. If anonymous analytics are enabled, allowed events should describe actions such as tool use, extraction completion, or download clicks without including image content, extracted output, table values, file names, clipboard content, or private error payloads.
Shared and managed devices
Do not process sensitive material on a shared, public, or untrusted device. Browser history, downloads, screenshots, operating-system clipboard data, extensions, device monitoring, and local backup software may expose content outside Picture2Txt.
Children and sensitive information
Picture2Txt is a general utility. It is not designed to collect personal information from children. Users should avoid processing passwords, recovery codes, identity documents, medical records, regulated records, or confidential business documents when the device or browser environment is not trusted.
Privacy questions
Send a privacy question to admin@picture2txt.com without attaching the sensitive image or extracted text. You can also use the contact guidance.
