Privacy Policy
Last updated: 2026-09-22
This Privacy Policy describes how OCR2Excel handles information when you use https://ocr2excel.com/. It was drafted with AI assistance and reviewed by the site owner. It has not been certified by a law firm, and it is not legal advice.
Local OCR processing
The core conversion feature runs optical character recognition in your browser using WebAssembly and related engine files served from this site. Images you select for OCR are processed locally in the page session for recognition. We do not operate an OCR upload API that receives your photos for server-side recognition in this version.
Engine files (worker scripts, wasm, language data) may be downloaded from our static hosting so the browser can run recognition. Those downloads are software assets, not transmissions of your spreadsheet images to an OCR backend.
What we do not collect for OCR
We do not ask you to create an account to convert a file. We do not intentionally store the pixels of your receipts, statements, or screenshots on OCR2Excel servers as part of the recognition step described above. If you download a .xlsx or CSV file, that file is saved through your browser’s normal download mechanism onto your device.
Cookies, analytics, and logs
We may use Cloudflare Web Analytics or similar privacy-oriented analytics to understand aggregate traffic such as page views and referrers. These tools are configured to avoid collecting personal form fields from the converter because the converter does not submit OCR images to our application servers.
Standard HTTP access logs on the hosting platform may include IP addresses, user-agent strings, and requested URLs as part of operating a public website. We use that operational data to keep the service reliable and secure, not to rebuild the contents of your spreadsheets.
Future advertising
The site may display advertisement placeholders today. If Google AdSense or similar ads are enabled later, third-party ad partners may set cookies or collect device signals according to their own policies. We will update this page when ads go live. Until then, treat ad slots as empty reserved space.
Children
The service is aimed at general productivity use. It is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children through the converter.
Your choices and rights
You can choose not to use OCR2Excel at any time. Because this version has no account system, it does not collect account-class personal data such as a username, email address, or payment profile. Browser-cached engine files (worker scripts, wasm, and language data) are software assets served from this site, not records of your images; you can clear them from your browser settings whenever you like. If you have voluntarily provided any information to the owner through a contact method, you may contact the owner to request that it be deleted.
Changes
We may update this Privacy Policy as the product changes. The updated text will appear on this page with a revised effective understanding for new visits. Continued use of the site after changes means you have read the latest version available here.
Contact
A public support email is not listed while the MVP launches. Check the About page for status. Related documents: Terms, About, and the homepage.
Again: this policy is an AI-assisted draft reviewed by the owner for clarity and product accuracy. It is not a substitute for professional legal counsel.
