Effective Date: June 25, 2026  ·  Last Updated: June 25, 2026

01

Who We Are

Ai Ranko (“we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website airanko.com and all tools hosted on it, including SEO analysis tools, image utilities, keyword research tools, and AI-powered content tools. We are committed to protecting your privacy and being transparent about how we handle your data.

This Privacy Policy applies to all visitors and users of airanko.com, regardless of your location.

03

How We Use Your Data

We use the data we collect for the following purposes:

  • Providing our tools and services — to process your inputs and return results (SEO analysis, image conversion, keyword research, etc.)
  • Improving the platform — understanding which tools are used most, where users encounter errors, and how to improve performance
  • Account management — if you create an account, to authenticate you and manage your preferences
  • Security and fraud prevention — detecting abuse, spam, or malicious requests
  • Communications — responding to your support enquiries or contact form messages
  • Legal compliance — meeting our obligations under applicable law
No selling of data. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes, ever.
04

Browser-Based Processing

Your files never leave your device. All image processing tools on Ai Ranko — including Image Resizer, Bulk Image Resizer, Background Remover, and AI Image Upscaler — run entirely in your browser using client-side JavaScript. Your images are processed locally and are never uploaded to our servers.

For tools that require server interaction (such as SEO analysis tools that crawl external URLs, or AI-powered text tools), only the URL or text input you provide is transmitted to our servers or to third-party AI API providers. We do not store those inputs beyond what is necessary to return results to you.

05

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to make our platform work and to improve your experience. Here is what we use:

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling analytics cookies will not affect your ability to use our tools. Where required by law (e.g. for users in the EU/UK), we will ask for your consent before placing non-essential cookies.

06

Third-Party Services

We integrate with the following categories of third-party services. Each has its own privacy policy which we encourage you to review:

  • AI API Providers — For AI-powered tools (content writing, SEO strategy, etc.), we may send your text input to third-party large language model providers. These providers are contractually required to protect your data and not use it for model training without consent.
  • Web Analytics — We use analytics services to understand how the platform is used. IP addresses are anonymised before storage.
  • Hosting Infrastructure — Our platform is hosted on cloud infrastructure providers. Data may be stored in data centres in the USA or EU, with appropriate safeguards in place.
  • Payment Processing — If you upgrade to a paid plan, payments are handled by an industry-standard payment processor. We never see or store your card details.

We do not allow any third-party service we use to use your data for their own advertising purposes.

07

Data Retention

We retain your data only for as long as necessary:

  • Tool inputs & results — Not stored beyond the duration of your session, unless you are logged in and explicitly save results.
  • Account data — Retained for as long as your account is active. You may delete your account at any time.
  • Analytics data — Aggregated usage data is retained for up to 26 months for trend analysis.
  • Support communications — Retained for up to 3 years in case of follow-up enquiries.
  • Legal & compliance records — Retained as required by applicable law.
08

Depending on where you are located, you may have the following rights regarding your personal data:

  • Access — Request a copy of the data we hold about you.
  • Correction — Ask us to correct inaccurate or incomplete data.
  • Deletion — Request that we delete your personal data (“right to be forgotten”).

  • Portability — Receive a copy of your data in a machine-readable format.

Children's Privacy

Ai Ranko is not directed at children under the age of 13 (or 16 in the EU). We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us immediately and we will delete that data.

10

Security

We take the security of your data seriously and implement appropriate technical and organisational measures, including:

  • HTTPS encryption for all data in transit
  • Hashed and salted passwords (we never store passwords in plain text)
  • Regular security reviews of our infrastructure
  • Access controls limiting who within our team can access personal data

However, no system is completely secure. If you discover a security vulnerability, please report it responsibly to us at the contact address below.
