About AnimTool, Privacy Policy & Contact

How our 100% client-side animation, video, and image studio works, our zero-upload privacy policy, and how to reach us.

100% Client-Side Processing

Every tool on AnimTool runs directly inside your web browser using WebAssembly, WebCodecs, HTML5 Canvas, and Web Workers. Your device does all the decoding, editing, and encoding.

Zero File Uploads

Your videos, GIFs, images, and audio files never leave your computer or phone. Nothing is ever uploaded to, processed on, or stored by our servers.

How AnimTool Works

AnimTool (animtool.com) is a 100% static, browser-based animation, video, and image editing suite. Unlike traditional online converters that require you to upload files to a remote cloud server and wait in a processing queue, AnimTool sends lightweight application code to your browser and performs every operation locally on your device.

Under the Hood

  • WebAssembly (Wasm) AnimTool uses WebAssembly (Wasm) to run high-performance media processing tools directly in your browser. These tools are compiled from native libraries allowing them to execute with near-native speed without uploading your files to any server.
  • Native Browser APIs: High-speed frame extraction, rendering, and audio/video muxing use your browser's built-in HTML5 Canvas, WebCodecs, and Web Audio API directly in memory (ArrayBuffer).
  • Instant Cross-Tool Handoff: When you pass an edited file from one tool to another (such as from Make a GIF to Crop, Resize, Cut, or Captions), the file is transferred locally through your browser's built-in IndexedDB storage without re-uploading or leaving your device.

Privacy Policy

Our privacy policy is simple: we do not collect, upload, view, or store your media files.

  • No File Uploads: All videos, animations, images, and audio tracks you open or create in AnimTool stay strictly in your browser's local memory. Your files are never transmitted to our servers or any third party.
  • Local Browser Storage Only: AnimTool uses your browser's localStorage only to save your Dark/Light theme preference (animtool_theme) and temporary IndexedDB storage (AnimToolLocalDB) when handing a file off between tools.
  • No Tracking Cookies or Accounts: AnimTool requires no sign-up or personal information, sets no tracking or advertising cookies, and does not sell or share user data. Standard web server logs (IP address, browser user-agent, and requested URL) are retained briefly for basic security and traffic diagnostics.
