Privacy policy
Effective 19 October 2026. This is the formal version of everything above.
1. Who we are
Siebe Vander Henst, Felix Timmermansstraat 4, 3191 Hever, Belgium, company number BE0757785180, is the controller for the personal data described in this policy (“SVG Harbor”, “we”, “us”). For anything about your data, write to privacy@svgharbor.com.
2. What we process
Your images and SVGs: nothing. Conversion runs entirely in your browser. We never receive the files, their contents or your settings.
Request data at our host. When your browser loads a page, our host (Cloudflare, Inc.) handles the requested address, the time, the HTTP status, your browser type, the referring page and your IP address. It does this to deliver and protect the site, under its own retention rules. We receive no raw logs, only aggregated figures.
Your theme choice. If you pick light or dark mode, that choice is saved in your own browser. It never reaches us.
Emails. If you write to us, we process your email address and what you send.
We do not process special categories of personal data, and we do not build profiles of visitors.
3. Children
SVG Harbor is not aimed at children under 16, and we do not knowingly collect data about them. If you believe we hold data about a minor without consent from a parent or guardian, email privacy@svgharbor.com and we will delete it.
4. Purposes and legal bases
- Running a secure, working website by our host: our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
- Counting visits in aggregate, from our host's dashboard: our legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR).
- Answering your emails: our legitimate interest, or taking steps at your request before a contract (Art. 6(1)(b) and (f) GDPR).
- Invoicing Pro, once available: performance of a contract and our legal obligations (Art. 6(1)(b) and (c) GDPR).
We do not send newsletters, show personalised ads or analyse your behaviour on the site.
5. How long we keep it
We keep personal data no longer than needed for the purpose it was collected for.
| Data | Kept for | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Request data held by our host (IP address, browser type, requested page) | Set by Cloudflare, not by us. We receive no raw logs | Delivering and securing the site |
| Aggregated visit counts | No limit | Contain no personal data |
| Emails you send us | Until the conversation is finished, then deleted | Answering your question |
| Invoices for Pro, once available | 7 years | Belgian accounting law |
6. Sharing with others
We never sell your data. Cloudflare, Inc., a company in the United States, hosts the site and processes the request data on our behalf, under a data processing agreement. Its network delivers each page from the server nearest to the visitor, so your request may be handled outside the EU, including in the United States. Where that happens, the agreement relies on the European Commission's standard contractual clauses. We share data with others only when the law requires it. We use no analytics, advertising or tracking services of our own.
7. Cookies and local storage
SVG Harbor sets no cookies and loads no third-party scripts, so there is no cookie banner. The only thing stored on your device is your light or dark theme choice, in your browser's local storage, because you asked for it. You can clear it at any time in your browser settings.
8. Security
We take appropriate technical and organisational measures against misuse, loss and unauthorised access. Pages are served over HTTPS with a strict Content Security Policy that stops the converter from sending data anywhere. If you think your data is not properly secured or see signs of misuse, email privacy@svgharbor.com.
9. Your rights
You have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data, to restrict or object to its processing, and to receive it in a portable format. Where processing is based on consent, you can withdraw it at any time.
Send your request to privacy@svgharbor.com. If we cannot confirm from your email that the request is yours, we may ask for proof of identity; black out your photo and national register number in any copy you send. We answer as soon as possible and within four weeks.
10. Complaints
You can lodge a complaint with the Belgian Data Protection Authority (Gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit) at gegevensbeschermingsautoriteit.be.
11. Changes and contact
When SVG Harbor changes, this policy changes with it. We update the date at the top and describe important changes on this page. Questions or requests: privacy@svgharbor.com.
