PRIVACY & STORAGE
A clear view of your data.
GIF Workspace’s core editing pipeline processes imported media in your browser. Account access and billing use online services.
Product documentation · Updated 2026-10-19
Media and projects
The core editor does not upload your imported media as part of its local edit and export workflow. Projects are saved in browser IndexedDB. Portable backups are downloaded files. This is not a cloud backup service.
Accounts and payments
Base44 provides account and application services. Membership verification uses your account identity. When enabled, Stripe handles checkout and subscription billing; card details are entered on Stripe’s hosted pages.
External AI tools
Opening TIG takes you to a separate service. Uploading a file there follows that service’s processing and privacy practices. This editor does not silently submit your project for paid AI processing.
Browser storage and site services
The app uses local project storage and a service worker for application resources. The hosting platform can process technical requests and app activity. Local editing does not mean that account or hosting requests are offline or anonymous.
Control your files
Use Projects to download backups or delete saved projects. Clearing the site’s browser data also removes locally stored work. Keep a portable backup before doing so.
Optional follow-up emails
You can choose to receive editing tips, trial reminders and membership offers using your signed-in account email. Opt-in is optional, recorded with a timestamp, and can be withdrawn in email preferences or through the unsubscribe link in any follow-up. Transactional account messages are separate.
