Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-10-20

This Privacy Policy explains how FreeStock ("we", "us") collects, uses and protects information when you visit https://stock4photo.com.

Information we collect

• Usage data. We keep anonymous, aggregated counters to understand which photos are popular: how many times a photo page was opened, how many times it was downloaded, which search terms were used (including searches that returned nothing) and which categories were browsed. These are plain numbers stored per calendar day with no identifier attached — no IP address, no browser/user-agent string, no cookie value, no session or account is ever linked to them, so a stored counter cannot be traced back to a visitor. Counters are de-duplicated in memory only, are kept for a limited period (currently about 400 days) and are then deleted automatically.
• Server logs. Our web server and CDN may log IP address, browser type and referring page for security and abuse prevention.
• Cookies. We use a session cookie for the administration area only. Visitors browsing the public site do not need an account.

Advertising and Google AdSense

We use Google AdSense to display advertising. Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites.

• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
• You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
• You can also opt out of third-party vendor cookies for personalised advertising at www.aboutads.info.
• For more information, see How Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Analytics

We may use privacy-respecting analytics to measure traffic. Aggregate reports contain no personally identifying information.

Children's privacy

This site is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them.
