Who we are

ScreenStitchV is a free web app published by Apps by V at appsbyv.in. It combines overlapping screenshots into one long image.

Your screenshots

When you choose or drop image files, your browser decodes them on your device. Every step after that — building the small analysis copies, searching for the overlap, drawing the stitched result and encoding the file you download — happens inside your browser, using the Canvas API and a Web Worker.

The following are never transmitted to Apps by V or to anyone else:

• the screenshots themselves, in whole or in part
• image pixels, thumbnails or the stitched result
• file names
• image dimensions or file sizes
• anything derived from the content of your screenshots

There is no upload endpoint, no image-processing API, no remote OCR and no AI service involved. There is no server component to this app at all.

What is stored on your device

During normal use your screenshots are held in the page's memory only. They are not written to local storage, session storage, IndexedDB or a cookie. This is deliberate, and it has a visible consequence: refreshing or closing the tab clears everything and you start again from your files. The app warns you before you navigate away with work in progress.

The only things ScreenStitchV saves are small preferences, under keys beginning screenstitchv_: your light/dark theme choice, your chosen stitch preset, and your preferred export format. No image data is ever placed there.

A service worker caches the app's own program files (HTML, CSS, JavaScript and icons) so the tool works offline. It never caches, and never sees, your images.

Your original files

ScreenStitchV cannot modify the files you selected. Browsers give a web page read-only access to a chosen file, so your originals stay exactly as they are. When you export, a new image is written to your downloads.

Advertising and cookies

ScreenStitchV shows advertisements through Google AdSense to cover hosting costs. Google and its partners may use cookies or similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites, and may collect data such as your IP address and browsing activity for that purpose. Google's use of advertising cookies is described in Google's advertising policy.

You can opt out of personalised advertising at Google Ads Settings, or opt out of third-party vendors' cookies at aboutads.info/choices.

To be explicit about the boundary: no part of your screenshots is shared with advertisers, because the images never leave your device in the first place. The advertising system sees only what it would see on any web page — that a browser loaded this page.

Fonts

The page loads its typefaces from Google Fonts, which involves a request to Google's servers carrying your IP address. No other third-party service is contacted.

Error reports

If a file cannot be decoded, the message shown to you names the file and describes the problem. That message is displayed on your screen only — error details are not sent anywhere, and never contain image data.

Children

ScreenStitchV is a general-purpose utility and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, of any age, because we do not collect personal information at all.

Your rights

Rights such as access, correction, export and erasure normally apply to data a company holds about you. We hold none: there is no account, no profile and no record of your visit beyond ordinary web server logs and the advertising described above. Everything ScreenStitchV works with stays on your device and under your control.

Changes

If this policy changes, the updated version will appear on this page with a new date at the top.

Trademarks
