Images Stay in Your Browser

Living the Grid processes uploaded images locally in your browser. The app uses browser APIs and canvas rendering to read the file, create previews, match colors, and generate downloadable PNG patterns.

The app does not need to upload your source image to a server for the core grid-making workflow.

Information We Do Not Ask For

Living the Grid does not require an account, password, payment information, or social login to use the pixel grid maker.

The app does not ask for sensitive personal information to create grids.

Local Storage

The app may store display preferences, such as theme choice, in your browser local storage. This helps preserve your interface preference between visits.

You can clear local storage through your browser settings.

Third-party vendors, including Google, may use information from visits to this site and other sites to personalize ads where allowed by law and your consent choices.
