General Questions
Is SHADER7 really free to use?
Yes, absolutely. All tools and articles on SHADER7 are 100% free. There are no hidden fees, subscriptions, or premium features. Our goal is to provide accessible professional tools for everyone.
Do I need to create an account to use the tools?
No. We are committed to a "privacy-first" approach, which means we do not require any registration or account creation. You can use all our tools instantly and anonymously.
Tool-Specific Questions
Are the photos from the Passport Photo Creator guaranteed to be accepted?
Our tool is designed to crop and format your photo to meet official government standards (e.g., size, head position). However, acceptance ultimately depends on the quality of the original photo you upload. Please follow our guide on taking a compliant photo (lighting, background, neutral expression) to ensure the best results.
Can I save my resume from the Resume Builder and edit it later?
Because we do not store your data, you cannot save your resume on our website to edit later. You should finalize your resume during your session and download the final PDF to your own device. You can always start a new one by re-entering your information.
Privacy & Data Questions
Do you store the photos or documents I upload/create?
No. We never upload your personal files or data to our servers. All processing (like removing a photo's background or generating a resume PDF) happens securely within your own browser. Your files and information never leave your computer.
How does SHADER7 make money if everything is free?
SHADER7 is supported by two main sources: (1) unobtrusive ads displayed on the site, managed by Google AdSense, and (2) voluntary donations from users who find our tools helpful. This allows us to cover server costs and development time without ever charging our users or selling their data.
