Service information

Service and Content Disclaimer

ChatPic helps you create an image link. The link is not a guarantee of confidential sharing, permanent hosting or complete deletion after expiry.

Updated

Image hosting and availability

The current ChatPic.co.uk uploader sends images through the website’s upload service to ImgBB for hosting. A provider outage, expired image, removal, changed policy or service restriction can affect an upload or an existing URL.

Keep the original image and any information you need for your own records. Do not use a temporary image URL as the only copy of important work. A no-expiry setting does not guarantee that a third-party host will retain a file forever.

Direct links and privacy limits

Anyone who has a direct image URL may be able to open, save, screenshot or forward the image. This uploader does not enforce passwords, one-time access, maximum view counts or named-recipient access. A hidden or hard-to-guess URL should not be treated as equivalent to those controls.

Optional metadata removal applies to a newly created supported copy and does not conceal the visible contents of a photograph. Expiry and deletion requests cannot take back a file a recipient has already saved. Read the private-sharing guide when choosing a sharing method.

Educational content and accuracy

Guides explain common workflows, technical limitations and questions about image sharing. They are general information, not a personalised guarantee that a particular service meets your legal, security, confidentiality or retention requirements.

Interfaces and provider rules change. Follow the controls actually shown in the tool and check primary documentation for a feature that matters to you. Report an inaccurate instruction or broken source through Contact Us, with the page URL and the passage concerned.

Other ChatPic websites and apps

ChatPic.co.uk is an independent website. Similar names or logos do not establish common ownership, shared accounts, access to archives or a relationship with the former ChatPic.org. This website cannot recover another service’s hosted files or authenticate a claimed mirror.

Historical articles should distinguish documented facts from uncertain reports. A third-party explanation of a shutdown is not proof of the original operator’s decisions, legal circumstances or data retention. See the website comparison for the identity distinction.

External links and contributed content

Links to external providers are supplied where they help explain a feature or workflow. Those providers control their own content, availability, pricing, moderation and processing. Verify the exact domain and the provider’s policies before submitting a file or personal information.

A paid contribution or other commercial relationship should be identified on the relevant article. It does not establish that ChatPic has independently verified every claim made by the contributor. Use the contact page for a correction, image concern or copyright report.

Responsibility and your rights

Upload only content you own or are authorised to distribute. Do not use the service to disclose confidential information, infringe another person’s rights or share unlawful material. The Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy explain the service in more detail.

This disclaimer does not exclude rights or liability that applicable law does not permit us to exclude.
