Are my cropped images uploaded to any servers?

No. The image cropping is performed completely locally inside your web browser sandbox using HTML5 Canvas. No file is ever sent to our servers.

Does aspect ratio lock prevent free-form scaling?

Yes. Locking the aspect ratio (like 16:9 or 1:1) forces the crop bounds to scale symmetrically, preserving the selected proportions.
