Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

AI Photo Studio ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our website and mobile applications (collectively, the "Service").

By using our Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our Service.

2. Information We Collect

2.1 Photos You Upload

Our AI photo generation tools require you to upload one or more photos of yourself or others. These photos are:

• Transmitted to our secure servers via encrypted HTTPS connections
• Processed solely for the purpose of generating your requested AI portrait
• Automatically and permanently deleted from our servers immediately after your AI image is generated
• Never used to train public AI models
• Never shared with third parties for marketing or advertising purposes
• Never stored in a way that links them to your identity beyond the generation session

2.2 Account Information

If you create an account, we collect your email address, username, and password (stored in hashed form). We do not collect payment card details directly — payments are processed by third-party payment processors who have their own privacy policies.

2.3 Usage Data

We automatically collect certain information when you use our Service, including your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, time spent on pages, and referring URLs. This data is used for analytics and service improvement only.

2.4 Cookies

We use essential cookies to operate the Service and analytics cookies (such as Google Analytics) to understand usage patterns. You can control cookie preferences through your browser settings.

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, operate, and maintain our AI photo generation Service
• Process your uploaded photos to generate AI portraits
• Manage your account and authenticate your identity
• Process transactions and send related information
• Send administrative information, such as updates and security alerts
• Respond to your comments, questions, and customer service requests
• Analyze usage patterns to improve our Service
• Comply with legal obligations

4. Biometric Data

Our Service processes facial images to generate AI portraits. We treat facial image data with the highest level of care:

• We do not create or store biometric identifiers or biometric information as defined under applicable laws
• Uploaded photos are processed transiently and deleted immediately after generation
• We do not sell, lease, trade, or profit from biometric data
• We do not use facial recognition to identify individuals across sessions

5. Data Sharing and Disclosure

We do not sell your personal information. We may share your information only in the following circumstances:

• Service Providers: We share data with trusted third-party vendors who assist in operating our Service (cloud hosting, payment processing, analytics), bound by confidentiality agreements
• Legal Requirements: We may disclose information if required by law, court order, or governmental authority
• Business Transfers: In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction
• Protection of Rights: We may disclose information to protect the rights, property, or safety of AI Photo Studio, our users, or others

6. Data Retention

Uploaded photos are deleted immediately after AI generation is complete. Account information is retained for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide services. You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting us.

7. Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including SSL/TLS encryption for data in transit, secure server infrastructure, and access controls. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of significant changes by posting the new policy on this page with an updated "Last updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
