Your privacy, in plain English.

1 Information We Collect

We collect only the information required to run the app, process your generations, manage your subscription, and keep the service secure.

2 On-Device Face Detection

Before your photo is uploaded, PhotoGenAI uses Google's ML Kit Face Detection to locate and frame faces so the transformation looks its best. This step runs entirely on your device — the face-detection analysis itself never leaves your phone or gets sent to our servers. Only the cropped photo you confirm is uploaded for processing.

3 How We Use Your Information

• To generate the AI-transformed image you requested
• To create, maintain, and secure your account
• To track and enforce free-tier and subscription generation quotas
• To process subscription purchases and restore them across devices
• To send you service notifications (e.g. "your image is ready")
• To screen uploaded photos for content that violates our Content Guidelines before processing
• To detect, investigate, and prevent fraud, abuse, or violations of our Terms of Service
• To improve app performance, reliability, and features

We do not sell your photos or personal information to third parties, and we do not use your photos to train third-party AI models beyond the single generation request you initiate.

4 Third-Party Services We Use

PhotoGenAI is built on a small number of trusted infrastructure providers. Each only receives the minimum data it needs to perform its function:

Each provider processes data under its own privacy policy and applicable data-processing agreements. We choose providers who meet industry-standard security and privacy practices.

5 Data Retention

We keep your account information and generation history for as long as your account is active, so you can revisit past creations. Uploaded source photos and generated images are retained until you delete them or delete your account. Diagnostic logs are retained for a limited period for security and debugging purposes, then automatically purged.

6 Sharing & Disclosure

We share information only in the following circumstances:

• With the service providers listed in Section 4, strictly to operate the app
• To comply with a legal obligation, court order, or valid governmental request
• To protect the rights, property, or safety of PhotoGenAI, our users, or the public
• In connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, with continuity of this policy's protections

We do not share your photos or personal data with advertisers, data brokers, or unrelated third parties for their own marketing purposes.

7 Your Rights & Choices

Depending on your location, you may have the right to:

• Access the personal data we hold about you
• Correct inaccurate profile information, from the Profile screen
• Delete your account and associated data (see Section 8)
• Export a copy of your data by contacting us
• Withdraw consent for notifications or ad personalization via your device settings

To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details in Section 14.

8 Account Deletion

You can delete your account at any time from Profile → Delete Account inside the app — no need to email us. When you request deletion:

• Your account is immediately deactivated and scheduled for deletion
• Your profile, generation history, and stored photos are permanently purged from our systems within 30 days
• Backups containing your data are cycled out on our standard backup rotation schedule

9 Advertising

Free-tier users can watch rewarded video ads, served through Google AdMob, to unlock additional generation credits. AdMob may use your device's advertising identifier to serve and measure ads. You can reset or limit ad tracking at any time from your device's system privacy settings (iOS: Settings → Privacy & Security → Tracking; Android: Settings → Privacy → Ads). Subscribing to a paid plan removes the need to watch ads for credits.

10 Data Security

We use industry-standard safeguards to protect your data, including encryption in transit (TLS), access controls and row-level security on our database, and authenticated, scoped access to storage buckets. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we work to protect your information using commercially reasonable measures appropriate to the sensitivity of the data.

11 International Data Transfers

Our infrastructure providers may process and store data on servers located outside your country of residence, including in the United States and the European Union. Where this occurs, we rely on our providers' standard contractual safeguards to ensure your data remains protected in line with this policy.

12 Children's Privacy

PhotoGenAI is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, contact us and we will promptly delete it.

13 Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. We'll update the "Last updated" date above, and for material changes we'll notify you in-app before they take effect.
