1. Scope of this notice
This notice applies to information connected with the provision, maintenance, support, and measurement of the App. It covers image processing carried out at your request, support communications, purchase-related handling, limited technical records, security-related processing, and the use of service providers that help us keep the product operational.
2. Product model and media handling
The App is built as a photo editing utility. Its ordinary purpose is to improve the quality of a picture, remove its background, add colour to a monochrome original, retouch details, repair damaged photographs, and apply crops and colour presets.
Several of these functions depend on machine learning models that run on processing infrastructure rather than inside the device. For those functions, the picture you select is transmitted for the duration of the edit and the result is returned to your device. That is the mechanism by which the feature works, and this notice describes it plainly rather than implying otherwise.
That distinction matters in the other direction as well. We are not presenting the App as a product whose workflow depends on assembling your library on our servers. A file enters processing because you chose a tool and a picture; nothing is scanned, indexed, or gathered in the background, and no archive of your media is maintained on our side.
3. Information you intentionally send us
Two kinds of information reach us because you decided to send them.
The first is a picture submitted for editing, together with the tool and settings you selected and a reference used to return the result to the correct session. No name, email address, or account identifier accompanies it, because the App has no accounts.
The second is support correspondence. If you write to us, we may receive your email address, the contents of your message, and any details or attachments you choose to provide. We use that information to respond to your request, investigate reported issues, maintain support history where appropriate, and address subscription or technical questions.
4. Technical records generated by app operations
Like most modern mobile software, the App may generate a limited stream of operational data needed to understand whether the product is functioning properly. Depending on configuration and service integrations, that may include software version, device class, operating system version, locale indicators, crash traces, diagnostic events, subscription state signals, and broad interaction records that help explain stability and feature performance.
We treat these records as service-operation information. They are used to run and improve the product, and they do not carry the content of the pictures you edit.
5. Information categories we do not broadly claim
We do not describe ordinary use of the App as requiring access to messages, contacts, browsing activity, precise location, or unrelated private files. Reading the photo library beyond the specific file you open is not part of how the App works.
Nor do we describe ordinary use as a process in which your pictures are retained after an edit is complete. A submitted file and the result produced from it are removed from the processing environment once the result has been delivered to your device, and neither is used to train or refine models.
6. Why limited operational information may be used
- to carry out the edit you requested and return it to the device that asked for it;
- to keep the App available, stable, and responsive;
- to detect malfunctions, crashes, and compatibility issues;
- to support subscriptions, entitlements, and purchase restoration;
- to understand aggregate campaign and install performance;
- to reduce abuse, unauthorized activity, and fraudulent behavior, including automated use of the processing service;
- to make product decisions based on operational evidence.
7. External providers that help run the service
We may use outside providers for image processing, infrastructure, diagnostics, analytics, attribution, and subscription administration. These providers may process limited service-related information in line with their roles.
- Firebase may be used for analytics and diagnostics (privacy policy).
- RevenueCat may be used for subscription handling (privacy policy).
- Adjust may be used for attribution and campaign reporting (privacy policy).
Providers involved in analytics, diagnostics, billing, and attribution receive technical and commercial signals only and are not given the pictures you edit. Each provider operates under its own terms and policies. Their use does not change the basic description of the App's operating model given above.
8. Legal grounds that may apply
Where the law requires a legal basis, processing may be grounded on factors such as our legitimate interests in maintaining, securing, analyzing, and improving the App, and where relevant, the need to provide functions or support that you request. Applicable law may impose additional requirements in specific jurisdictions, and this notice should be read accordingly.
9. Narrow-use philosophy
Our approach is to keep the information footprint proportionate to the service being provided. We aim to avoid collecting categories of information that do not materially help us operate, support, secure, or account for the App, and to hold a submitted picture no longer than the edit itself requires.
10. Pictures of other people
Where a picture shows someone other than yourself, the decision to edit it is yours, and so is the responsibility for whatever permission that requires where you live. The App is a tool operated by you; we do not identify, recognise, or catalogue anyone appearing in a submitted file.
11. App Store purchases and transaction review
If you purchase a subscription or other in-app content through Apple's App Store, the payment itself is processed within Apple's billing environment. We do not store full payment card details in our own systems.
In limited cases, a platform operator may request contextual information while evaluating a refund, billing dispute, or account-related issue. If that occurs, we may provide only the specific service-side details reasonably necessary for that review, such as subscription status or basic entitlement history.
12. Cross-border processing
Some providers or technical partners involved in operating the App may handle relevant information in countries outside your own. When such transfers or remote processing occur, we seek to rely on safeguards appropriate to the relationship and the legal framework involved.
13. Retention logic
Information is not kept forever simply because it exists. Retention depends on why the information was created or received. A picture submitted for editing is removed once the result has been returned. Support correspondence may be kept to preserve context, technical logs may be retained for debugging and security purposes, and purchase-related records may be stored for compliance, accounting, and dispute-resolution needs. When those reasons no longer justify continued storage, records may be deleted, reduced, or de-identified.
14. Security and risk reduction
We use reasonable measures intended to reduce unauthorized access, misuse, loss, and alteration. Those measures may include encrypted transmission between the App and the processing environment, administrative controls, technical protections, provider due diligence, and internal process limitations. No digital system can promise zero risk, but we work to apply safeguards appropriate to the App's scale and function.
15. Disclosures required or justified by circumstance
Information may be disclosed where reasonably necessary to comply with law, respond to lawful requests, protect users or services, investigate abuse, enforce our terms, defend legal claims, or support a business event such as a merger, financing transaction, restructuring, or transfer of assets.
16. Rights and requests
Depending on the rules that apply to you, you may have rights involving access, correction, deletion, objection, restriction, or portability. These rights may be subject to conditions, exceptions, or verification steps. Because the App has no accounts and submitted pictures are not retained after processing, requests generally concern technical and purchase records rather than image content. We review requests in good faith and respond as required by applicable law.
17. Children's data
The App is not intended to be used in a way that violates laws protecting children. If we become aware of a situation requiring special handling or removal under applicable law, we will address it in line with the circumstances and the legal requirements involved.
18. Future revisions
We may revise this Policy to reflect product updates, legal developments, provider changes, or clearer explanations of our practices. The most current version will be posted here with its effective date.
