This Privacy Policy details our practices for collecting, using, disclosing, and protecting your information.

This includes your name, email address, and photos or images you upload to the application. Automatically Collected Information: Information about your device such as your IP address, device type, operating system, and usage details (e.g., visit time and date) may be automatically collected.
Use and Handling of Face Data Collection and Purpose: We collect face data through user-uploaded photos to train artificial intelligence models. This process enhances the user experience by enabling the generation of personalized avatars and photographs.
Storage and Retention:
Our Storage: Uploaded photos are temporarily stored on AWS S3 servers to facilitate data processing and model training.

Reason for Storage Duration: The chosen length of storage time is to ensure efficient processing while minimizing data retention. This approach aligns with our commitment to privacy and data minimization, ensuring that data is not stored longer than required for the intended purpose.
Third-Party Sharing and Practices:
Third Party: For the purpose of AI model training and inference, face data is shared with Astria, our API provider.
Reasons for Sharing: Sharing face data with Astria allows us to leverage their technology for accurate model training and to provide personalized avatars to our users.
Third Party’s Data Handling:
Face Data Storage: Astria may temporarily store face data for the purposes of model training and inference.
Retention Policy: Face data is stored by Astria for the same duration as by our application, typically within 24 hours, to ensure consistency in data management practices.
