Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 22, 2026

1. Information We Collect

Account data: Email address, name (if provided via OAuth), and hashed password.

Uploaded images: Photos you upload for blending. Source images for free users are automatically deleted after 24 hours. Paid users' images are retained until account deletion.

Usage data: Blend history, credit transactions, feature usage, and interaction patterns.

Technical data: IP address, browser type, device type, and cookies for session management.

Payment data: Processed by Stripe. We do not store credit card numbers. We receive transaction confirmations and subscription status.

2. How We Use Your Data

  • To process payments via Stripe
  • To send transactional emails (account verification, password reset)
  • To analyze usage patterns and improve the product

We do not use your uploaded images to train AI models. Images are processed through third-party AI providers (fal.ai) solely to generate your requested blends.

3. Third-Party Services

  • Supabase (database, authentication, file storage) — EU data processing available

  • Stripe (payment processing) — PCI-DSS Level 1 compliant
  • Vercel (hosting, analytics) — edge-deployed globally

4. Cookies

We use cookies for:

  • Essential cookies: Authentication session tokens (Supabase). Required for the Service to function.
  • Analytics cookies: Anonymous usage tracking (Vercel Analytics). Can be opted out via the cookie banner.

7. Data Security

We implement industry-standard security measures including: encrypted data in transit (TLS 1.3), encrypted data at rest, Row Level Security on all database tables, signed URLs for private file access, and regular security audits. However, no system is 100% secure. We will notify affected users within 72 hours of any data breach.

8. Children's Privacy

The Service is not intended for users under 16 years of age. We do not knowingly collect data from children. If we discover that a child under 16 has created an account, we will delete it immediately.
