Privacy Policy

Last updated: January 2025

1. Introduction

Welcome to Photoboost AI Photo Editor. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring the security of your personal data. This privacy policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our application.

2. Offline-First Approach

Photoboost is designed with privacy in mind. Our offline-first architecture means that:

  • Background removal and most editing operations happen entirely on your device
  • Your photos never leave your device unless you explicitly choose to save them to cloud storage
  • No internet connection is required for core editing features
  • We do not have access to your photos or editing history

3. Data Collection

We collect minimal data to provide and improve our services:

  • Device Information: Operating system, device model, and app version for compatibility and bug fixes
  • Usage Analytics: Anonymous feature usage statistics to improve the app (can be opted out)
  • Crash Reports: Technical data when the app crashes to fix issues
  • Account Information: Email address if you create an account (optional)

4. Data Storage

All photo processing happens locally on your device. We do not store your photos on our servers. If you use cloud features, data is stored according to your chosen cloud provider's privacy policy.

5. Third-Party Services

We may use third-party services for analytics and crash reporting. These services operate under their own privacy policies and we ensure they comply with GDPR and other privacy regulations.

6. Your Rights (GDPR)

Under GDPR, you have the right to:

  • Access your personal data
  • Rectify inaccurate data
  • Request deletion of your data
  • Object to data processing
  • Data portability
  • Withdraw consent at any time

7. Children's Privacy

Our service is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 years of age.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date.
