When you use PhotoTune: Photo Editor (“PhotoTune,” “the App,” or “Service”), you trust us with your information. We are committed to protecting your privacy and ensuring you have control over your data. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, and how you can manage or delete it.
1. Information We Collect
We collect information to provide and improve PhotoTune’s features, such as photo enhancement, background removal, cropping, compressing, resizing, color adjustments, and applying filters. The types of information we collect include:
1.1 Information You Provide
  • Account Information: When you sign up for PhotoTune (e.g., via email or third-party services like Google or Facebook), we collect personal information such as your name, email address, and profile picture (if provided).
  • User Content: Photos you upload to edit, including metadata (e.g., timestamps, device info, or location data if enabled).
  • User Input: Settings or preferences you choose, such as filter selections or editing adjustments.
1.2 Information We Collect Automatically
  • Device Information: Details like device model, operating system, unique device identifiers, IP address, and app version.
  • Usage Data: Information about how you interact with PhotoTune, such as features used (e.g., cropping, filters), session duration, and crash reports.
  • Cookies and Similar Technologies: We use cookies or similar technologies to improve your experience, save preferences, and analyze app performance. You can manage cookie settings through your device or browser, though disabling cookies may affect functionality.
1.3 Information from Third Parties
  • If you sign in using Google or other third-party services, we may receive limited profile information (e.g., email, profile picture) to authenticate and personalize your experience. We do not share or sell this information.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use your information to deliver, improve, and personalize PhotoTune’s services, including:
  • Providing Features: To process your photos for enhancement, background removal, cropping, resizing, compression, color adjustments, and filter application.
  • Improving the App: To analyze usage patterns and optimize performance, such as fixing bugs or developing new features.
  • Personalization: To save your preferences (e.g., favorite filters) and provide a tailored experience.
  • Analytics: To understand how users engage with PhotoTune, using tools like Google Analytics for aggregated, non-personal data.
  • Customer Support: To respond to your inquiries or resolve issues.
We do not use your photos or videos for advertising purposes, nor do we sell your personal information to third parties.
3. How We Share Your Information
We only share your information in the following cases:
  • With Your Consent: If you choose to share edited photos publicly or with others via PhotoTune’s sharing features.
  • With Service Providers: We work with trusted partners (e.g., cloud storage providers) to process data securely on our behalf. These partners are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and cannot use your data for other purposes.
  • For Legal Reasons: To comply with applicable laws, regulations, or legal processes, such as responding to a court order.
  • For Security: To protect against fraud, abuse, or unauthorized access.
We do not share your photos or personal data with advertisers, data brokers, or other third parties for marketing purposes.
4. Your Choices and Controls
PhotoTune provides tools to manage your privacy:
  • Account Settings: Update or delete your account information at any time through the app’s settings.
  • Photo Management: Choose which photos to upload or delete from PhotoTune. We do not access your device’s photo library without permission.
  • Cookies: Configure your browser or device to block cookies, though this may limit some features.
  • Data Deletion: Request deletion of your data via the app or by contacting us at support@phototuneapp.com. We will honor deletion requests unless required to retain data for legal purposes.
5. Data Security
We use industry-standard security measures, such as AES-256 encryption for data in transit and at rest, to protect your information from unauthorized access, loss, or alteration. However, no system is completely secure, and we encourage you to use strong passwords and enable two-factor authentication (2FA) where available.
6. Data Retention
We retain your data only as long as necessary to provide PhotoTune’s services or comply with legal obligations. Photos you upload are stored temporarily for processing and deleted after editing unless you choose to save them in your account. You can delete your data at any time, and we will remove it promptly, subject to legal requirements.
7. Third-Party Services
PhotoTune may integrate with third-party services (e.g., Google Photos API) for features like cloud storage or sharing. These services have their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them. We ensure third-party partners comply with our privacy standards and do not access your data without your consent.
8. International Data Transfers
PhotoTune operates globally, and your data may be processed in servers outside your country. We comply with applicable data protection laws, including GDPR for EU residents, and ensure appropriate safeguards for international transfers.
9. Children’s Privacy
PhotoTune is not intended for users under 13 (or 16 in certain jurisdictions). We do not knowingly collect data from children. If we learn that a child’s data has been collected, we will delete it immediately.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our services or legal requirements. We will notify you of significant changes via the app or email. Your continued use of PhotoTune after updates signifies your acceptance of the revised policy.
