AI Avatar Maker Privacy Policy

AppyHigh Technology LLP built the AI Avatar Maker app as a Freemium app. This SERVICE is provided by AppyHigh Technology LLP at no cost and is intended for use as is.


This page is used to inform visitors regarding our policies with the collection, use, and disclosure of Personal Information if anyone decided to use our Service.


If you choose to use our Service, then you agree to the collection and use of information in relation to this policy. The Personal Information that we collect is used for providing and improving the Service. We will not use or share your information with anyone except as described in this Privacy Policy.


The terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms and Conditions, which are accessible at AI Avatar Maker unless otherwise defined in this Privacy Policy.


Information Collection and Use

For a better experience, while using our Service, we may require you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information. The information that we request will be retained by us and used as described in this privacy policy.

Identifiers and internet and network activity information (such as IP address, device model, device type, OS version, device language, device name, country set in the device settings, information about your interactions with the app, and unique identifiers, including IDFA or AAID), and other information necessary to enable you to use the app.


The app processes the images you upload to generate AI Avatars (including images of your face) and the images generated by the app (e.g. the AI avatars that you created). The technologies implemented in the app do not allow unique identification or authentication of a single user starting from the images uploaded to the app or from the AI avatars generated by the app, nor is it our intention to train the technologies to do so. This means that we only use the app to create the requested AI avatar, based on the face images shared by the user. In order to be able to generate AI avatars the app needs access to your photo library and to your camera, but this access will require that you grant a specific permission through a request that will appear on your mobile device.

What face data does our app collect?


Our app collects facial data from the photos uploaded by users in order to make our model learn about the new subject or the new user in our case. Our machine learning algorithms generate digital portraits based on the pictures users upload. After the model training is done which usually takes 20 mins, we delete the pictures from our servers in 24 Hours. We don't process the generated images further, and don't use them.


 How do we use the collected face data? Provide a complete and clear explanation of all planned uses of this data.


We use the collected face data to generate the user's personalised AI avatar. The data is processed through our AI algorithms to create a 3D model of the user's facial features, which is then used to create the avatar. We do not use this data for any other purposes. 


 Will the data be shared with any third parties? Where will this information be stored?


We do not share any collected face data with third parties. The data is stored securely on our servers and is accessible only to authorised personnel. We take appropriate measures to ensure the safety and privacy of all collected data.


How long will face data be retained?


As soon as the avatars are generated, the user’s photos are deleted in 24 Hours and the associated trained models are erased permanently from our servers after 30 days. We keep these trained models for 30 days as we offer users to recreate their avatars without uploading pictures for the period of 30 days from their order purchase date



The app does use third-party services that may collect information used to identify you.
