Privacy Policy / Terms of Service

This Privacy Policy was updated on 9th May 2024

 

This is the Privacy Policy of the " AI Photo Enhancer - Pic Editor " app (hereafter referred to as " Pic Editor" or "App"), developed by Yana Sydorenko (hereafter referred to as "We" or "Our").

It describes how we collect, use, process, and secure your personal data when you use our App. Unless otherwise defined in this Privacy Policy, terms used in this Privacy Policy have the same meanings as in our Terms and Conditions.

We create App that can be downloaded freely, functioning on the basis of an advertising model. In general, if you do not want us to use your data to tailor the ads that are displayed within the App, you can choose to use a version that does not contain advertising.

By using the App, you are consenting to our processing of data as set forth in this Privacy Policy.

We value our customers and are committed to protecting their privacy and informing them as to how their personal data will be used. This Privacy Policy sets forth the privacy standards that the Company utilizes to collect, retain, and use personal data obtained from individuals located within the European Union (“EU”), the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and Switzerland, as well as from individuals located in the United States and elsewhere in the world. It is the Company’s policy to respect, and protect, personally identifiable information obtained from individuals as set forth in this Privacy Policy. We collect data that you provide to us directly as well as data that is automatically collected as a result of your use of the App. This Privacy Policy does NOT apply to other websites or apps to which we may otherwise link, or to other companies, third-party vendors who provide services to us, or entities who might be listed as third-party contacts on the App, each of which may be governed by their own privacy policies. This Privacy Policy also does not apply to information we may obtain from other sources about you. By using the App and/or by contacting us and providing any personal data, you consent to the collection, transfer, storage, disclosure and use of information by us in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If we decide to change our Privacy Policy, we will post those changes on this page.

 1. What data do our Apps obtain?

1.1   We collect data about you and the way the Apps are used in various ways.

a. Automatically Collected Data – The Apps collect certain data automatically, such as: the type of device you use, device identifiers, such as the resettable advertising identifier assigned to your device, the IP address of your device, geographical data such as the location of your device, your operating system, Wi-Fi mac address in your area, the type of internet browsers you use, data connection status and success/failure of connection, and data about the way you use the App, installed applications on your device, and other non-personal data as reasonably required by us to enhance our services. If you activated ‘Location’ in the settings of your device and allowed the App to collect data about the precise location of your device, the App will collect such data. Furthermore, we may collect location data using network triangulation, GPS, and Wi-Fi IP address to determine your general device location. We also may collect location data and other diagnostic data through the Apps for network analytics and troubleshooting purposes.

b. User-Provided Data – The App obtains the data you provide when you download and use the App. We may ask that you provide: (a) your name, email address, age, username, password, and other registration data; (b) transaction-related data, such as when you make purchases, respond to any offers, or download or use Apps from us; (c) data you provide us when you contact us for help; and (d) data you enter into our system when using the App, such as contact data.

c. We may also get data from other sources and may combine it with data collected about you.

2. Data Sharing and Advertising

2.1   To the extent feasible, we only use your data in an anonymized, hashed or obfuscated way. We only use the personally identifiable information to the extent required to provide our services.

2.2   We may share your data with third parties in the ways that are described in this Privacy Statement. We may disclose  your data (a) as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena or similar legal process, (b) when we believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request, (c) with our trusted services providers who work on our behalf, which do not have an independent use of the data we disclose to them, and have agreed to adhere to the rules set forth in this privacy statement, and (d) with third-party advertising networks and analytics companies as described below.

2.3   We may use and share the data, including the Automatically Collected Data and the User-Provided Data, in an anonymized, hashed or obfuscated way for purposes of advertisement by us or our partners. We do not pass any personally identifiable data to ad networks or advertisers. The data may be used for the purpose of serving users advertisements based on particular users’ presumed interests, and also to present advertisements in third-party applications or other platforms. We work with advertisers and third-party advertising companies that collect data about how you interact with advertising and content provided in the App, which helps us keep the cost of the App free. Advertisers and advertising companies use some of the data collected by the App, including the advertising identifier assigned to your device to serve advertisements that are targeted to your interests in the App. These third parties may also obtain anonymous data about other applications you’ve downloaded to your device, the websites and applications you visit, and your location in order to help analyze user behaviour and serve targeted advertising on the App and on other applications and websites. We may use and share your location data to provide you with localized data, including localized advertising, within the App. To learn how to opt-out of the use of data collected from the App for targeted advertising purposes, please see the ‘Managing Your Data’ section of this Privacy Policy.

2.4   We may work with analytics companies to help us understand how the App is being used, such as the frequency and duration of usage.

2.5   If you have allowed us to collect data about your precise location by activating ‘Location’ in the settings of your device, we may share it with our ad network partners in order to tailor the ads that are displayed within the App

2.6   The paid versions of our Apps generally do not contain advertising and will not use your data for this purpose. In the Apps that do not contain advertising, the data collection software will still collect data but will not use it to serve you interest-based advertising

3. Managing Your Data

3.1   You can stop all collection of data by the App easily by uninstalling the App. You may use the standard uninstall processes as may be available as part of your device or via the application marketplace or network.

3.2   You may at any time opt-out from further allowing the App to have access to your precise location data by deactivating ‘Location’ in the privacy settings on your device.

3.3   Most modern devices provide advertising identifiers. These identifiers have different names depending on the brand of your device. For example, they are called Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA) on iOS/Apple devices. These operating systems let you see your advertising identifier in the settings of your device, and you control how it is used. It includes options for you to change your identifier and opt-out of cross-app advertising. The features or functionality hereof may change at the discretion of the operating systems. To opt-out of the use of data collected by our advertising partners across different applications to serve ads that are targeted to your interests, please consult the settings available on your device (for instance ‘Limit Ad Tracking’ on your iOS/Apple device).

3.4   The NAI and the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) offer opt-out tools to assist you in managing your choices for participating companies. For more data about these tools please visit: https://networkadvertising.org/choices/ or https://aboutads.info.

4. Business Transfers

4.1   Data about you may be disclosed as part of any merger, acquisition, or sale of company assets. In the unlikely event of an insolvency, bankruptcy or receivership, your data may also be transferred as a business asset.

5. Children

5.1   We do not use the Apps to knowingly solicit data from or market to children under the age of 16. If a parent or guardian becomes aware that his or her child has provided us with data without their consent, he or she should contact us at plantpicinfo@gmail.com. We will delete or anonymize such data from our files within a reasonable time.

6. Security

6.1 We are committed to protecting the confidentiality of your personal information. We maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards to protect the information we process and maintain. For example, we restrict access to that information to authorised employees and contractors who need to know that information in order to operate, develop or improve our applications. Please be aware that while we strive to maintain reasonable security measures for the personal information we process and maintain, no security system can prevent all potential security breaches. As noted above, we use anonymisation techniques to limit the use of personally identifiable information as much as possible.

7. Data Retention Policy

7.1  We will retain User-Provided Data for as long as you use the App and for a reasonable time thereafter. We will retain Automatically Collected data for up to 12 months and thereafter we may store it in aggregate. If you’d like us to delete User Provided Data that you have provided via the App, please contact us at plantpicinfo@gmail.com and we will respond in a reasonable time. Please note that some or all of the User-Provided Data may be required in order for the App to function properly.

8. Subscriptions

8.1   Some features of the App may be available to you free of charge, while other services and products may require a subscription or in-app purchase. To access the premium features of the App, which include additional features such as (but not limited to) no ads, premium support, instant updates, you must pay for an automatically renewable subscription through the Apple iTunes store.

8.2 Auto-renewal subscriptions for Apps are purchased through an iTunes auto-renewal subscription. This means that your subscription will automatically renew at the end of the subscription period.
