PRIVACY POLICY
Last Updated: May 21, 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how AI Album Cover Maker ("we," "us," or "our") collects, uses, transmits, and protects your information. We have designed this policy to be strictly compliant with global privacy standards, including Apple App Store Guidelines 5.1.1(i) (Data Collection and Storage) and 5.1.2(i) (Data Use and Sharing).
By using the AI Album Cover Maker application ("App"), you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.
1. WHAT DATA WE COLLECT AND HOW WE COLLECT IT
We only collect the absolute minimum data required to provide our core service.
We DO NOT require you to create an account, nor do we collect personally identifiable information (PII) such as your name, phone number, or physical address.
The specific data we collect includes:
- User Prompts: The text descriptions you manually type into the text input field within the App to describe the album cover you wish to generate.
- Style Selections: The visual style categories (e.g., Hip Hop, Synthwave, Rock, Pop) you tap and select within the App.
- Generated Images: The final image artwork created based on your prompts.
How we collect this data: This data is collected strictly through your direct, active interaction with the App's user interface.
2. HOW WE USE YOUR DATA
Your data is used exclusively for the following purpose:
- To Generate Artwork: We use your User Prompts and Style Selections solely to instruct our third-party Artificial Intelligence (AI) services to render and deliver the final album cover artwork back to your device.
We do NOT use your data for:
- Behavioral tracking
- Selling or renting to third-party advertisers
- Building personal profiles about you
3. THIRD-PARTY AI SERVICES (WHO YOUR DATA IS SENT TO)
To provide our advanced AI generation capabilities, your User Prompts and Style Selections must be transmitted to specialized third-party Artificial Intelligence providers.
Before any data is sent, the App explicitly requests your permission via an in-app consent modal.
If you grant permission, your text prompts and style selections are securely transmitted to the following third-party AI services:
- OpenAI, L.L.C.: We use OpenAI's API exclusively to translate and technically enhance your raw text prompts into highly detailed, English image-generation instructions.
- Replicate, Inc.: We use Replicate's API (and their hosted image generation models) to process the enhanced text prompt and visually render the final album cover image.
Important Note on Photos: We do NOT send your personal camera roll or photo library data to these AI services. The App only requires "Add-Only" photo access to let you locally save the generated album covers to your device. We do not read, scan, or upload your personal photos.
4. EQUAL PROTECTION GUARANTEE
We strictly mandate that any third-party service we share data with provides the same or equal protection of your data as stated in this Privacy Policy.
- Both OpenAI and Replicate employ enterprise-grade encryption for data in transit (HTTPS/TLS).
- Under their respective API terms, OpenAI and Replicate process your prompt data solely to fulfill the API request (returning the generated text/image) and do not use API data submitted by our App to train their foundational AI models.
5. LOCAL STORAGE & DATA RETENTION
- Local Gallery: The images generated for you, along with the text prompts used to create them, are saved locally on your device’s secure storage (within the App's isolated sandbox).
- Retention: Because data is stored locally on your hardware, we do not maintain a central database of your generated images. If you delete the App, your local gallery data is permanently deleted.
6. CHANGES TO THIS PRIVACY POLICY
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.
