We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties. We may share information only in the following circumstances:
Ankh Workshop integrates with third-party artificial intelligence services, including but not limited to OpenAI, to provide certain features such as content generation, enhancement, and analysis. When you use these AI-powered features:
What We Share: The text prompts, queries, and content you submit for AI processing are transmitted to the third-party AI service provider.
Why We Share: This sharing is necessary to process your request and provide the AI-generated results back to you.
How We Protect You: Before each AI service request, the App displays a clear alert informing you that your data (the specific text prompt) will be sent to the third-party AI service (e.g., OpenAI). This gives you the opportunity to review and confirm before transmission.
Provider's Use of Data: The third-party AI service provider may process your data in accordance with its own privacy policy and terms of service. We encourage you to review OpenAI's Privacy Policy at https://openai.com/privacy for information on how they handle data.
Our Commitments: We instruct our AI service providers to use your data only to fulfill your specific requests and not for their own independent purposes unless required by law.
With Your Consent: When you direct us to share information with other third parties.
Service Providers: With trusted third-party vendors who perform services on our behalf (e.g., cloud storage, analytics, customer support). These providers are contractually bound to protect your information and use it only for the purposes we specify.
Legal Requirements: When required by law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request.
Business Transfers: In connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of assets—with notice to you and continued protection of your information.
Protection of Rights: To enforce our terms of service, protect our rights, privacy, safety, or property, or that of others.
Before each request to our AI-powered features, Ankh Workshop displays a prominent alert screen (as shown in our screenshots) informing you:
What specific data (your text prompt) will be transmitted
Which third-party service (OpenAI) will receive it
That you can proceed or cancel the request
You have the full right to decline any AI service request by dismissing the alert or canceling the operation.
You can review and update certain account information through your profile settings within the App.
We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include:
Encryption of data in transit and at rest
Secure servers and networks
Regular security assessments
Access controls limiting internal access to personal data
However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this Privacy Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.
When we have no ongoing legitimate business need to process your information, we will either delete or anonymize it. If this is not possible (e.g., due to backup archives), we will securely store it and isolate it from further processing until deletion is possible.
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information:
Access: Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
Correction: Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information.
Deletion: Request deletion of your personal information, subject to certain exceptions.
Restriction: Request restriction of processing your information.
Data Portability: Request transfer of your information to another service provider.
Opt-Out: Object to or opt out of certain processing activities.
To exercise these rights, please contact us at kirillzhubarov@gmail.com. We will respond to your request within 30 days or as required by applicable law.
Ankh Workshop is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

If you believe we might have information from or about a child under 13, please contact us immediately.
Your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in countries other than your own, including the United States where OpenAI and other service providers are located.
