• Photos and Camera Access: If you choose to provide us with photos of your skin, we will use these photos to analyze your skin and provide you with personalized skincare recommendations. This is a core functionality of our application. We will only use these photos for this purpose and will not share or use them for any other reason without your consent.
All personal information that you provide to us must be true, complete, and accurate, and you must notify us of any changes to such personal information.

• IP address
• Browser and device characteristics
• Operating system
• Language preferences
• Referring URLs
• Device name

2. Facial Data Collection & Usage
SkinMama collects facial images that users voluntarily provide within the app for the sole purpose of skin analysis. Each time a photo is required, the app explicitly requests access and consent. We do not capture any images without the user’s active participation.
The collected facial data is used to:
• Provide Personalized Recommendations: Analyze facial images to recommend skincare routines and products tailored to the user's unique skin profile. • Generate Skin Scores: Evaluate aspects such as hydration, acne severity, and skin texture to help users monitor changes over time.
These insights are non-medical and are not intended as a substitute for professional dermatological advice.
• Face data is stored temporarily and securely on servers hosted by Supabase (located in Singapore). • All images are encrypted during transmission and storage. • Face data is retained in the user's account unless manually deleted by the user. • Users can delete their face images at any time via the Settings page. • If a user deletes their account, all associated face data and personal information will be permanently deleted.
SkinMama may transmit user-provided images to a third-party AI service solely for the purpose of real-time skin analysis. The third party: • Processes data only for the specific request. • Does not retain, share, or use the data for model training or analytics.
Apart from this, we do not share, sell, or disclose facial data to any other third parties.
• Consent is obtained at each instance of image submission. • Users can withdraw consent at any time and request deletion of previously submitted data. • The app includes in-app tools to manage image storage and deletion.
3. How We Process Your Personal Information (EU/UK Users)
If you are located in the EU or UK, we rely on the following legal bases to process your personal information under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK GDPR:
• Consent: We process your information if you have given us permission (i.e., consent). You can withdraw your consent at any time.
• Performance of a Contract: We process your information if necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations to you or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract.
• Legal Obligations: We may process your information where we believe it is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation (e.g., cooperating with law enforcement, defending legal rights, or as evidence in litigation).
• Vital Interests: We may process your information where we believe it is necessary to protect your vital interests or those of a third party.
4. How We Process Your Personal Information (Canada)
If you are located in Canada:
• We may process your information if you have given us express consent for a specific purpose, or in situations where your permission can be inferred (i.e., implied consent).
• You can withdraw your consent at any time by contacting us.
• In exceptional cases, we may be legally permitted under applicable law to process your information without your consent (e.g., if collection is in an individual’s interest and consent cannot be obtained in a timely way, for fraud detection/prevention, if required by law, etc.).
5. What Are Your Privacy Rights?
Depending on where you are located (e.g., EEA, UK, Canada), you may have certain rights under data protection laws. These can include:
1. Request access and obtain a copy of your personal information.
2. Request rectification or erasure.
3. Restrict the processing of your personal information.
4. If applicable, data portability.
5. Object to the processing of your personal information in certain circumstances.
If you are in the EEA or UK and believe we are unlawfully processing your personal information, you have the right to complain to your local data protection supervisory authority. For Switzerland, contact details of data protection authorities are available at https://www.edoeb.admin.ch/edoeb/en/home.html.
Withdrawing Your Consent
If we rely on your consent to process your personal information, you have the right to withdraw it at any time. To do so, contact us using the details provided at the end of this notice.
If you would like to review or change your account information or terminate your account, you can log in to your account settings or contact us. Upon your request to terminate your account, we will deactivate or delete your account and information from our active databases. We may retain certain information as needed to comply with applicable law, prevent fraud, enforce our legal terms, or troubleshoot issues.
6. Third-Party Websites
Our Services may link to third-party websites, services, or mobile applications (and/or contain advertisements from third parties). We do not endorse or guarantee these third parties, and we are not responsible for their privacy or security practices. Any data collected by third parties is not covered by this privacy notice. You should review the policies of such third parties and contact them directly with any questions.
7. Transfer of Data Internationally
Our servers are hosted with Supabase, which is located in Singapore. If you access the Services from outside Singapore, please be aware that your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed by us in Singapore or other countries where we or our service providers operate.
If you are a resident of the EEA or UK, these countries may not necessarily have data protection laws as comprehensive as those in your own country. However, we take all necessary measures to protect your personal information in accordance with this privacy notice and applicable law.
Where appropriate, we rely on the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses for transfers of personal information between our group companies and our third-party providers, requiring all recipients to protect all personal information originating from the EEA or UK in accordance with European data protection laws. These clauses can be provided upon request. We have implemented similar safeguards with our third-party service providers and partners, and further details can be provided upon request.
8. How Long Do We Keep Your Information?
We only keep your personal information for as long as necessary for the purposes set out in this privacy notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. When we no longer have a legitimate business need for your personal information, we either delete or anonymize it. If that is not possible (e.g., because it’s stored in backup archives), we securely store it and isolate it from further processing until deletion is possible.
If you provide us with photos of your skin, we will delete those photos if you delete them from your account or if you delete your account entirely. We will not retain those photos beyond the period of time in which you have an active account with us.
9. How Do We Keep Your Information Safe?
We have implemented appropriate and reasonable technical and organizational security measures designed to protect the security of any personal information we process. However, no electronic transmission over the Internet or information storage technology can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. We cannot promise that hackers or unauthorized third parties will not be able to defeat our security and improperly collect, access, steal, or modify your information.
You should only access our Services within a secure environment.
10. Do Not Track Feature
Most web browsers and some mobile operating systems include a Do-Not-Track (“DNT”) feature. Because there is no uniform standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals, we do not currently respond to them. If a standard is established, we will inform you of our practice in a revised version of this privacy notice.
