App Name: AI GIF Photo
Privacy Policy: (Updated : March 11, 2026)
1. Introduction
PHOTO LAB AL LTD. (“we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes what information we collect and how we use, share, and safeguard it when you use the AI GIF Photo mobile application (the “App”). By using the App, you agree to the collection and use of information as outlined in this Privacy Policy. If you do not accept these terms, we respectfully advise that you discontinue use of the App.Note: We request your explicit permission through an in-app user consent page before sending your images or text prompts to our own servers and transmitting text prompts to OpenAI for prompt refinement and processing.
OUR PRIVACY POLICY APPLIES TO ALL USERS, AND OTHERS WHO ACCESS THE APP ("USERS"). PLEASE CAREFULLY REVIEW THE FOLLOWING PRIVACY POLICY FOR INFORMATION REGARDING THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA. BY ACCESSING OR USING THE APPLICATION, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS.
2. What data we collect
We collect certain technical, usage, diagnostic, and subscription information that is necessary for the operation, maintenance, and ongoing enhancement of our services. When you use AI-powered features, the photos and text prompts you provide are securely transmitted and processed solely to generate the requested content. We do not collect payment card details, and your data is not sold, used for advertising, or processed for purposes unrelated to providing the service.
2.1. Automatically Collected and Processed Data
Device Information: We may collect the type of your device, type of operating system and its version, model and manufacturer, screen size, screen density, orientation, audio volume and battery, device memory usage, mobile carrier, network provider, network type, IP address, timestamp and duration of sessions, speed, and browser.
Analytics and Usage Data: We use Google Firebase Analytics and related tools to collect non-personal information about how the app is used. This includes information such as device type, operating system version, general location (country or region), and in-app interactions (for example, design generation events and feature usage frequency). We do not collect direct personal identifiers such as your name, email address, or personal contact information through analytics tools. Firebase Analytics may assign an anonymous identifier to your device or app instance for statistical purposes. This information helps us understand app performance, improve features, and enhance user experience. This analytics data is anonymized and is not linked to your personal identity. For additional details regarding our service providers, please refer to Section Section 4: Sharing of Your Information.
Crash Logs and Diagnostics: To maintain a high-quality experience, we utilize Google Firebase Crashlytics for crash reporting and diagnostics. If the app encounters an error or crash, Crashlytics will collect relevant technical information such as device model, operating system version, and a crash trace (what went wrong in the code). These reports help us identify and fix issues. Crash reports do not include personal content from your app usage (for example, your photos or designs are not included in crash logs). Crashlytics assigns an installation ID to identify error reports from the same device, but this ID is not used to identify you personally.
Device Permissions: Depending on your usage, the app may request certain device permissions, such as access to your photo gallery or camera (to enable you to select or capture photos for design). These permissions are strictly used for the stated purposes (selecting photos). We do not collect or scan your device for any data beyond the images you choose to use. If you grant access to your camera or photos, the images you take or select are handled as described above under User Photos and Content.
Payment and Subscription Information: AI GIF Photo offers auto-renewing subscription plans (e.g., weekly or yearly subscriptions). Purchases and subscriptions are processed through the Apple App Store. We do not collect or store your financial information (such as credit card numbers) on our servers. Payment processing is handled by the platform provider Apple under their secure systems. We may receive confirmation from the platform that you have started a trial or subscribed (for example, transaction identifiers or subscription status), which we use only to unlock premium features and manage your subscription benefits in the app. We do not have access to your full payment details. Please refer to Apple’s payment policies for more details on how they handle your payment data.
2.2. Data We Collect for AI Features
The App includes AI-powered features such as AI Logo Generator, AI GIF Generator, AI Object Remove, AI Background, AI Art Generator, BG Remover, AI Replace, Photo Enhancer, Photo Colorize, Photo Descratch, AI Illusion Art Generator and others.

We retain data only as long as necessary to complete the requested task. It is deleted after processing and permanently removed from our servers within 24 hours.. By using our AI tools, you consent to the processing of your data as described in this section.What Data We Collect:
Photos (Uploaded Images):
When you use features such as BG Remove, AI Replace, Photo Enhance, Photo Colorize, and similar services, the photos you upload are processed on our secure servers to generate the requested results. Photos remain image content only — we do not extract, retain, or store facial recognition data or structured biometric identifiers. Images are used solely to deliver the requested results and are never used for advertising, profiling, third-party sale, or AI model training.
Text Prompts(Processed by OpenAI as a Third-Party Service Provider):
When you enter a text prompt for features such as AI Logo, AI Video, AI Replace, AI Art, or AI Background, the text you provide is securely transmitted in real time to OpenAI via its API as a third-party service provider solely for prompt refinement and enhancement prior to content generation. OpenAI processes only the text you voluntarily submit. No photos or images are sent to OpenAI. Text prompts are used exclusively for prompt improvement and are never used for advertising, profiling, third-party sale, or independent AI model training. We adhere to OpenAI’s privacy and data handling policies to help ensure your information remains secure.For more information about our service providers, please refer to Section 4: Sharing of Your Information.
How We Collect Data:
You provide photos and text prompts directly to us when you use the AI features of AI GIF Photo.

We do not access, collect, or process photos without your explicit action.
Storage and Retention:
User-uploaded photos and text prompts are stored locally on your device and may be temporarily transmitted to our secure servers hosted by Amazon Web Services (AWS) for processing. Text prompts may also be securely transmitted in real time to OpenAI solely for prompt refinement prior to content generation. Photos and text prompts are automatically removed from active processing systems immediately after the requested task is completed. We retain data only as long as necessary to complete the requested task. It is deleted after processing and permanently removed from our servers within 24 hours.
